As I get older, I tend to value fuel economy and technology over power and handling
im older but i bought a used 3,5ltrV6+Hybrid in my RX.....best decision since years.
Charlie_Willie okay boomer
I’m
Sorry
@@whitemailprivilege2830 ok loser
Sucks. You can ride a bike to save even more money.
These cars are simply outstanding. My last 3 cars have all been the ES. The first two were not hybrid. I put 200,000 miles on each of them before selling to a friend and a relative. The one I drive now is the hybrid. It is now 5 years old, and has 84,000 miles on it. Since buying the car I have averaged 34.6 MPG. Have never done anything to any of my 3 ESs, except routine maintenance, tires, and 1 brake job on each of the first 2. Am still on the original brakes on my hybrid model. These cars are very comfortable....Moreover, these cars are RELIABLE.
Michael Romines which one you prefer? Hybrid? Or non-hybrid?
Michael Romines I’m on my first ES, a 2013 ES350. Bought last April at 30,009 miles. It was a trade in to a local Volvo dealership as part of a 2 car trade in deal. (Why anyone would trade in a Lexus IS beyond me). I don’t drive more than 6-8 k miles/yr and sure enough I just turned 36k miles.
This is car is flawless, solid like a tank and quiet like a vault. I have done nothing to it yet except rotate the tires and replace 1 tire Pressure sensor.
My only complaint is the rear seats don’t fold down. I have 4 1/2 years left on my used car loan, this baby will last me 10+ years! In ECO mode and highway cruising I can easily hit 40 mpg (my dash graph shows it).
Last 3 cars, 200000 miles on each of them......hmm.... you are either very old or just drives a lot LOL
Bullshit those batteries die at 120k miles
Alex does such a great job of reviewing vehicles - the best in my opinion. Its just too bad he doesn't consider reliability of the brand or model because there is NO way you can compare a Kia Cadenza to a Lexus ES. After all, when all is said and done the vehicle's primary purpose is transportation and if it isn't reliable that defeats the whole purpose.
45 mpg in a car this large is remarkable.
M1911jln LaCrosse eAssist sees 39 mpg at 75 mph. Hybrids do not excel at highway speeds.
Norm T The Newer Camry does good on the Highway.
@@normt5463 Depends. I got 47 MPG on my 2016 camry hybrid going from NYC to Long island driving on the parkway last night (has epa rating of 40 highway). And I was going 75-80mph on the parkway. If i had the new 2018 camry (supposedly gets EPA 50mpg highway), Id expect to be getting 60MPG going so fast.
Hybrid fan here, stretched for this car a yer ago, after 9000 miles great decision! Top off my tank for accurate mileage, low to mid 30's around town, high 30's to low 40's EZ freeway driving (60-65 MPH). I like not having to go to the pump as often, even with Lexus sneaking in a smaller gas tank (13 vs 16 gallons) for hybrid vs gas only, get another 100 miles/tank range, high 400 vs high 300.
21:22 I think the Lexus swallowed that golf cart
LOL!
Run for your lifes, it's Christine's child!
That's what the big grill's for
That's what you get for crossing Alex's shot.
Too funny. Ping!...burp.
Wow this thing is beautiful, I always loved Big sedans, owned a 2011 Chrysler 300, 2014 Cadillac XTS, 2017 Toyota Avalon, man this thing is next on my list especially with that gas mileage!
Lexus. Most buyers come back because they know what real luxury is. This car is fantastic! Plus the F-Sport is 🔥🔥🔥
Real luxury comes from Germany.
Where is shades for windows. Where are double-layers windows? Even rear seats do not fold. haha
PLATINUM No heated rear seat is not luxury for my passengers on a cold day on leather.
Norm T idk why you're complaining for. All hybrids have different packages for different climates. You think if I live in Arizona I'm gonna care about heated seats?? Hell noooooo.
Norm T remember hybrid vehicles are about weight savings.
Alex on Autos... just the right channel when you want top solid information.
hands down best reviews done by Alex on Autos!!! i watch it like i use to watch top gear very detail and information is perfect
A truly stunning car and a fantastic view thank you very much. Please do more Lexus reviews!
Best car reviews on RUclips always from this Sir.
You sir have the most detailed and informative car reviews. Keep up the good work and thank you for another awesome video. 👍
I have the 2016 ES300H. Love the car. Looked at trading up to the same model 2019. Saw the weird dash with those funky knobs sticking out of the dash. My first impression was that they built the car and forgot to integrate the buttons so they attached them as an afterthought. Walked out of the dealership with my 2016.
I'm on the fence between these models partially for that reason
What a lame reason to pull out. Reminds if a guy who wanted an IS but the no sunglass holder was a "deal breaker". And to think you both have the same vote as I do.
Test drove this tonight. Current CMax Hybrid owner averaging 46mpg mixed driving Uber/Lyft. Seriously was impressed although I don't consider myself a large sedan guy. The Lexus rode very nice and was surprisingly peppy in sport mode. I was impressed .Great review.
Great Job Alex, thank you for talking about the advantages of Nimh batteries, most other reviewers don't know anything about things like that.
You should also mention the advantages of port injection / combined injection (both port and direct combined) vs direct injection, that's another huge advantage of the Lexus. Direct injection engines (all competitors use them) suffer from internal carbon build up due to their design and when they get older that causes extremely expensive problems. Their injectors are fragile and expensive too. Plus their emissions are much more harmful to humans.
Walnut blast solves the problem. I have 2.0 ecoboost and no problems so far (~100k mileage)
@@Uluhbek97 So far. Nuff said. It's comin' just wait.
GREAT Review. Lovely car.
Thank you so much for your efforts..
Alex your videos are fantastic. Super helpful. Kudos.
Fantastic fuel economy for such a large, comfortable automobile, even better than my 2014 Toyota Avalon Hybrid Limited, which averages 43 mpg in mixed driving. As always, awesome review Alex, nobody else provides the same level of detail and accuracy.
Very nice and informative review on that +Lexus ES. I was hesitant on whether to buy a +LexusIS300h or considering this ES300h. Now +AlexOnAuto made me see clear and I am definitely set my sights on that Lexus ES300h.
Great information as always!
Always nice REVIEW ! THanks SIR
That guy in the golf cart got abducted right as they drove by, and you didnt even mention it. :0 21:22
Dude. Seriously. You are amazing.
Great review and so much more well done than the other journalists.
Excellent Excellent review Alex, thank you.
Excellent, very detailed review.
We have one, even at $80k it is the most luxerious car to buy at this pricepoint. No bmw/audi/mercedes at this level has these kind of backseat controls. Add the reliability and laid back image of Lexus and you have one perfect daily car.
As exorbitant as the price might seem to US residentens, the car prices in Europe are insanely high. For example, a RC-F is $171k here. The LS 600 $223k
Another well done review. Safety features are standard.
Excellent review!
Great video Alex thank you!! Fast becoming a Lexus fan over here but still considering the MKZ for lower entry level price 👍
Extremely detailed review i love it
Wow great review! And the car is very nice
Always great reviews! Thanks Alex.
Good explainations every way.
now this is a good review as he is fair and honest
This grill is by far my favorite of the Lexus' grill so far! I really like it...
Great review! I have a 2013 300h and I find it has everything I need, including power when you need it, you don't compromise on anything when buying this Gen 6/ Gen7 ES. If you want a hybrid or just great gas mileage and don't want to compromise, this is it, which includes the LEXUS reliability and drive. Yes, its a relaxed drive, but yes its a fantastic drive.
Thats a nice car. Im getting it next year.
good stuff, thank you
nice review
he is a good man as he has been honest and not bias
Thank you for good review! Does this car have a timing *chain* or a timing belt?
The fact that Lexus makes their Safety 2.0 standard is really valuable to me; it tells me they have confidence that it will work and that the safety system is not an afterthought.
KOLT
They do it as a marketing strategy.
Safety is a top concern for most new car buyers at all price ranges, and buyers like not having to buy top trim levels in order to get all available safety components.
There’s no reason to think that safety systems from manufacturers that choose to make them optional would work any less well because they don’t offer them on all trims.
For example, the 3rd gen EyeSight system from Subaru is the same last year as it is this year, even though that for this year, Subaru makes it standard on all trims.
KOLT we get it, you cant drive. Sad
This is the only hybrid car I will buy it Alex.
Absolutely excellent cars no European for me, thanks for this great review.
Hybrid all the way!
Thank you for the great content. I have a
2019 ES 300h (my first Lexus Hybrid - coming from a Honda Hybrid). There is a loud noise coming from the brake booster pump every time I open the drivers seat or occasionally while driving and pressing the brakes. I have wrapped it with sound deadening (heat proof) material since sometimes it is extremely loud. Maybe that's the way it's supposed to function?
Funny how I didn't notice that during the test drive and what might be loud for me might not be noticeable to others. Perhaps it's because the car is so quiet that you hear everything (kinda ironic). Thank you!
The LC uses a Lithium-ion bttery. 20kg lighter 20% smaller. Did the voice commands work for you? Track pad is handy if no voice command available.
When you factor in the bulletproof engine/transmission of a Lexus/Toyota it can't be beat.
Bullshit. These hybrids often have battery and electrical problems. Say goodbye to your wallet.
@@nellatl you mean after 10+ years and 200 000 miles lol
Not the hybrid. The battery dies at about 120k miles then 6k to repair.
@@josiahr1375 even at 200k that's too early for a $6k repair. Btw, they die at 120k.
@@nellatl good thing we never drive it due to covid
I absolutely love the design of the Lexus ES, I'd pick it any day over the LS. The only thing the LS has over the ES is power.
Not true. The LS has much more costly and luxurious interior materials. In person, it's quite obvious.
In Sweden we have 10 years warranty on the car. It's the only car you can drive in the north. It is extremely cheap to own and run. That you get a luxury car too, they do absolutely nothing! I love it!
Nice review, I love to watch your reviews, very detailed. Is there any difference between 2018 Camry hybrid and this 2019 ES 300h apart from Luxury?
go back and watch his review again. He specifically mentions things like stronger construction and insulation.
Awesome but I like ES Gen 6th 's COOL and Heating seat controls
V.nice car and very luxury vehicle
Sexy car! I have a video on the UK version of this coming out this weekend :)
Holy smokes 44mpg is great but what's that paint color called? It is a stunning color. This is a great job on the ES. The huge grille, which I really don't like, looks good on this ES.
when will you do the official scores for the ES300h?
Thanks for a great review Alex. Does anyone know if this model offers Lane centering similar to Honda sensing and Nissan pro-pilot??
Yes. Its new and called Lane Tracing Assist. Impossible to find much reviews on it but it seems to work something similar to propilot.
Alex is there a place to hold two drinks in front area? Do you know what the price for hybrid will be and when they will become available?
I just bought one of these used and it is truly remarkable vehicle. I plan to take care of it well, but the build quality is outstanding and I know it will stand the test of time. Also, if you're considering a new Camry Hybrid or Prius, you might consider a used ES300h. They are WAY more comfortable and the quality is truly next level compared to Toyota.
imo this and the Avalon are the true inheritors of the oldschool luxury crown. big, soft and comfortable, but now with 40+ mpg instead of the 4 you got from the 70s boats.
Damn you talked more in this video than I have in the last decade 😂 Excellent review. I think this colour might be Glacial Ecru, it looks like it anyway.
great looking car
I actually drove Lexus ES Hybrid from Bellevue to Gig Harbor round trip in Washington State. And got average of not 44 MPG, but 49.3 MPG. This trip included heavy traffic jam of Tacoma area both ways.
Did you calculate the MPG yourself or just look at what the car calculated. The MPG the car shows is just an estimate. The actual MPG is less. If it said 49.3 it's probably more like 47-47.5mpg which is still great
I hope I get that when mine is delivered in February.
Awesome car
Price = $42,335. Announced July 27, 2108. The 2019 ES 300h hybrid costs $510 less than the outgoing car.
I like this grill better than the 2019 Avalon Hybrid. No one can top your through reviews. I’m neutral on the interior knobs. I wonder if this is worth the extra money vs the 2019 Avalon Hybrid?
12:55 that's what she said... Keep up the great reviews, Alex. Can't wait to make my own review when we get these on the lot late this summer. I noticed it has the same door handles as the LC and the LS...ballin'
Alex, I think overall, you give the best reviews there are. Thanks.
Does it have Android auto and I wish they have Garmin navigation intergated and wireless charging and auto windows roll up when close the car with alarm system.
I'm probably hypercritical when it comes to reviews. Alex is slowly becoming my favorite reviewer. Factual, even keeled, and devoid of none sense! Well done sir!
Is that the right rear door having a faulty shut line or just the camera playing tricks??
You have good space in the compartment beneath your hand rest because it's a front wheel drive 🥊😏⛷
The analog clock in the car appears to be out of place with the interior design. The clock is in other locations and just appears to be extraneous. I think I'd remove it and integrate that space into the screen design. Thoughts?
Good pitch!!!
I have Lexus ES 350 and I love that car! Mine is a 2010, and I am the second owner. I will buy the 2019 in 2021 or 2022, when the initial price hit is mostly done on it. Did the same with my current car and meant to trade it by 2015 - but nothing ever goes wrong with it! Nothing! It is just making itself really hard to trade in....
Marc Zarkenon Smart way of buying.
Marc Zarkenon clearly you are the old demographic they are trying to shed. Shame
Any maintenance issue ? Engine ?
@@HLC64 no. Nothing. Not even a headlight.
Lol. Same with my then 2006 Toyota Sienna. 330k and was really hard to sell it. Like you I didn't replace a single light bulb. Lol. Aside from the usual maintenance 160k water pump only because I insisted, spark plugs, etc it was bullet proof.
Best car I have ever owned.
Looks great but I would always see the FrankKnobs on this auto, from A Lexus owner. I miss the heated steering wheel the most on my RX350...About the only thing I miss from my last BMW 3X, don’t miss the expensive repairs. I have replaced the hood lifts and break pads hay it’s a 2012. Only Lexus from now on.
How do you compare the A/C with the HYBRID and the ES 350 ??? Please reply. Thanks!!!!!
could you add scale to your sedan length comparison chart? the 2019 ES on your chart looks twice the length of my audi A4.
It is, in fact, much much longer. Roomier too, especially behind the front seats.
I wonder if the stiff ride has to do with the lateral performance dampers and skinny 45 tire sidewalls? I wonder if the Avalon on 17" wheels and softer tuned suspension rides better?
The tires, maybe. The lateral performance dampers, no. They're not suspension stiffeners, they're actually shock absorbers bolted to the front and back of the frame. They only make the car quieter and smoother.
Overall styling for 2019 is better than before.
My father is businessman. He like good fuel economy van. I like fast car, suv or van because it is thrilling to drive. Now i like more good fuel economy vehicle when gas prices are higher and higher.
With the battery under the rear seat, I don't understand why Lexus doesn't design the seat backs to fold down. My best friend owns an ES and he's always needing to borrow my truck to pick up stuff at Lowe's!
First elephants for Nissan's steering wheel. Now Frankenstein. I'll never unsee these things thanks to your reviews.
Another stellar review, Alex! After owning a Lexus ES-300 for 20 years of comfortable, trouble-free driving, I ordered its cousin: a 2019 Toyota Avalon Limited Hybrid. In my opinion, compared to the 2019 ES 300, the 2019 Avalon has a more luxurious interior (the available Cognac leather trim is absolutely stunning,) a more logical and easier to navigate infotainment system, and fold-down rear seats, to name a few differences. And the Avalon’s hybrid versions are only $1,000 more than their non-hybrid counterparts. However, most would argue (as does Alex) that the Avalon's grill is rather polarizing than the Lexus's. But beyond that, I believe the Avalon is a solid alternative to the ES 399 for those seeking a luxury sedan without a luxury logo.
Jerry M, Thanks for the report. I also view the new hybrids as very logical successors to the older generation of V6 Avalon, Camry and ES. Today's hybrids have comparable performance and nearly double the mpg. Please get back to us in 20 years to let us know how your new Avalon worked out. Happy trails ;)
Great choice! I'm sure it will give you many years of dependable service.
Very interesting indeed. Unfortunately we don't get the Avalon at all over here in Australia! :(
Good choice on the Avalon.
You should check the Crown which is the Avalon version in Japan they got the improved grill. I drive an Avalon Hybrid that I bought used awesome car I get 40 mpg and it is quiet I wish it had the new info system but the car is great. Hopefully it will never die I do get a lot of bumpy roads out here in Dallas tho.
This guy went deeeeep.
you are special
Great video Alex, thank you. Indeed, This Lexus ES is a great option for luxury, fuel economy, and low maintenance cost compared to german luxury cars, for example. However, both german and japanese cars have their own fans and the reason is simple. Each car is focused on specific areas like driving performance, fuel economy, overall comfort, technology and son on. Which one is the best for you? There is no simple answer, it depends on what you most expect from a car. Regards from Mexico ( the sadly frustated land for Lexus).
Buy one from the US and drive there! Problem solved.
Great review… quick question..does the es 300h have an awd option? Or is it just a fwd car? Thanks
Only es 250 is awd
Nice! 44mpg
I am currently leasing The Es 300h 2018, but I recently got it in just a month and a half ago. I should've waited :/ dang it.
u r an iddiot
How do you get the display of the mpg efficiency on the dashboard?
I know wagons are out of style nowadays but I would love to see an ES Wagon.
The monitor controlled AC on/off is not convenient at all.
I just purchased an es350 I wear a ponytail, it hits the headrest and if headrest is risen it hits the roof when the seat moves back and forward. Very annoying.also I was told that it was going to be compatible with android soon but you said it might not be able to upgrade. Not happy since I have android.I had an Es 350 2008 I believe I liked it a lot better.
You've raised your standards. The 2008 didn't work with Android at all.
I have a supercharged mustang GT as my daily but I’m looking for a good comfortable daily and I think I’m going to go with a Lexus. What are the best Lexus cars between $30,000 -$50,000????
2019 Lexus ES 350 Ultra Luxury/ & or es 300h ultra luxury or if you can find a 2018-2019 Lexus LS
Hi Alex is there a spare tire?
Wish the rear seat can fold down! Alas
Alex ...best review ,you prepare from Lexus ..keep it up
