Videos: Inside the 2019 Lexus ES & ES F SPORT


The 2019 Lexus ES is ready for its turn in the spotlight, with the world’s automotive media currently driving the new model around Nashville ahead of its late-summer release at dealerships.

Here are four videos showing off the new sedan’s interior — three featuring Topaz leather and various trim options, and one inside the Black ES F SPORT:

They have some in the global version no?

It really bugs me how little interior detail they are showing, but somehow they feel compelled to put an image of the brake disk on there (and it's just a generic brake disk!). What are the PR people smoking?
The Lexus Japan website does a way better PR job, showing off a properly luxurious interior with a good legroom shot.

Wish they'd used real-world photos for the exterior, though they still look good. Curiously it also has a rear spoiler. Thought the spoiler is just an F-Sport thing. Hopefully it's optional.

Not an ideal photo opportunity during the reveal, wasn’t able to capture much.

Plus side, I did spend quite a bit of time with the standard and F SPORT, and we have a lot to be excited about. More soon!

The F sport version doesn’t do ES the justice. Too sporty. Thank God, Lexus do still have the luxury version for ES. Any full shot of the rear?

Wait...what is ES260? Now they are doing the "power equivalency" trick with naturally aspirated engines?
The ES260 is only marketed in China. It has the same engine as the ES250 marketed elsewhere. 250 in China is an Internet slang for "half crazy"/silly, so they avoided using that number only in China.

Aha, forgot to mention that. The "250"s had been selling here for a decade. It's so obvious that it's funny how their marketing department missed this so long.

What an absolute disappointment. I really hope they don't kill off the GS as this car will not be able to fill the shoes of both vehicles. Australians don't even get the F-sport. We just get the hybrid in either luxury or sports luxury trim levels. The V6 is only a smidge more powerful than the camry and Avalon and less powerful than the GS. which makes sense. This is FWD only.

Please don't kill of the GS...oh please oh please...

Ok but it was not a problem for the current generation ES that has been bearing 250 badge in China for years. I think the reason is different.
