Introduction

The Lexus ES is an award-winning midsize luxury sedan. Here at Kelley Blue Book, we’ve made it a multiple winner of our Best Buy award for its class, and made Lexus a Best Brand in the luxury arena many times. The ES is a typical Lexus, with exceptional build quality, fine materials, a smooth ride, impressive reliability, and loads of equipment for a highly competitive price. The Lexus ES is a rare thing among luxury cars because not only is the starting price tempting, but it also retains its value better than any rival.

Apart from that impressive value proposition and the fact that it also achieves decent fuel economy, the 2022 ES is renowned for its easy-going manner and generous cabin space, especially for rear passengers. All-wheel drive is available, so is a hybrid drivetrain. The 2022 Lexus ES is a solid option for buyers considering a luxury sedan.

KBB Review Highlights

In a class of fantastic contenders like the BMW 5 Series, Audi A6, Mercedes-Benz E-Class, Volvo S90, and the Genesis G80, the more affordable 2022 Lexus ES establishes itself as a value leader. This generation of ES launched in 2019, and the 2022 version receives an updated infotainment system (addressing one of the few gripes about the ES), updates to the driver assistance features, and a few mild styling tweaks. A Dynamic Handling package also becomes available for F Sport versions, but sportiness isn’t really the first, second, or even third thing that comes to mind when we think about the Lexus ES.

The lineup includes the gasoline-only ES 250 AWD (with all-wheel drive and a 4-cylinder engine), the ES 350 (running a V6), and the ES 300h hybrid. Since Toyota is the parent company behind Lexus, we can rest easy in the knowledge that this hybrid setup will perform its duties admirably. Even the entry-level ES 250 AWD has an eye on economy, with an intelligent system that can detect the need for all-wheel drive automatically and apply as needed. The V6-powered ES 350 model deploys front-wheel drive (FWD) and delivers a forceful 302 horsepower. The hybrid ES 300h (also front-wheel-drive) can travel up to 44 miles on a gallon of gas, yet still packs sufficient pep for commutes as well as longer trips.

With more rear legroom than most of the class, the high-quality cabin also offers elegant color schemes, while F Sport models feature aluminum accents inspired by ancient Japanese swords. A powered moonroof is also available. The infotainment system comes with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto phone integration and Wi-Fi capability, plus a high-resolution 8-inch or 12.3-inch touchscreen (depending on the variant).
