220,000, Lexus ES has reached the "time of generation"!
Recently, the inflection point of a new car under Lexus has finally come, and the current price has indeed dropped to the freezing point.
When it comes to Lexus's most running volume and the most controversial model, it must be the Lexus ES, which is obviously a C-class model, but the wheelbase is actually similar to the Camry. In addition, Lexus ES is even more publicly declared to be a "road lightning", which was questioned by many netizens, the 2.0L power system is assembled in a medium and large sedan, and the power is obviously weak, and many friends call Lexus ES a "road tank".
In the second half of this year, the all-new Lexus ES ushered in an official facelift, and the current model has also begun to have a large discount. For example, the Lexus ES excellent version (that is, the entry version), the manufacturer's guide price is 296,900 yuan, and the naked car price is directly reduced to 220,000 yuan, and the terminal discount is close to 77,000 yuan. Interestingly, the new car even had to be priced up the year before.
The power system, the Lexus ES low-end model uses a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, matched with a CVT continuously variable transmission, the power system is indeed weaker, but fortunately, the tuning of the CVT is relatively good, and there is not much sense of breaking through and frustration when driving, and it is very light.
The chassis design is a MacPherson independent suspension at the front and a multi-link independent suspension at the rear. In fact, this kind of chassis structure design really does not meet the standards of medium and large luxury cars.
The exterior styling adopts our common design, in Lexus's own words, to look elegant and calm. One thing to say, the overall shape does give us a visual feeling of a gentleman. The low body posture, close to 5 meters in length, is indeed very elegant, the length, width and height of the Lexus ES are 4975/1866/1447mm, and the wheelbase is 2870mm.
The interior design will receive a major facelift in the second half of this year, which will change to a continuous dual-screen design, but the current model is still a more old-fashioned design. The central control part is matched with a 12.3-inch touch suspension screen, a barrel trip computer, a mechanical gear handle, and a large number of physical buttons throughout the car, which looks more traditional.
If you buy an entry-level model, it is actually equipped with an intelligent driver assistance system at the L2 level, with a full-speed adaptive cruise system that makes us more relaxed.
As for the entry-level variant, in addition to the ionizer, it is also equipped with an on-board air purifier, a compact electric sunroof, a keyless entry system, keyless start, and even a remote start function.
One thing to say, this Lexus ES is not flawless, for example, most of the configurations do not have an inductive power trunk, and most of the configurations only have heated seats.
Write at the end:
Lexus ES actually ushered in a facelift at the end of last year and in February this year, but consumers generally don't know much about it, the main reason is that these two facelifts and upgrades are a little painless, and the exterior and interior have basically not changed, but some adjustments have been made in individual configurations. The reason why there is a large preferential margin is also related to the disadvantage of the facelift. Now that you can buy a brand new Camry at this price, what would you choose if it were you?
