I have owned both a 1992 Lexus SC400 and 2007 GX470. All were incredible machines. My 2015 Es300h continues the commitment to excellence that will always have me driving a Lexus. The ES300h is smooth, quiet, spacious, and easy on the pocket book. Another winner for sure.

Spot on review! I have a 2015 Es300, and I bought it for exactly the reason you stated: luxurious, smooth, quiet, comfortable drive for commuting. I spend hours a day in the car commuting and I have never questioned the price tag of this car. I had a BMW before this car, and I enjoy my Lexus hands down more. It's the most beautiful, comfortable car to spend time in. The brakes did take a bit to get used to, but now, I think they're great too. I never come to a slam stop. It's just as smooth as the drive. Great review, and fair.
You have a great voice for the reviews. The Terms of Endearment Music is hilarious. Don't ever get rid of that. I play your video back in half time and it is pretty funny. Do it and you will see what I mean. Subscribed!
Ha! We've learned that barring any extreme car buying circumstances, going with your heart allows for more enjoyment over the span of ownership, Lukas. Sometimes the practical choice gets boring fast and makes you want to get rid of it sooner. That being said, this 300h hybrid was a nice car. Not as fun as a GS, but still a nice car. You may want to check out our review on the Avalon hybrid, too. That was another surprising experience. Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/Vw1460CK61o/видео.html Good luck and thanks for watching!
I'm deciding between the 300h and 350 as well, leaning towards the 350 because I've heard mixed reviews about CVT's plus I could use the extra trunk space.
I have the GS350, the mileage is definitely not great if you drive a lot, we've not gone of 18mpg city ever and I do believe he said this ES runs on regular gas - the GS can run more or less ok on regular, but not recommended.
g352007 Thank you for the kind words, g352007. We appreciate it. Are you currently driving a 2007 G35? Chris (our host) has been rather fond of Infiniti vehicles. Thanks for watching!
As an owner of the same make and model of this Lexus, I couldn't have said it better myself. I'm completely satisfied with mine based on my needs and wants between comfort, luxury and style. Also, I have "Atomic Silver." 😁
Great review. It was a toss up between purchasing the ES350 or the ES300h this past January, but in the end, I went with the ES350 Ultra Luxury Package. Love the car. The ride, quality and handling are phenominal.
The 350 only averages 25-26 mpg, Chizerz. That's the difference between filling up every week and driving 1-1/2 to 2 weeks before having to stop for gas. It adds up, if only a little. Not to mention, this car is 5 years old so Lexus' hybrid tech may have improved some since then. Hope this helps and thanks for watching.
Unfortunately, it wasn't back then, Pine Cedar, since we were still fairly new to this whole video thing back then. You may find our newer stuff a little better though.
Yikes- your background music is way too loud, it overpowers your dialog. Didn't notice this before, so I assume it is your new standard. If so I'm outa here.
Fair Trade We're car guys first, Fair Trade, not professional video producers, so we are constantly evolving with our videos. Our primary focus is to make videos of cars that we experience so that others can enjoy them too. We'd love for you to continue supporting both the videos that we do well, along with those that we hope to continue improving. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
You said guy..You are car professionals promoting cars not resorts and spas..so keep it simple and straight to the point. its too bad. i would have liked to keep watching your video. And Fair trade has a very good point.
Mark-Antoine Basha Gotcha. Did you check out any of our more recent videos to see if they are more to your liking, or has this one remained your focus?
AutoAcademics There are other videos out there that don't have annoying music. I would have loved to hear what you have to say, but I'd rather not have to try to sort the words from the music if I don't have to.
i wish you didn't have this annoying background music playing..It's very distracting, I stopped watching the rest of the video..I would have like to hear what the engine sounded like.
Unfortunately, there was not much of an engine sound to listen to, Mark-Antoine Basha, seeing as how this was a hybrid vehicle. However, we appreciate your comments and your opinion. Thanks for trying to watch, anyway.
Glen W. Ford Thank you for sharing, as well, Glen W. Ford. We didn't realize the background music would get such attention. At any rate, we appreciate your comments and thank you for watching.
Thank you for your reiteration of what others have already said, Kay Hopkins. But do not fret, we've already fired the acoustic guitarist from this video and have procured someone else. Hopefully bagpipes will do the trick! LOL At any rate, if you feel like giving our channel another try, check out some of our newer reviews. Maybe there's something more to you liking. Thanks for watching!
That was disappointing… which is sad. Awesome car, but WAY over the top in terms of presentation. A public speaking or acting class would be a huge benefit for this fellow. 😮
We appreciate your comments, Alan Grofield. We admit that while we've always been car guys/gals, we've had to learn how to be videographer, presenter, etc. But over the years, we believe we have improved tremendously so if you get the chance, check out one of our more recent reviews. Thanks for watching.
I owned a 2013 Lexus Es 300h Premium with 80k After totally my 08 g37 coupe and i absolutely hated this car. The handling was horrible. Every time i turned my wheel all the way the tires would squeel, the car was slow. Not super attractive. It got good mpgs and fancy looking dash but the annoying seatbelt beep that wont shut up (the 2020 Q50 doesnt even do that) it yells at you when you leave anything cracked or opened, seriously hated that car. Fwd on a Lexus? It was terrible. It even had a "Sport" mode option 😂😂 the cars 0-60 was 8 seconds. Get an Infiniti better cars, nicer cars, cheaper cars and more enjoyable cars. Im glad this car is gone. That EV mode wont work going over 20mph or accelerating like a normsl person. Dont waste your $. This car is terrible. Former owner.

what's your warm-weather average MPG ?
I have a 2013 ES300h - best car I've ever had - quiet, smooth, comfortable, 40 mpg, great stereo.
Enjoy your car, Lemur, and thanks for watching!
What a well done review on this Lexus ES.

How many miles now?
Im Glad you liked it. Comparing it to the 2 Infinitis i owned prior to the 300h i hated this car so much.

What type of gas is it require?
regular
Good Job, Bro.
get the 450h its a beast
Whats this interior color package??
How do you close the truck automatically
We believe Chris used the key fob, ziad mohyar. Just hold the trunk button and it should close. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
nice video bestie
Thanks for watching, Judge Judith Sheindlin!
How is it a hybrid and only managing 40mpg. What's the point?
The 350 only averages 25-26 mpg, Chizerz. That's the difference between filling up every week and driving 1-1/2 to 2 weeks before having to stop for gas. It adds up, if only a little. Not to mention, this car is 5 years old so Lexus' hybrid tech may have improved some since then. Hope this helps and thanks for watching.
The music is extremely intrusive in this video for someone with a hearing loss.
How reliable is a CVT and batteries? When do you need to change them?
Same as prius
does the radio have blutooth
Yes it does, Tone Anthony. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
Music is too loud... Helllooo ?? Wasn't that obvious?

It`s a Lexus. You don`t get "engine noise." I see you aren`t familiar with a Lexus. I do not like the back ground music. It was annoying.

There is no engine sound. Even in "sport mode" it's just a loud buzz.
Call me crazy I actually like the background music!
As others have said: you need to get rid of the music. I couldn't even watch the review.
