@@AI-qd4vb "Arguably stiffer than anything Toyota has ever put in that class." I suspect this comment may have been true of Toyota/Lexus pre-2018, but the new chassis on the current ES is a huge upgrade in stiffness, augmented by 65 feet of structural adhesive and 120 laser screw welds (which can be placed closer together than old-school linear weld points). The result was a car so solid that Wall Street Journal tester Dan Neil specifically called out that trait, speculating that Lexus probably overspent to over-engineer the car because of its pivotal role as the first ES marketed in the prestige-critical home market of Japan. Give one a drive over the rough stuff.

I really love how you make a review seem like a talk between friends and at the same time, go into much more detail than anyone else out there. Kudos.

For those that dont get it, you cant cross shop an ES with a BMW 3/4 series or Audi a3'a4 or even a5. It is a massive vehicle, bigger than a 5 series, smaller than a 7 series, and bigger than an audi a6. That is why the IS and the ES are similar in price, your choice is size/drive train. IS is smaller, rear wheel drive, and aims at the 3 series directly (although it isnt very competitive because its down on things like trunk space and power) but the ES is a front wheel drive giant ocean liner. Nothing in the german market can come close to it as far as size/$. 45 grand for a tiny almost toy like a3 vs a proper battle ship? its your preference, do you want to drop money on a small but fun car that has the luxury too, or drop it on the most refined cruiser in its price bracket. The hybrid vs regular, its up to you. I would take the regular v6 as it is very quick and still gets good gas mileage. If you are worried about toyotas hybrid system, my friend bought a 06 highlander hybrid in 2020...It runs like new.

Daniel G - If your solely basing your decision on pricing around $45-50k, than yes, you’re limiting yourself if you want a larger luxury cruiser. I was actually in the market for a new car last year since I crashed my 2013 Avalon Limited, and you are right the 19/20 ES is large. It actually uses same platform as the Avalon, so I know the size very well. And so when I needed a replacement, I wanted a larger car, so I looked at BMW 540i, Audi A6 Prestige, and the 2019 ES Ultra Luxury. (I cared more about comparable SIZE and not pricing). LOVED this ES for its quietness and refinement. Drove an ES with the optional noise-cancelling wheels, double-pane acoustics glass and sound deadening underbody. So if you’re into comfort, serenity, and complete reliability, you can’t go wrong with this car. And for the money, you get A LOT more with the Lexus. The Lexus was $49k fully loaded with all options, vs $67k for Audi and $75k for BMW. For my story, I really loved the ES but ended up with the Audi A6 only b/c *Audi had a much better overall safety technology package.* A few things which the Germans do A LOT better Lexus right now is their radar detection and autonomous drive modes. Lexus’ Lane Keep Assist and Dynamic Cruise Control is kind of a joke. The DCC is way too jerky in stop/go traffic and the distance kept is way too far. And Lexus Blind Spot Monitoring is okay but only works when cars are actually IN your blind spot, while Audi can even detect Fast approaching cars further away and actually will warn you based on your car’s speed _relative to the approaching car’s speed._ Now that’s much more advanced technology Lexus needs to catch up on. 3D camera on Lexus looks low res compared to the camera on the Audi. Of course with all the technology, it’s not surprising I spent nearly $20k more than the Lexus.

I agree with you but I,m not a big fan of speed. Mpg and the refinement of toyota,s hybrid system is what I,ll go for. So I,ll take the hybrid over the v6. The v6 is fast and has good mileage though, so if your,re someone that,s into speed, you can't go wrong with the v6. That,s just not my thing. The rumour is that the next Lexus IS and Lexus RC will come with the skyactiv x engine from mazda along with mazda,s own mazda 6. All with rear wheel drive. And german luxury vehicles have always had issues with their electronics. It,s well known. And they generally cost a lot maintain. But then again, german luxury brands seem to be for 2 kinds of people 1) rich people who don't mind burning money on maintenance costs 2) people who like the status of driving a german car brand Lexus as a whole on the other hand seem to be geared not towards the rich but towards the upper middle class with very little maintenance cost, they seem to not put all the technology in it to make it affordable because it will cost like 20,000 dollars more, although the upcoming lexus LQ will be a model geared towards the rich.

my favorite car review channel by far. the production is flawless and so on the point, no extras. very mature

I have to say, I'm pretty sure I watch the majority of car reviews on KZread, and by far your intro for your car reviews are the best I've ever seen. I don't know how you found the perfect song to relate to the Lexus ES but you did. Also your photography skills are incredible. It literally looks like I'm watching an official Lexus commercial.

Excellent review and I’ll say why. Most reviewers review this car, and because it isn’t an enthusiast’s type of car, they discredit it. But reviews should be done, with the potential buyer in mind.

The most competent and objective review of a Lexus I've ever come across. The narration is at the same time informative and honestly passionate. The production is unbelievable near poetry. This channel is outstanding. 👏

I love the way you go through and talk about the interior. No other reviewer does it as well as you do.

When I had my Lexus I drove several 2018 and earlier ES models as loaners, and then I got a 2019 as a loaner. It is a night-and-day difference between this new one and the old ones. Lexus really hit a home run with the redesign. It's quieter, smoother, and has a far nicer interior - and the outside is better looking too. Overall I love it. It's not really my first choice if I could only have one car, but as a daily runner it'd be amazing.

I would love to see a video of what it takes to make your beautiful content. Including your setups, camera sliders , drone footage, editing, etc. Your production value can't be touched by any other car review channel including the big guys. Keep up the awesome work

I have a 2019 Lexus 300 h. I am 77 and LOVE THIS CAR. It easily gets 46+ mpg on the highway. Everyone has an SUV which is why I wanted the sedan.

Thanks for the audio system break down. Much appreciated.

I ended up buying the 2022 Luxury edition of this car based in no small part on this excellent review. Absolutely adore the car. The interior is so nice it feels like a weight comes off my shoulders as soon as I get in. Thanks to the sound isolation, amazing audio system, and driving assists like radar cruise control and lane keep my exhausting hour long stop-and-go commute has changed from a source of stress to a relaxing time. And while it's definitely not a sporty car, coming from an average economy car the acceleration and engine sound was a huge upgrade (even if it pales in comparison to more dedicated sports cars).

With the upgraded center console and carplay, other than that trackpad this is now a 10/10 interior. I am super excited for Lexus to finally be back with some really competitive offerings.

Fantastic review and totally agree. I recently took an Uber in a brand new ES and was blown away by the interior, comfort and quietness. Perfect for where I live, Los Angeles, where you spend most of your time crawling in traffic. Definitely giving this a hard look when my 5 series lease is up.

Wow! It really is one of the best channels of many car review channels I've seen so far! And the guy describes all the details so stunningly calm that intrigues everyone and anyone. And I love Cars of TOYOTA Family! And BTW Thanks a lot for ultra informative review!

I have this car, 2019 ultra luxury version. Only difference is the 2020 has android auto. The 2019 doesnt. It's very hard finding an ultra luxury. I had to fly to northern ca to get the ultra luxury in pearl white. I do love this car. I get 45 mpg as advertised. In awful traffic i get 50mpg because of the slower driving speeds allowing more ev mode use. The Mark Levinson sounds great. It doesnt distort. 2 features that i dont really use often are the HUD and electronic rear sunscreen, but they're cool to have. I also have the triple beam lights, an expensive upgrade but worth it. They have the added functionality of turning to illuminate the road ahead when you're making a left or right hand turn. I can say lots about this car, but dont want to write a super long comment.

I'm on my 3rd RX, first Hybrid (450H). Every Lexus I have owned has been flawless. I love the hybrid for the cool tech, and the (slightly) improved gas mileage. It's fun driving around the neighborhood in all-electric mode virtually silent- the only drawback is that people sometimes step in from of the car because they can't hear it coming. I will always choose Lexus over European brands for their exceptional reliability, and high re-sale value. Thanks for the excellent review sir.

By the way I like that the front doors on ES are large, I’m “tall” and have to push back the seat more than typical, in most cars the B pillar gets in my way of my left elbow, and I can’t rest my elbow in the door card. ES feels perfectly sized for someone +6’ tall.

No doubt that the ES is one of the most reliable new cars on sale today but it's a shame that they shifted production for NA models to Kentucky in 2016, whereas they used to be made exclusively in Japan. The RX is made in Canada and has stood the test of time, but I'm skeptical about American manufacturing standards.

Ugliest ever grille is the sole reason that prevents me from buying a Lexus. I have absolutely no doubt on their reliability & durability which really matters in the long run.

I sat in this car at the autoshow in February 2020. I must say it was so nice and roomy inside for a tall person. It made me feel 'special' sitting inside it, like I finally arrived if I owned one. You know this car is a great car when airports are using it as limousine fleet cars in the hybrid version. A testament to its reliability and performance. It was easy to fall in love with this car. It stood out from everything else in the luxury sedan category by far and at an amazingly affordable price point fully loaded.

Nobody ever comments about the unique intro music if each video which captures the essence of each car and is the summary of the whole review in about 10 seconds.

I've got a 2014 ES300H, I test drove a 2014 ES350 before I bought it and I prefer the hybrid. It's quieter, smoother due to no shifts and less nvh, no delay from waiting for a downshift and really has plenty of power and response from the electric torque. I put 300 miles a day on it and absolutely love it.

At the 8min mark you made a great point. I did not buy my ES Hybrid for its performance or to take around bends fast or for it to be a "fun" car. I got it because it's comfortable, it's quiet, it's great on fuel and I feel at peace with myself when I drive it. That ladies and gentlemen is why you get an ES hybrid.

I have to say Mark, that you don’t mince your word during you reviews. Following that I was able to secure 2015 RC350 V6 for nearly 1/2 the new cost and am loving using it for my daily ride. Thanks mate.

Great video. It brightens up my day, especially if one can see how much you like a product. I am surely looking at Lexus sedans, but in Germany there are not many offered. That is part of why I am interested too. Great cars, that are not like all the others on the road but not too flashy that you get noticed all the time. Perfect blend.

Scotty will love one of these 10 years from now

I used to work for Lexus. One time a customer asked me if I would buy the ES myself, I told her my real response right away, nope. But I added I would buy this car for my mom. It's just not a driver's car but its such a good regular car.

I had to have some piddly work done to my RC a while back (some mechanic left a shop rag in my air conditioning system somehow) and the local Lexus place gave me one of these as a loaner so I could go to work. I thought it was absolutely fantastic, the interior is way nicer than my RC, and in traffic it was really nice on the commute. I think this is an ideal daily commuter car or primary family car.

Among the most honest, objective opinions for the lexus es300h! Spot on!

ES suits you mr.Goose

I’ve just watched this video on 22/7/2022 and when he said I know fuel prices are low I said to myself wait till you see what’s coming 😳

After my wife's 250h was totalled by a hit-and-run driver earlier this year, we picked up an off-lease 2018 ES300h. This was before used prices became silly, so we were able to pick the car up for about half the price of a new one. I was thrilled that we were able to source one with the Mark Levinson sound system, because it is divine sounding. I was also pleased that the car has a nice iPod interface, so I can have all my music along with me on long road trips. Other than that, it is a super comfortable, super quiet luxurious sedan with unbelievable gas mileage that's perfect for long road trips. Me, personally, I prefer more sporty vehicles, so I'm sticking with my 6-Speed Manual Acura TSX, but my wife loves this car and it does make for very pleasant vacation road trips.

It's worth noting that the 2018 described here is materially different from the car in this video in numerous ways: chassis, ride and handling, dimensions, previous generation of the hybrid powertrain, different stereo, for starters.

I drove even a 2003 ES300 and I was blown away by how smooth it was. I couldn't believe that type of car could be picked up for $4k. The engine and transmission felt like they were in a different room.

Certainly better than anything from Europe.

anything from Europe? All of the worlds best and fastest and most luxurious cars come from Europe. Japan doesn't have anything to compete with Ferrari, Lambo, Mclaren, Bentley, Rolls Royce, Bugatti, Koenigsegg, Pagani, Porsche, AMG, M.

Just happy to see a Toyota vehicle that doesn’t have an outdated interior. Very nice car.

Fully loaded Avalon quite comparable.Doesn't even need to be a Hybrid, but must be accompanied with both Apple & Android car play.

Still enjoying my 2010 ES. Starts every day and quietly gets me where I’m going. This looks like a nice upgrade...when they fix the electronics.

If/When the day comes again to buy a new vehicle Marc's reviews pro and con will be the single greatest influence on my buying decision. His unique ability it zero in on key areas of consideration or concern have no equal in internet land.

I have the ‘19 gas premium version of this car. I love it so much. I wish I had the triple beam headlights, and the auto folding mirrors the ‘20s get now but still love it

Im 21 and i want one

Mr Savage Geese, love all of your videos and how you go in depth into the sound system! If you need a video idea, could you please make a video for best audio systems in “affordable” cars (

I currently drive a 2016 GS350 F-Sport & have driven both versions of the ES as loaner vehicles while my car was being serviced. First drove the ES350 which I didn't like since it had too much power for a 300 + HP FWD vehicle. Then I drove the ES300h which I like it more than I thought I would & much more than the 350. It was also the first hybrid I've ever driven. It had good power & showed it was averaging nearly 50 MPG. I'm sticking with my GS for now since I just bought the car two years ago, but my future vehicle will for sure be a hybrid or electric.
