Lexus ES Engines and Transmissions

Lexus ES engine choices include the gasoline 2.5 AT with a conventional automatic and the hybrid 2.5 CVT with a variable transmission. Both examples use front-wheel drive. The hybrid combines gasoline and electric power, particularly useful in stop-start traffic, while its transmission adjusts continuously rather than shifting through fixed gears.

Lexus ES Trims and Equipment

Lexus ES trim levels include Luxury and Premium equipment configurations for the gasoline 2.5 AT. These names distinguish equipment packages within the same technical version. When comparing cars, check features such as seat adjustment, climate controls and parking assistance on each example, since a trim badge alone does not establish its full specification.
