The updated seventh-generation Lexus ES is a sedan with an emphasis on comfort. When choosing a version, consider how its powertrain will suit your daily traffic and the way you accelerate.
Lexus ES engine options include the gasoline 2.0 i CVT and the 2.5 i Hybrid CVT, both with front-wheel drive. The hybrid’s electric assistance can reduce fuel use in stop-start traffic. Both use continuously variable transmissions, so engine revs can stay high during strong acceleration without conventional gear changes.
