WHY Lexus ES Smashes it. Top 7. Review.

This is the Lexus ES – a luxury saloon with self-charging hybrid tech, a premium interior, tons of interior room and one of the most refined rides on the market. Lexus has been at the forefront of creating impressive hybrid drivetrains, with the ES available with the 2.5-litre 300h unit that maximises efficiency and economy – this ES has official economy stats of between 51 and 54mpg after all.

But that’s far from the Lexus’ biggest plus points. Howard Ritchie borrowed our 300h F-Sport for a week, to bring you a complete consumer review.
