Five-year-old luxury sedan seems to be resting on its laurels for the coming season despite tough new opposition from BMW and Mercedes car auto cars
Other than that, it’s business as usual. The lineup of 250, 350, 300h powertrains and the five trims available last year is carried straight over, though inevitably prices have crept up. The most affordable, the base 350, cost $42,490 as a 2023 model but will set you back $43,190 dressed for 2024. At the other end of the scale the MSRP of the ES300h Ultra Luxury hybrid swells from $52,840 to $53,480, to which you’ll need to add $1,150 for delivery.
You might argue that Lexus didn’t need to do much more to take the ES into 2024. It’s the best-selling non-SUV Lexus by far and has dominated the gas-powered North American midsize luxury sedan space for years. In 2022, for example, the ES was more popular than the BMW 5-Series and Mercedes E-Class put together.But the Germans were old cars then and are brand new for 2024. Now it’s the five-year old ES that’s looking old, not to mention lacking a fully electric option.
