Lexus ES sales in China, presumably a little understanding of the car of the small partners are aware, this new car not only has no discounts, the price increase has become the norm. Throughout 2021, the total sales volume of Lexus ES in China is about 106,000 vehicles, which is actually quite good. It should be known that the Lexus ES is an imported model, and the problem of insufficient production capacity has been plaguing Lexus manufacturers. Is lexus ES model worth buying by our consumers? Today we went to the store for an experience.
Lexus ES's manufacturer guidance price of 294,900 yuan to 488,900 yuan, although this is the guidance price, but the dealer is not according to this guidance price to sell, from the terminal market to understand, this model needs to increase the price of about 10,000 yuan to pick up the car. Today we experience the Lexus ES 300h, which is also a powerful model.
From the perspective of design, this silver Lexus ES is the most purchased by consumers, and the overall visual impact is indeed very strong. How do you think this design compares to the BMW 5 Series? The spun cone's intake mesh is filled with a silver grille that looks luxurious, flanked by eagle-eye headlights and a sporty surround with chrome trim trim.
The side of the new car looks quite elegant, which is one of the reasons why the Lexus ES sells better. The slender body line looks like a gentleman, and the wheel shape is not a cookie-cutter monochrome aluminum alloy shape, but a double-colored suspension design, which is quite dynamic. In the body data section, this Lexus ES 300h is positioned as a medium-sized sedan with a length, width and height of 4975/1866/1447mm and a wheelbase of 2870mm. The competitors of this model are the BMW 5 Series, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. Despite the price increase, its price is much cheaper than the above two models, so this is also where many consumers are more entangled.
The rear of the model matches a more obvious movement surround, of course, its taillights are also full of layering, and the new car adopts a hidden exhaust pipe design. Do you like such a beautiful model?
Looking at the interior design, the overall interior design is not particularly luxurious, but the materials are still relatively thick. In the process of use, I found that the response of the vehicle-machine interaction system is not particularly sensitive, and it seems that Toyota and Lexus are not very good at in-vehicle interaction systems. In the central control part, this model is equipped with an 8-inch floating LCD screen, which needs to be installed later for navigation, supporting CarLife and mobile phone interconnection. As for the Internet of Vehicles, OTA remote upgrades are not available on this model.
The new car is matched with a seven-inch color driving computer screen, the size is smaller, and the steering wheel is fully equipped with a leather steering wheel with paddle shifters, which must be praised.
The seat is made of leather design, perforated brown design, I personally still prefer, equipped with mechanical gear, the feel is still there.
The rear seat space is very spacious, and the degree of platform uplift is not as obvious as the BMW 5 Series, the seat matches the style of the double color, it looks visually good, and the ride is relatively soft, the backrest is not as straight as the BMW 5 Series, and the comfort of the ride is ideal, but unfortunately this car matches the small sunroof.
Finally, looking at the power system, our model belongs to the hybrid model, equipped with a 2.5L naturally aspirated engine, the maximum power is 178 horsepower, the peak torque is 221N·m, the total power of the electric motor is 88kW, the total torque is 205N·m, and the whole series uses single motor assist.
