Besides its larger size, the very first thing I notice about the new ES is the coupe-like roofline that glides down into the trunk:
More than anything, this line defines the car to me — it’s a bold statement by Lexus to change their best-selling sedan in such a strong manner, especially when the style and size bring to mind the flagship LS.
As for the rest of the exterior design, I’m not sold on the hoodline and the way it cuts across the front-end, but the side profile makes it all worth it:
And then there’s the interior, which is such a quantum leap over the existing model that only a side-by-side comparison will do:
Here’s a closer look at the interior:
As with the new GS, this ES interior could sell the car on its own — there’s simply no way to overstate the improvement compared to the current model and its teardrop center console.
Now, I try not to get too excited or too disappointed by leaked cameraphone photos, but the new ES looks like a homerun to me. What do you think?
