The RC200t is simply to lower the price of entry to those who want a Lexus RC, same with the GS200t. It also puts Lexus on par with competitive offerings. Those who want performance know to step up to the F or some future 6 cylinder powertrain.
Unless it was already announced, I'd wager a turbo 4 will find its way under the hood of the Q60 as an entry level

Considering how many IS250's were sold, I think most people will find RC200t plenty fast.

Earlier this year they were talking about a TT 3.0L V6 for the new Q60 coupe..
Turbo motors these days can certainly have 120 HP/L so I would think we should expect at least 360 HP for the car.
If they add the current hybrid system (54 HP), then we will be at 414 for an initial quesstimate.

Unfortunately (for Infiniti fans) not. The turbo 4 is reported to be the same engine as in the QX30 which is the A class version with 210 hp. Volume engine is to be the 300 hp TT 3 liter V-6 which should match or exceed the performance of the current 3.7. The 400 hp will come in a special edition with a pretty steep price tag, It should be faster than the C class 450 AMG, but no match for the AMG 6.3.

Not too bad overall. Just strange seeing those rubber "springs" below the rear light reflectors.

It looks more like an American car rather than Japanese.
Yes, dated interior especially for a coupe.
Infiniti should be able to find better photographers. Most of those pictures are way too artificial.

I agree, the interior does not match the freshness of the exterior. Not too many cars come out with an all new body, but carry over an existing dashboard.
