2018 Lexus ES Performance

The Lexus ES comes with one of two engines, depending on whether it is the Hybrid model or not.

In non-Hybrid models, the ES is powered by a 3.5-liter V6 engine, which makes a nice, happy 268 hp and 248 lb-ft of torque.

In the Hybrids, the V6 is replaced by a far more efficient 2.5-liter inline-four-cylinder engine paired with an electric drive motor, for 200 total system horsepower and 156 lb-ft of torque.

The interior of the 2018 ES is spacious due to its extended wheelbase, which especially gives the back seat plenty of extra legroom. In addition, it is trimmed in luxury features like NuLuxe seating upholstery (upgradable to perforated leather), with even more provided in the optional Luxury and Ultra Luxury Packages.
