While Toyota offers a wide range of vehicles, from the Corolla to the performance-oriented GR Supra, Lexus focuses on luxury within a select group of models. Their sedan selection includes the sporty IS, the comfortable ES and its hybrid counterpart, and the top-of-the-line LS with a hybrid option as well.
Lexus boasts a substantial SUV lineup, with offerings like the UX hybrid, the NX series, and the RX series. They also provide the spacious TX series and the robust GX and LX, the latter a full-size companion to Toyota’s mid-size Land Cruiser.
Anticipation is building for the next generation of the Lexus ES, with rumors swirling and digital renderings circulating. Based on the TNGA-K platform, the upcoming ES might see a substantial refresh similar to the 2025 Camry, rather than a complete overhaul.
Lexus is expected to move towards a hybrid-only lineup for the next generation of the ES. While details remain under wraps, digital artists have been busy imagining the car’s potential design direction, both inside and out.
Speculation points to a comprehensive update for the ES, including a revamped hybrid system, a fresh look inside and out, and the integration of new tech features. The current 2024 ES offers a variety of choices, with the base ES 250 starting at $43,190 and boasting a 203-horsepower four-cylinder engine.
Those seeking more power can opt for the 302-horsepower V6 ES 350, while the fuel-efficient ES 350h hybrid delivers an impressive 44 mpg combined. With its blend of luxury and performance, the current ES paves the way for an exciting next chapter in the model’s history.
