Lexus ES: The Comfortable Luxury Sedan

The ES is Lexus's mid-size luxury sedan, renowned for its quiet comfort, refinement, available hybrid power, and exceptional value.

A core Lexus model since the brand launched in 1989, the ES is a front-wheel-drive (later available all-wheel drive) luxury sedan prioritizing serene comfort, quietness, and reliability over sporty dynamics. It shares much with the Toyota Avalon and Camry but adds genuine Lexus refinement.

The ES offers smooth V6 and efficient hybrid powertrains, a spacious and beautifully finished interior, and a famously comfortable ride. It has long been one of Lexus's best-selling and most beloved sedans.

The ES embodies Lexus's traditional strengths of comfort, quality, and value, making it a benchmark in the near-luxury sedan class.
