REVEALED! 8th Generation Lexus ES Megathread (ES 350h, ES 350e, ES 500e)

[Levi]

Compared to the Camry which is an extended facelift, the ES appears to be all new. At least now it can’t be a "rebadged Camry".

BZ7 will also launch at the same time.


The concept car was shown at Guangzhou Motor Show earlier.

Judging from the side profile, this one is hands down sexier than the new ES

Oh! I take back what I said…


In Europe it might then be named Camry+.

Is this the Toyota equivalent to the ES EV?

Will it be renamed now that Toyota has decided to get rid of the bZ naming scheme (to perhaps the Crown EV)?

I doubt it. It's possible this will be a rebadged GAC Hyptec GT.

bZ is a decently received name in China so it will be kept while globally the name will be different.

That interior is hideous
