The much-loved sedan will get more luxury goodies and will be available only with hybrid or electric powerOverview
The comfortable Lexus ES sedan has been a perennial favorite at Consumer Reports, excelling in our road-test, reliability, and owner satisfaction scores. After seven years without any major updates, the ES is finally getting a full redesign.
The new ES is taller, wider, and longer than the current model. It will be available only as an efficient gas-electric hybrid or an all-electric model with up to a 300-mile estimated range between charges. A bold new exterior shares a few design cues with current Toyota models, and the interior is very streamlined. It also debuts an upgraded set of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS).
It competes with the Audi A6, BMW 5 Series/i5, Genesis G80/Electrified G80, and Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
It goes on sale in 2026. Price range is estimate to be $45,000 to $70,000.
