The more sedans that disappear from the market, the more I appreciate the ES.

@COMMANDERFOX31 10 ай бұрын

Sedans will never go anywhere. Yes, there have been more SUV purchases in the last decade but the popular sedans like the Camry, Corolla, Civic, ES/IS, Mazda 3, Elantra, etc. have all seen big sale numbers over the last few years because they are after all cheaper and more efficient. In this economy, not everyone wants a giant lifted vehicle that hogs 20mpg just to get to a local Walmart.

I actually really appreciate the USB-C ports. For a car that is almost certainly going to be drive for the next decade by most owners, it's much more future-proofed than having a bunch of USB-A ports everywhere. If I just wanted a car to get from point A to point B comfortably and reliably with some luxuries over like, an accord, this would be my car. I love the ES and I've always also loved the exterior design. Quite a handsome vehicle IMO

I did a 450 mile road trip in my 2023 ES 300h a couple days ago, it was fantastic, and I had almost a half tank of fuel left :O The mpg was slowly increasing the entire way, ending at a crazy 58mpg, going 68 miles an hour, with AC on, in normal driving mode. At first I thought the computer must have gotten it wrong, so I did the math myself and yep, 450 miles, just over half a tank does ball park 58mpg! The lane tracing is dependent on how good the lines on the road are, if the lines are good then it doesn't flinch, but if the lines are degraded then it can freak out occasionally.

Same as you, I almost immediately got into a wrestling match with the lane assist as well and described it to a friend the same way you did. It was a very forceful and almost ripped the wheel out of my hands. That was that...Turned it off and never thought about it again. Otherwise the car is fabulous. I use android auto and it is perfect. Soon as I start up my phone connects and goes to the screen. I use voice Control to do everything. So happy I chose this car. My poor highlander is pretty lonely these days unless I need it for hauling stuff or going biking etc. 42 mpg since I got it doing everything including putting it into sport mode and driving fast for a bit to see how it handled it.

in Camry it also affects the air con and Active Glide Control, and engine braking, this is what I noticed during my road trips, So I use normal for city, econ for highway, I do not like sport, because it tries to rev engine with every tiny foot move on accelerator pedal and makes it louder ;) And acceleration is the same with eco vs sport if you press the pedal to the metal, and this is my preferred way to accelerate with Camry.

Not sure why Lexus won't make more PHEV's...Problem is once you drive a PHEV a hybrid or ICE will never match the smoothness, comfort and quietness of a PHEV....It's night and day difference imo in terms of comfort...

@Sashazur Ай бұрын

The only difference between a regular hybrid and a PHEV is the latter has a bigger battery and you can plug it in. The performance and noise and ride etc are the same.

@pete64041 Ай бұрын

@@Sashazur That isn't true. I own a rx450h and an x50e. The x50e is considerably quieter and smoother. It's not even close...Also the batteries add 180 hp on top of the gas engine, so no the performance is not the same either.

I’m just afraid it won’t be the same as my gs which never disappoints

@davidpavlich8939 8 ай бұрын

As nice as the ES is, it’s not a GS nor was it meant to be. I drive a GS350 AWD, I’m in Canada, and smile every time I drive it. So far, I’ve replaced the battery and the wipers. Just a wonderful machine. Sad that it’s gone.

I remember the basic audio sys. of Lexus is JBL, correct me if I am wrong.

It's worth the upgrade to ML. The stock Pioneer isn't all that great unless you only listen to the news

Would you get a used ES 300H or Stelvio TI SPORT for around 30-35k USD ?

@alphonsusho8962 11 ай бұрын

ES 300H all the way if you’re buying. Reliable and low maintenance cost!

@Dano-MX5 10 ай бұрын

You are choosing between one of the most reliable vehicles and one of the worst for reliability. If you want to become best friends with your mechanic go for the Stelvio.

The engine sounds terrible when you are hard on the gas. Otherwise, it’s a nice and quiet car. I just hope Lexus drivers can stay in the right lane to enjoy their ES/other Lexus (excluding IS) and leave the left lane for people who drive faster.

If your Impala is reliable, sit tight with it. And I say that as an ES owner.

I think is hard to say, but this car is larger and longer than many cars, do you think that is a problem in cities ? In USA you have space but in Europe this kind of car should me hard to drive sometimes in narrow places.

simple question, some people say ES basically glorified camry because the same platform. where does the LS place in? bespoke platform or still same platform like camry/ES but upgraded?

@85CEKR 10 ай бұрын

Yes the ES is basically a Camry XSE but better in every way, the LS is a completely different car.

@timvibes 10 ай бұрын

Yes, same platform. Just stretched. Makes production cost lower.

@tonysterbenc 7 ай бұрын

Bespoke. Shares nearly nothing with the ES except some interior bits the ES borrowed in order to add some prestige.

@lorenfok1097 5 ай бұрын

Drive a Toyota Camry then drive the ES. Mechanical and drive train identical yes but the feel and actual driving experience is night and day difference. If you want practicality for a simple car to take you from point A to point B, Camry is the way to go. If you want that extra class and luxary ES is the way
