The ES is the luxury sedan for those who prioritize serene comfort over exhilarating speed.
Quiet and serene ride · Luxurious interior appointments
EV range maxes out at 300 miles · Entry-level models feel a bit too Toyota
The 2026 Lexus ES is all about tranquility and opulence. With its whisper-quiet operation and a cabin that feels like a refuge from the chaos of the world, it's a masterclass in comfort-first design. While the EV range maxes out at a modest 300 miles, the smooth single-speed transmission and plush interior more than compensate. Anyone looking for a stress-free commute will find solace here. However, those craving a more thrilling drive might want to look elsewhere.
Our pick: ES 350e FWD (Electric) ($52,000)
vs. 2026 BMW 3 Series: While the BMW 3 Series offers a more engaging driving experience, the Lexus ES excels in providing a quiet, comfortable ride.
