The Lexus RC is lacking of overall space but the touch of luxury is present inside its cabin. A number of posh materials such as synthetic leather and soft plastics make up its well-built interior. Its seats can accommodate up to four people on supple support. Nonetheless, space is generally lacking as mentioned before which also applies to its seats especially in the back row.

The Bottom Line

The Mercedes-Benz CLA Coupe boasts a well-built cabin that comes loaded with plenty of tech advances. Comfort and space are also aplenty for adults to last through those longer drives. On the other hand, the 2021 Lexus RC requires an upgrade of its cabin space and overall performance that feels lackluster even throughout shorter commutes. Its fuel efficiency is also relatively poor as compared to the CLA Coupe and is not a good investment factor for the long run.
