Overview

The 2015 Lexus ES 350 sedan makes for an excellent contender in the midsize sedan. With 2 trims on offer, the Lexus ES 350 has a base MSRP of $37,700, with prices going all the way up to an MSRP of $40,440, competing directly with the Cadillac CTS and the Infiniti Q70. Only a 3.5L V6 engine is offered, mated to a 6-speed Automatic transmission.

Together, they produce 268 horsepower and 248 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 6.5 seconds, the ES 350 maintains a combined fuel economy of 24 MPG. Lexus offers the ES 350 in 9 stunning colors, with the Atomic Silver being a particular favorite of ours.

The 2015 Lexus ES 350 is a luxury sedan that manages to undercut its German counterparts and yet manages to feel extremely premium. The cabin is loaded with creature comforts and the seats are more comfortable than most of its rivals. The guys over at "Kelly Blue Book" tested out the 2015 ES 350 and even they feel it's hard to beat in terms of comfort and luxury quotient. 

Buying Advice

The standard 2015 ES 350 is more and enough if you're looking for a good value sedan with value for money standard equipment. But if you're looking for advanced convenience and safety features, we recommend the $2,695 Navigation package and the $1,370 Luxury package.

              Lexus ES350

              Pros - ["I feel safe in the car.", "It is sturdy and strong"]

              Cons - ["servicing is expensive.", "Parts and repair is expensive."]

              My Lexus ES 350 is a very reliable luxury sedan. I have been in a couple of accidents but not a scratch incurred. It keeps me that safe. It is very sturdy and strong. After so many year of using it, I have grown emotionally attached to this car.
