Thanks, thought so but when I was looking at Autotrader couldn't find one with the placard. They were all used so maybe they were removed.
I believe the Hybrid badges are present for non-American 500H. If you go to Lexus.com, there’s no hybrid badge on the side in the pics. But if you go outside of the US, the badges are present.

thanks, that’s interesting information to know! Appreciate it.
I read somewhere that Lexus got rid of the hybrid badging for the 2024 MY. So much so that even the typical blue background of the L logo (designating a hybrid) has been eliminated. The only way you can tell anymore that an LC500 is a hybrid is that the rear badge still says LC500h. Why they did this is a mystery to me. To my knowledge, all other Toyota/Lexus cars still have the hybrid badging and logo coloring. Weird.

perhaps they want to mainstream hybrid now, it's not so much of a special thing.
i think if i had to do over, i might have got the hybrid lc instead of the v8. but they're rarer than sasquatch in the u.s.
Here in Paris France I have hesitated very much between the V8 and the hybrid. The latest was the most reasonable choice. Still quite a performant car.
I'm confused reading through all these posts. I thought you could only get the real wheel steering with the dynamic handling package, not the sport package? How were you able to get a Sport model with rear wheel steering, unless that's available to add outside the US?

here in Europe the rear wheel steering is standard with the sport + model.
Out and In form my underground parking today for the first time since I switched models and I can confirm that it easier with the rear steering wheels. No that much but enough to facilitate and to avoid scratching front bumper.
still I ´m surprised with the frame noise when turning through the ramp to exit. Thought these LC frames would be more rigid.
