EXPERIENCE SOMETHING GREATER

From the start, Lexus has redefined luxury. The Japanese principle of Omotenashi brings unrivaled Guest hospitality, with a dedication to treating everyone with warmth, care and respect as if they were a Guest in our own home. Its cutting-edge design and exceptional attention to detail shows the meticulous craftsmanship of legendary Lexus Takumi Masters. Along with pioneering innovations, impassioned styling and a thirst for enhancing every drive, it’s a luxury experience unlike any other.

ALTER YOUR STATE OF DRIVE

After generations of success, the latest Lexus ES is forging a new, more ambitious path. Drivers familiar with the series will appreciate the emphasis on spaciousness, quiet driving acoustics and safety. For those who want more choice, the ESh offers a highly efficient Self-Charging Hybrid Electric system. The ES is also newly available in a luxurious All-Wheel Drive model, granting you traction and control when driving conditions demand it.

EVERY DETAIL, REFINED

The luxuriously appointed ES is an amazing place to be. Welcomed by a driver- focused cockpit, digital gauges and ergonomically superior seating. Expertly crafted stitching on the seats, steering wheel, instrument panel and gearshift is overseen by our `Takumi’ Master Craftspeople. Then, witness the exquisite interior trim that reflects the beauty of Japanese design traditions.

GO BEYOND ALL EXPECTATIONS

Enhancements in noise reduction and vibration allow you to focus on driving pleasure. Drive Mode Select gives customizable driving dynamics and suspension design that provide you with more than enough force to leave an impression. The first-ever ES 250 All-Wheel Drive automatically directs power to two or four wheels in response to changing driving conditions, offering even more stability and efficiency. With Dynamic Torque AWD, it can direct up to 50% of engine torque to rear wheel in response to acceleration from a start or spillage at front wheels. When AWD isn’t needed, rear drive axle can completely disengage, returning to 100% FWD.

Horsepower/Performance: Ratings achieved using the required premium unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 91 or higher. The Lexus Hybrids have nearly 70% fewer smog-forming emissions compared against similarly equipped conventional gasoline power vehicles. Based on North American sales data and Federal Tier 2 engine emission requirements.
Fuel Rating: Estimates determined using approved Government of Canada Test Methods. Actual fuel consumption will vary based on driving habits and other factors. Refer to the Government of Canada Fuel Consumption Guide for further information.
For all safety features, System effectiveness depends on many factors. Please see your Owner’s Manual for further information and a complete list of limitations and directions. Lane Departure Alert is designed to read the lane markers of certain roads. If the vehicle approaches the outer limits of its lane, the system warns the driver that corrective action may be required. It is not a collision-avoidance system and is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving.
Lane Trace Assist is designed to read the lane markers of certain roads. If the vehicle approaches the outer limits of its lane, the system warns the driver that corrective action may be required. It is not a collision-avoidance system and is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving. Do not rely exclusively on the Rear Cross-Traffic Alert System. There are limitations to the function, detection and range of the system. You should also look around outside your vehicle, over your shoulder and use your mirrors to confirm rearward clearance. Do not rely exclusively on the Blind Spot Monitor System to determine if a lane change is safe. Always look over your shoulder and use your turn signal before changing lanes. There are severe limits to the function, detection range and clarity of the monitor system.
Dynamic/Radar Cruise Control was designed to assist the driver and is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving practices.
The Pre-collision System is designed to help reduce the crash speed and damage in certain frontal collisions only. It is not a collision avoidance system and is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving. System effectiveness depends on many factors, such as speed, driver input and road conditions. Automatic High Beam feature can help improve vision at night. However, conditions such as a dirty windshield, rapidly changing light conditions or hilly terrain will limit effectiveness so the driver may need to manually adjust the high beams from on to off.
Brake Assist is designed to help the driver take full advantage of the benefits of ABS. It is not a substitute for safe driving practices. Braking effectiveness also depends on proper brake system maintenance and tire and road conditions. All the airbag (“AB”) systems are Supplemental Restraint Systems. All ABs (if installed) are designed to inflate only under certain conditions and in certain types of severe collisions: frontal and knee ABs typically inflate in frontal collisions; side and side curtain ABs in side collisions; Roll-Sensing Curtain ABs at a severe tilt degree, roll or lateral G-force.[CN1]
The Navigation System is designed to assist in locating an address or point of interest. Discrepancies may be encountered between the system and your actual location. Road system changes may affect the accuracy of the information provided. Rely on your common sense to decide whether to follow a specified route. Detailed coverage not available for every city or roadway. Periodic updates available at an additional cost. See your Navigation System Owner’s Manual for further details.
