2022 Lexus ES 300h Luxury

It drives smoothly and quietly, with a continuously variable transmission that keeps the engine hushed around town, though it gets a bit buzzy under hard throttle. The cabin is hushed and well-built, with comfortable seats and a spacious rear bench that makes it a pleasant place for long trips. The Luxury trim adds a power sunroof, blind-spot monitoring, and heated front seats over the Premium, while the Ultra Luxury goes further with semi-aniline leather and rear lighting. It's powered by a 2.5L I4 hybrid that produces 215 horsepower, and the eight-speed automatic works with the hybrid system to deliver 44 mpg combined without plugging in.
