Depart no stone unturned, proper? I’ve really baggage examined the Lexus LC 500 earlier than, however that was the coupe. And with it, I used to be capable of match a stunning quantity of stuff inside. Admittedly, by benefiting from the again seat.
The LC 500 Convertible, nonetheless, is a distinct story. It has 4.7 cubic-feet in comparison with the coupe’s 5.4, and whereas seven-tenths of a dice could quantity to nothing in SUVs and household sedans, it may be a make-or-break quantity after we’re speaking tiny trunks like these.
It is also essential to notice the LC 500h hybrid has the identical trunk because the Convertible. Each the hybrid battery and Convertible roof rob the identical quantity of actual property from the usual trunk, which additionally explains why there is no LC 500h convertible.
Right here is the trunk in query. It certain is small, however the opening is definitely fairly massive, in order that’s good.
You will be aware there’s some little thingies inside it, although.
This can be a tire inflator equipment. And no, it will not match underneath the ground.
This can be a first assist equipment, which does not appear to be the perfect use of trunk house, however hey, individuals get ouchies. I made a decision to stuff it on high of the tire inflator field for this check.
Now to the luggage, as if we’re actually going to want the total boilerplate description of them. As with each Baggage Take a look at, I take advantage of two midsize curler suitcases that might must be checked in on the airport (26 inches lengthy, 16 large, 11 deep), two black roll-aboard suitcases that simply barely match within the overhead (24L x 15W x 10D), and one smaller inexperienced roll-aboard that matches simply (23L x 15W x 10D). I additionally embrace my spouse’s fancy in a single day bag simply to spruce issues up a bit (21L x 12W x 12D).
Possibility A: the largest bag, and a few house left over for a grocery bag or two. Positively not the flowery bag.
Possibility B: One of many medium black baggage and smaller inexperienced bag. That is all she wrote for the convertible.
Possibility C: Purchase an LC 500 Coupe as an alternative, through which case you’ll be able to match the largest bag and one of many medium black baggage with some room to spare. Alternatively, you’ll be able to match two of the medium baggage and the flowery bag.
Now, I didn’t load up the again seat as I did with the Coupe.
First, driving round with the highest down and your again seat full of bags simply says you’ve got made a poor vehicular alternative. Or are incapable of packing gentle.
Second, I didn’t wish to put soiled baggage wheels on this check automobile’s lovely white leather-based. There is no method an proprietor would try this until they had been fleeing some disaster and their LC 500 was the one means accessible.
Nonetheless, this is the rest of my baggage within the again seat of the coupe. Would the Convertible’s extra upright seatback angle stop this identical quantity from occurring? Most likely, however this identical quantity of things may at the least match within the Hybrid’s again seat.
Lastly, yet one more studying from the Coupe check …
A golf bag suits within the trunk with the driving force positioned individually. Given the Convertible solely loses house within the forward-most portion of the trunk, it must also be capable of match this identical golf bag. Now, may I’ve unearthed this golf bag from my storage to search out out for certain? I assume, however this appears enough. I am calling this stone sufficiently overturned.
