Luxury, comfort and hybrid technology make up the complete package, 2015 Lexus ... - Daily Herald
The Lexus ES 300h is a brother to the best selling sedan in the line, or the ES 350, both of which are an excellent choice for a first adventure into an entry level model in the luxury sedan market. Before the redesign of the ES series two years ago, it had been based on the Toyota Camry, now it comes with the more upscale Avalon underpinnings as the base for the ES line. Fortunately just over a year ago we were able to enjoy driving the Avalon Hybrid for a week, and along with the ES 300 were able to garner just under 40 mpg both weeks. The Lexus ES is considered by most to be a mid-sized sedan, but after a week of driving we would put it more closely related to a full size sedan as the ES was more than large enough for us and two adults in the rear for our Saturday night out... To us the ES 300h just seemed more like a full sized sedan, and both of us were of the opinion that if it looks and acts the part it would most likely fall into that category. The ES model has become so popular that a couple of years ago Lexus predicted that 1 in 4 of the vehicles sold here in the U. S. would be a hybrid. Source: www.heraldextra.com
