The 2023 Lexus ES enters the new model year with minor changes, including expanded F Sport packages and a redesigned center console that does away with the brand’s unloved touchpad interface.<\/p>\n

Lexus’ bestselling sedan, the ES is related to the Toyota Camry and was last redesigned for the 2019 model year<\/a>, with some updates since then.<\/p>\n

Similar to the IS sedan<\/a>, the ES is now available with F Sport Design and F Sport Handling packages, depending on the model. Available with all powertrains, the F Sport Design Package builds on the Premium Package, adding 19-inch gloss black wheels and F Sport front and rear bumpers that aim to add a sportier touch to the carryover exterior styling.<\/p>\n

Front-wheel drive models can also be equipped with an F Sport Handling Package with adaptive dampers, Sport+ and Custom drive modes, a heated steering wheel, aluminum interior trim, and the parking sensors that are optional on F Sport Design-equipped models. This appears similar to the Dynamic Handling Package offered on 2022 models<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The main change inside is a new center console that now includes a sunglass holder and removes the touchpad controller in favor of a touchscreen. Lexus also moved the cupholder and includes a wireless charging pad as well. Macadamia also replaces Rich Cream for the 2023 interior color palette. The car comes standard with an 8.0-inch touchscreen and a 12.3-inch touchscreen is optional.<\/p>\n

No mechanical changes have been made, so the lineup still includes three main variants. The front-wheel ES 350 has a 3.5-liter V-6 producing 302 hp and 267 lb-ft of torque, harnessed to an 8-speed automatic transmission. The ES 300h hybrid uses a 2.5-liter inline-4 with Lexus’ familiar hybrid system, generating 215 hp and 163 lb-ft of torque. The hybrid powertrain is also available solely with front-wheel drive.<\/p>\n

Lexus also offers the all-wheel-drive ES 250 that first appeared for 2021<\/a>, but that means downgrading to a 2.5-liter inline-4 without hybrid assist. Coupled to an 8-speed automatic transmission like the V-6, this engine is rated at 203 hp and 184 lb-ft of torque. The ES 250 is the slowest ES variant, with a Lexus-quoted 0-60 mph time of 8.6 seconds, compared to 6.6 seconds and 8.1 seconds for the ES 350 and ES 300h, respectively.<\/p>\n

The Lexus Safety System 2.5+ complement of driver aids also carries over from 2022. It includes expected features like automatic emergency braking and adaptive cruise control, as well as automated lane centering.<\/p>\n

Pricing starts at $43,460 (including a $1,150 destination charge) for both the ES 350 and all-wheel-drive ES 250 models; the ES 300h hybrid starts at $44,840 with destination. The 2023 Lexus ES is scheduled to arrive at dealerships later this fall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
