@kwaseb No. That's definitely not true. You may want to do a bit of research when making such a statement. Any car model not redesigned or heavly refreshed within 5yrs is losing market share to the competition. A quick Google search will tell you 5-7yrs but customers expect/demand the former nowadays.

Once you've seen one you've seen them all. Lexus is absolutely ridiculous with how long they allow models to go unchanged with minimal updates. You'd think after canceling the GS, they'd have some sort or equivalent sized sport sedan. Ready within a year or two. it's been 4 years. So glad other Premier luxury automakers are still producing all new luxury sedans for people not into SUVs and CUVs.
@a.k.2894 because it's outdated and boring. If you expect to reach out to younger buyers who expect modern technology, updated styling, and advanced powertrains. They definitely won't be looking at Lexus. This is why Mercedes and BMW continue to dominate luxury car sales, why still being considered less reliable. Nobody cares if a car last 25yrs anymore, when they are only going to have it for 3/4 years max. That's why!
@harrietdavis5313 🤣🤣🤣🤣 that's true, but it's sad they wait so long to update these cars with minimal updates. And wonder why the GS tanked, and now the LS is tanking their outdated.
I am confused the ES 350 from my understanding was to be completely redesign for 2025 ao what's wirh that or is the new ES 350 new design is for 2026 please clarify
@@tonysterbenc won’t surprise me if they decide to discontinue the LS because the ES always outsells the LS, they will probably add some extra features in the ES ultra luxury package like massage seats or power window shades and soft close doors.
The ES 350 is a great car, but it looks just like the 2013 that I owned! In fact, I owned 3 ES models since 2005. Lexus, please, please redesign this car! 🙄
When they brought out the current generation for 2019, they deliberately retained a lot of visual cues from the previous generation that debuted for 2013. The new '19 was on an all-new chassis, and my personal guess (no proof) was that they didn't want to scare their loyal buyers by changing its look so much that it looked like an unrelated car.
Tell lexus we are damn tired of this old thing.They take for ever to change cars and when they do they always behind.Whrn is the new model comming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Lexus
"We are tired of this old thing 😂"? 😮, speak for yourself. Toyota/Lexus has always been conservative/cautious in their decision NOT to mess with ain't broke, so DON'T fix it; yet 😂. This same mentality has been true for their best-selling sedan, the Camry, and good reason because it sells. The "new model" is the 2025; the "new Lexus RESESIGN will come when Toyota/Lexus decides the market is ready for it. TOYOTA/LEXUS STRONG 💪! 👏👍💪
@@keithwilliams5600 conservative or cursed in this instance.Toyota is behind only has 2 or 3 engines.Where is a compact turbo V6 good for 300kw to 400kw for Lexus is and bigger rear wheel 5 series rival.They even canned what could have been an exciting car the LFC.
I hear your frustration i kinda feel the same way, but with lexus they have always done their own thing. And you know what you gonna get thats why I'm still holding on to my 14 es ultra luxury, no big difference from the 25 not for 60gs. But you can get the new cool kid on the block genesis to me thats what lexus should have been doing to compete. In a lot of ways. Gonna pay a lot more though.
One person’s old is another’s preferred choice. I love all the old buttons combined withe the new touchscreen technology. I chose to go with the ‘24 ES Ultra Luxury instead of an RX or other MNFs sedan. I did not want to hear a 4 cylinder turbo all the time. I do not drive a lot so MPGs were not a priority. I also wanted the reliability of the old v6. So for me the old ES 350 works. I usually buy Toyota but non of their current models appealed to me. Love to hear what others would have chosen instead.
I really like the reliability and overall satisfaction of the ES, however, '25 looks quite dated and I'm looking forward to the all new 2026 version.
that's why it will be the last most reliable ES350 v6 ever :D
I have an es200 with the same reliability and it already drove more than 9000km
It's a 7 year run for luxury cars....

Love to see you still doing fantastic videos 🎉🎉🎉
I’ll take these Lexus over any other sedan cause I already know what I’m getting
Idk that TLX type s is one hell of an alternative. Both equally reliable and comfortable but the tlx is sportier.
@@Inferno45 yes it is nice but not for that price. And Acura warranty stinks
The 2025 Toyota Crown Platinum is the same price as this...
@ non of that hybrid stuff man
What a beauty!! I can't wait to own one someday!
Nice looking car. Glad they haven't changed it! Great video!
I just bought the 2021 CPO Luxury. The body looks identical. Just one question, do the exterior mirrors fold in?
Why you asking? Yes all 2020+ MY has electronic folding mirror, set it to auto and you are good to go bro
What's changed from the 2024
Nothing change from 2023 2024 2025 lmao
It's the same model... only the year normally changes. It's like that with just about every car!! Until a whole new body style comes out 🙄
Very little. They added a black trim package option, and that's about all.

That is an very pretty ES loves that a lot Lexus does so wonderful great job Kenny 😀
Nice car but even as a Lexus fan I was disappointed that there wasn’t a redesign for ‘25.
I think the Chevy Impala has a better exterior design. The ES is boring to look at, but it's great to drive.
@@Richard_Fouts come one bro... Chevy Impala!!!!!!!!
You'll get your wish for '26. Rumor has it that they were aiming for '25 but got delayed by a late decision to reconsider the changes.
@@tonysterbenc false rumor... it's a 7 year run for luxury vehicles... old RX was 2015 - 2022. This is 2018 - 2025
I am confused the ES 350 from my understanding was to be completely redesign for 2025 ao what's wirh that or is the new ES 350 new design is for 2026 please clarify
2026, yes. How did you arrive at your understanding? The RX old body style was from 2015 - 2022. This is from 2018 - 2025
It was widely rumored they'd have a new ES for the '25 model year. Now it looks like it'll be the 2026.
2025 es looks identical to 2024
yeah its the same thing. the 2026 model is when the new generation comes out
And 2022🤔
When will the ES and LS get a redesign? And I think they have a new trim level this year called black sport edition
2026
ES, 2026. LS, probably never.

$57K starting price?!
No. Low $40s to start, $57k loaded.
Haha, next design is going to take the RX grille theme. This is just a round-off
Lexus really needs to hire a new designer! Somehow they make new cars that already outdated!
That's because this design hit the market in 2018 as a 2019 model. You'll get your wish next year.
Redesign desperately needed… enough with that mouth grill, even the steering wheel is unchanged. Yes, the technology is nice. But other cars have it.
Yes they need more HP and some new interior design. (esp the new GX.. Bland) in my opinion but I like the wide X grill
Wow so outdated
Nothing new
