- This is the Lexus ES! This hybrid Japanese saloon is designed to take on top-of-the-range competitors such as the Audi A6 and Mercedes E-Class. The exterior design certainly stands out compared to the more ‘conservative’ and well-known German models, but can it do enough to disrupt the high-end saloon market? Stick with Mat in his latest in-depth review to find out!

Sorry we missed it off guys, but so you know the average MPG we achieved in the ES was 46mpg!
it's okay
Your review is so good that I forgot about the average and remembered it here after looking at the comments. 👍
Lexus always seems to have a problems with headroom in their car, i drove around in a mk3 Gs300 for 3 days, and got a neck pain for a week.
Seemed like a better choice than BMW 5 series, until i heard its Fwd.
46mpg (about 5.1l/100km) for a car this size, in real road conditions i assume, it's surprisingly good. But too bad they ditched the GS and it's RWD from Europe. Let's hope for a awd version, at least, but i doubt.
I don't even have money for a car but I'll watch the review like I'm looking for one
Hahahah me too...
I’m even not old enough...
Yeah, I do that all the time
Im 14 lmao but cant wait to be able
me too dude, Im just a car aficionado...😁
This is the second of our new review style. Following feedback from the last one we've reduced the length by a few mins and cut down on the ammount of camera transitions such as zooms and spins etc so it feels more 'normal'. Let me know what you think.
MatWatsonCars Great video as always. I’d buy that car just for the special coffee cup holder feature. Very thoughtful and very Japanese.
I was personally ok with the rhythm of the old videos. A few very well put together bite-sized segments like 5 good/bad things about the car and very good pacing. This feels more like your run-of-the-mill review you can find on lesser channels. My 2p.
I actually want the edits and zooms. It's really funny
TH-cam removed the play speed?
go back to the old format
Just got one of these for my wife an ES350, she loves it. We are coming from BMW's I just got tired of the lack of reliability with those cars
Same. I find it hard to believe that people think going to the mechanic is luxurious. I actually value my time.
Craig Krueger Mind sharing why BMW isn’t as reliable as Lexus ?
@@shawnmichael9331 well I've owned 2. My first a 335i the injectors went bad, twice, fuel pump and vanos issues. Also by 70,000kms the engine started sounding horrible. Idled louder and rougher than my Jetta TDI with 300,000 kms on it. Luckily I was able to get rid of it at 100,000 kms for a decent amount. I took great care of it changing the oil every 10k twice as often as BMW recommends. I thought I was unlucky and got a dude so we bought an X3 with the N2 engine. Wasn't too bad for the majority of its life. It died twice on the freeway because of ignition issues, lucky under warranty, but the kicker was at 100,000kms the timing chain went and the engine blew. BMW blamed me because I changed the oil myself (even though I again did it every 10k and used to quality oil (ams oil)). So we now have an expensive paperweight sitting in our driveway that I don't know what to do with. Side note, when we had our x3 at the dealer getting diagnosed, I started a conversation with a technician who was on smoke break, he said our car was one of 5 in their shop at the time with a broken timing chain. Also a friend of mine bought a 430i and new and sold it after 6 months after it had been in the shop a total of 5 weeks with various issues. So ya pretty much any brand is more reliable then BMW
There’s nothing more luxurious than sitting on a tow truck. Luxury cars should not have to perform manual labor like the peasant cars.
That's why I lease.
Why don't you comment on reliability and the cost of owning? A Lexus, being produced by Toyota, is waaaay cheaper to own and maintain over the lifetime of the car and has a much higher quality of components (everything not merely aesthetic) than it's German rivals. The Lexus can go for thousands of miles after the similar German cars have become endless money pits. I love your videos, and it would be very enlightening if you could comment on reliability, expected cost of maintenance, etc. for those of us who like to keep our cars for a long time and would like to see programmed obsolescence disappear from the car industry. Just compare the quality of the old mercs with the modern ones... I think it's worth mentioning that some brands make their cars to last much longer than others. It is very valuable and interesting information for buyers. Thanks for your great job!
Totally agree with you. Not many car reviews talk about the reliability of a car. Only a true car person would know - owner of a 2013 FJ Cruiser comparing with a mate's newer X6 or LR3.
Not really, where I live. Lexus parts will cost u double of German rival and over time Lexus dashboard and leather will crack. Something, I have never seen in any German cars. I am starting to doubt you even own a Lexus.
It's a new car though
dulsaf2630 not really the case in the US. Parts for Lexus vehicles are only slightly more expensive than Toyota’s, while the Germans are far more expensive.
@@dulsaf2630 So you say "over time"... You know what happens to the German rivals over time? Nothing. They don't last for more than 3 years! By the time their Leather could naturally crack, the car is gone. Stop arguing about Lexus not beating your little preferred ones in reliability, because you got no arguments. There are no arguments.
But Germans can't beat this in terms of reliability.
Do you really think the mass market would buy German cars if they were “really” unreliable? No.
In the Europe there are more prepared mechanics to maintain and repair German cars.
@aj lana I feel like people who say German cars are unreliable, just say that because they can't afford one. Also, you can't take into account these owners surveys as they constantly contradict themselves. They are based on customer experience, not actual factual data, so a reliability problem maybe their bluetooth not working. Studies in UK and Germany have shown BMW's and VW the most reliable for fleet car buyers for example.
@aj lana "VERY UNRELIABLE"...I owned VW, Audi and now BMW. All fine mate. If it was "VERY UNRELIABLE" no one would buy it.
@@moveaxebx naah..it's all 100% unreliable from germany.people buy it for the branding and showing off.nothing more
I just love the fact that Lexus puts so much effort into their cars. The ES looks nothing like it’s rivals which makes it unique. Even with their sports cars they stick to big NA engines not small turbocharged engine. Much respect
A 4L V8 with biturbos is not what i call a small engine. Lexus is just lame and doesn't even try.
@@charles-davidberube1174 Lexus is just lame. If you're gonna trash a car at least come up with better insults. Eg: Goddamn Japanese cars with all their practicality i just wanna have some fun and sound and waste petrol Murrica
@@lool12366 I'm Canadian, we're one of the leading country in reusable energy.
And i was in no need to come up with a better insult. It's just a bad car considering the e class and 5 series are much better in every way except reliability but then again, people lease those cars, they don't car, they want luxury and the es does not offer.
@@charles-davidberube1174 it's not that Lexus doesn't try. They go through intensive reliability testing on every engine components before they're released to the public.
The last thing you want is something unreliable coming from Toyota and people shout and rant about it in the media. What Toyota has done is great, and I do love they're the most reliable when it comes to car buying. If I want something faster or more fun to drive, I can go get myself a BMW, but for people who commute to work everyday on a busy road, Toyota is superb.
@@NBASFAN That's true. Toyota does put effort into making their cars, and I think both the Japanese and European luxury cars have different things you can appreciate. Also long story short, just buy what you like! Some prefer a Lexus, others like BMWs and Mercs, no harm done to anyone for wanting something different! ^^
I love the new ES. It's really kind of its own thing rather than a straight E-Class/5series competitor (that's the GS)..and in my country (Australia) it's a price class below too. Best thing is that 4 or 5 years, someone can buy one of these knowing it will cost a lot less to keep on the road than a European equivalent.
Buy a German car and you'll get to know their dealer mechanics on a first name basis!
Yep. See how many Merc or BMW specialized, independent garages are in every city...
As a BMW 5 series driver, I find this so true. I’ve had it for less than half a year and it’s gotten 3 visits already! Granted one was a paint job from hitting another car.
I don't know if you meant this as a joke, but in my personal experience this is actually true. Everyone in the dealership, especially the service and parts departments... will know you on a first name basis. You'll even be friends with them on facebook and whatsapp.
Even when you pull in into their parking lot they'll know its you. This would have been good if they knew me because of my very impressionable personality. But the actual reason was because I was a regular when it comes to repairs, break downs, and servicing.
The guy in the parts department had come to know me so well that he always tried to give me the maximum allowable discounts on parts I needed.
I only buy Japanese these days. 400k on my current car and haven't done a single repair, just take it for normal service.
@@keyboardwarrior2418 it is true, but the Audi A6 is nice
But an English car and you'll forget the model of your car
Forgot to mention it's much cheaper than the Germans for the same number of features while being more refined and reliable.
The car is not good enough
@@svein-haraldribland8559 It is. Already test drove it.
The German Brand's nickel and dime you to death for things that should be standard by now. It never ceases to amaze me how some folks seem to glaze over the fact that German cars typically have a lot of electrical issues. That's just a fact. These cars are very difficult to maintain. I have friends and family members who've had really bad and very expensive experiences with BMWs and Mercedes. I just think the German brands are made for people who can afford not to care how expensive the cars are to maintain. I believe their primary target is upscale customers. Although Lexus caters to upscale customers as well, I believe they target a much wider range of clients on both the high and lower ends of the financial scale, so reliability is a must.
@@svein-haraldribland8559 Not good enough for what? Most people don't drive cars on the racetrack. The average consumer is typically driving back and forth to work in rush hour traffic. I think some folks just get caught up on the brand name and the prestige that comes along with having a BMW or Mercedes. For us regular folks, we like to get the best bang for our buck, and reliability is a must. Lexus knocks it out of the park when it comes to reliability compared to those other brands.
@@PreferAndroid Germans and Lexus go after the same exact demographic. In fact, the ones on the wealthier side, I've noticed, go towards Lexus. The younger ones tend to like BMW more, regardless of reliability. Germans and reliability are an infamous duo, so everyone knows about how much they cost to maintain.
My grandad still uses his lexus from the 90’s still runs pretty reasonably considering my grandad drives like a maniac.
I actually switched from Germans to ES 300h. Cannot be happier!
I got this exact car last year! I just came back to say I'm still loving it
I have this car, but the 1993 model 😅
and im going for es 2000 model, love the shape
Lexus : best reliable luxuryous cars
@Vasu Maru -_-
Luxuryous
Being "reliable" is the only thing this Toyota has.
@@betterbeavailable for a lot of people its just enough for a car , its just A CAR. If you wan t to fly take a plane or a drone
Acura and Infiniti included
This was a very good honest review. I bought this model in the states, and love it for my commute. I’ll concede the shortcomings. They are much cheaper to repair than the Germans, and the brakes last to 150K miles since The regenerative braking takes most of the load. My fourth Toyota / Lexus hybrid in 15 years, and this one is the best at disguising the CVT’s motorboating noise. 🤓
After 100,000 miles, the Lexus will feel a lot better to drive and cost less to run than its German rivals.
Plus in 10 years it will still look modern due to its striking design like any other lexus.
I'm on 70k in a GS, so I'm 70% of the way to confirming this ☺ Convinced someone it was brand new last November (at about 68k). I also average about 37mpg at the moment, which doesn't sound great but nobody will find me a German car that'll do that, has luxuries like moisturising aircon and also goes from 0-150 only 1 second slower than an Aston Vantage (admittedly not the new one, but the same age as the GS). Just a shame the ES isn't as fun as the GS...
Not to mention, that when it comes time to upgrade to a new car, this Lexus will be worth thousands more then it’s German competition.
Will fell better to drive ?! Are you high ?
@Anton Babani I've had 3 BMWs 2 Ford/Lincoln 1 Mercedes and 2 Lexus. My 2 favorite Cars are/were the 5 series I had and the IS350. Nothing wrong with BMW Lexus or Mercedes. All are pretty damn nice cars
The town driving reminds me of Mats carbuyer days. Ahh.
When he used to drive round the mini roundabouts as much as he could before someone got annoyed 😂😂
@@jacobthompson8507 Oh hell yeah, I remember! 😂
Yeah... good old days
Lovely looking car, and full of features. It's pretty typical of his reviews of Lexus vehicles, being a lover of German cars.
People buy the Lexus because of it's reliability., unlike a BMW which uses so many plastic components.
Lexus is not more reliable than BMW because of the plastic, lol. You guys are absolute clowns. Why dont you keep your opinions in a box if theyre gonna be this dumb. BMWs are less reliable than Lexus' because they are generally 50% more powerfull and 70% faster and 100% stiffer while also managing to be more efficient... And all of this causes more wear and tear than what a grandpa mobile performance is able to do.
Most engine components that were resin based in old BMWs were there because of weight saving BTW. Lexus and Toyota could learn a little about it.
Just got myself 2016 lexus es350, fuel economy could be better, but overall I am satisfied with this purchase that will last me the next 10 years
Iron Shaft I just got the 2015 do you know the difference?
@@Jaystar876 2016 is a face lift only with some improvements in the lighting system & the gear box is wrapped with leather.
I bought a 2017 es 350 four months ago. Wonderful ride!!
hands down, the best car I ever owned. (2019 in California) I drive about 2500 miles per month. Gas in California is $4.25 per gallon. In Eco Mode and driving with a lite foot. I average 47 MPG. Hand down. Super comfortable, well thought out display. My only gripe is the infotainment system, not user friendly.
ES hybrid is incredible! One of the best hybrid sedans you can buy currently. Certainly a more comfortable and quite ride than a 5-series.
If you tried the new 5 series, what you said is definitely wrong.
@@hassanger8128 have you driven the ES? Lexus is known for comfort and quiet rides.
GMEnterprize and plastic interiors
Skyforce 213 I can indeed confirm that the 5 series is much better driving than this by a long shot.
The 5 series will give you the performance and power you would expect from a luxury car. Driving stability is far better than the Lexus that's for sure
Oh it will be better than any BMW once the warranty is gone lol.
Bring More Warrantyyyyyyyy.....
Lmao
I agree!
Three bimmers later and I love the reliability, maybe just lucky.

You’re an imbecile.
Please review more Lexus vehicles like the CT, NX, RX, GX, LX, GS, LS! I'll be looking forward for those reviews :)
He's already reviewed the RX and LS. And I don't think you can get the LX In the UK. The GS has been discontinued in the UK. However the others I agree with.
In term of reliability, absolutely.
But if you want an exciting factor, there is the GS.
The GS is an amazing driving vehicle.
I heard they might phase out the GS
Nah. The ES replaces the GS.
@@olibarber2232 there's still a 2019 but it's sad the GS is such a nice car. Lexus has plenty of $ to keep it going
The GS has been dropped in Europe.

Awesome car. I love it. German lovers are so frustrated 😂. I see salty comments 😂
Terrific review! Thanks for pointing out the flaws, other reviews only address the positive. Love it
I'm still laughing at Tonale (pronounced toe-nail).
Im never gonna call it To-nah-lai, ether.
I thought the GS would be the competitor for the A6, 5 series and the E class. The ES seems to be in a class of its own, focusing mainly on transporting passengers in comfort and being affordable.
It's really fun watching your videos. I hope you do a review of RX 450hl. Thanks!
Of course there is slightly scratchy plastic... it starts at 35k. Its not an LS lmao

Hey Mat, you should review the 2023 ES. Everyone including you have reviewed the German competitors, but not a lot of people reviewed the 2023 ES. Always been a fan of your presentation, so I look forward to your review!
Nobody buys them. Toyota doesnt advertise them... He probably doesnt even remember it exists
It’s certainly better than my 5 series that I had. Lexus keeps running flawlessly well into the years as the miles piling up without having issues.
I have es300 made in december 2019 and shipped over. It is excellent, has none of the issues mentioned here. My model is ES300 luxury sport and maybe thats why?
Reviewing Mazda 6: "The sunroof blind is manual, but why not! Look how easy it is! I quiet like it"
Reviewing Lexus ES: "Five annoying things: You have to open the sunroof blind manually."

Mazda is not a luxury brand, Lexus is.
XentyCZ Petterson is correct. 35k Lexus vs 25-28k Mazda
Makes a huge deal

Carwow and Matt fuckin trashing every Toyota product... just stop this shit
Really great looking car! To open the sun roof manually is not a problem, I find it good and practical. The height in the rear seats though is a problem.
I owned a Toyota for 5 years, bought it when it was 2 years old, I did ZERO maintenance on it, no oil change no maintenance whatsoever (I didn't even know that I was supposed to take it to shop for regular maintenance), only replaced battery 2-3 times and tyres as the usual, and maybe light bulb, and guess what, that Toyota car served me well, it never broke down, the only issue i had with it was when I had an accident and the car sat in the repair shop for over a month which then caused me trouble. Now I own a Lexus ES for 4 years now, bought it when it was 2 years old, done some little maintenance on it except recently haven't got time to take it to shop. And guess what, it still serves me well, zero problem and it works and it works and it works and it drives like new. You want reliability? You want a Toyota & Lexus.
like the updated format of the video and slightly longer video as well
yes i love scratching the plastic in my car...
HippoButtSecks well it’s from japan sooo...
E class got scratchy plastics in all down parts to.
@@petitflocon647 Yes it makes sense to have scratchy plastics down where it’s gonna get scuffed and knocked around. This guy is hyper sensitive about scratchy plastics though and always comments on it no matter what the car is.
😂 Why does he care so much about surfaces that he doesn't have to touch constantly/regularly like door handles/steering wheel/gear lever/seats etc. He ALWAYS gets into a car and starts scratching everything. I wonder if he has reviewed a vehicle with a plastic bumper and complained about how scratchy it is. Honestly kinda silly.
don't know, reliability might be way better than BMW
I mean it's a luxurios toyota camry so yes......it's reliable.
not maybe but its 100 times better than bmw
Uhh reliability isn’t even a fair contest. The Lexus will still be motoring when the 5 series sits in a junkyard.
A Japanese (that too Toyota) is way way more reliable than all Germans combined.

I’ve been in this car- super high quality and super quiet!
In your previous ES review ( in the USA ) you praised the ES dampers dealing with bumps, and now in this review they are not good ? different suspension setting USA vs UK ? thanks
I sit in an LS300h taxi right now and I love it here from the rear seat! ❤
This car has a beautiful black/tan interior and the seat is so much more comfortable compared to a Mercedes E-class, I would rate it somewhere in between E-class and S-class. And I have plenty of headroom, I'm 186 cm / 6'1" and I have at least 5 cm margin to the roof.
Only small minus (from rear seat perspective) is suspension comfort. I may be spoiled by my personal Mercedes with airmatic, but as I remember my time spent in the rear seat of Mercedes E-class taxis, I think also the Mercedes E-class ride with standard suspension better than the Lexus.
I can't understand why comparison company like carwow compares a lexus hybrid with german diesel and petrol cars, there is no comparison to make so stop doing it. I'm 71 and owned Mercedes and BMWs all my driving life, I have had my first lexus hybrid for just over a year now and I can honestly say my lexus is far superior in every department compared to Mercedes and bmw, lets face it lexus don't break.

The Grill on the Lexus IS absolutely awesome in my opinion, you can’t mistake it for anything else.

Exactly this is a baby LS really nice
The ES is a Toyota Camry.
More like 10 years younger LS , not baby lol
The LS and GS are rear wheel drives where ES is a front wheel drive. So how can the ES be a baby or younger LS? The GS IS a younger, sportier version of the LS.
Love, this channel! Nice lexus
Good stuff man thank you
A Lexus review with a BMW dominated comments 😂😂😂
Damn that front grille looks amazing! The inward bend is much sharper and more pronounced than usual, I love how psychedelic it is, like I've eaten a mushroom and now all the lines are converging and spiraling. It's the best version of the new Lexus front grille yet.
Shame about the rest of the car though.
Does anyone know if I order the car now it will be the updated version, the 2021? I'm not sure if the manufacturing has started yet.
And is there any more major updates except the screen?
Thinking about putting in an order in Sweden.
I’ve always liked Lexus. I like the way they look both inside and out. The only downside for me is not offering many “hot” versions of their cars.
Japanese ppl are so considerate in designing handy details!
I like the options cutscenes :)
I bought Es 350 2020 2 months ago. The more I drive, the more I like
That grille 😍😍😍
"........bettered by the Germans"? German reliability is nowhere in the same league as that of Lexus.
Yes but as a long term proposition rust will kill it in 10 years. Germans simply don't rot.

Hi Matt, what are your thoughts on the automatic gearbox.
Tested the ES250(non hybrid) and E200 a few months ago. The NVH on the Merc was more noticeable than the Lexus. And the buttery smooth 8 speed gearbox is just fantastic while the E Class was very jerky/hunting at low speed. Matt should not have compared this hybrid version to it's German rivals but rather should have done the ES350 3.5 litre V6 version.
gad-remember the merc remembers how you drive so you may have had a aggressive driver drive the car before you did and that is why the car was so jerky. it could also have been in a sport mode....Merc, lexus, bmw. porsche owner...
@@328skipad2 Hi buddy. The E class was jerky on certain occasion such as slowing down to a stop or constant slow speed(keeps hunting for the right gear). Once cruising the car, the E class, I have to admit is superior to none and I can also say that for the 5 series. The transmission on my ES is so smooth that a mechanic friend of mine thought it was running on CVT as he could not hear or feel any gear change. That's how amazing the ES is. Here in Singapore,only a handful hold their value in the long run,such as BMW,Lexus and Mercedes. The rest have terrible resale value.
It's just too bad they feel like they are decade behind the German's on tech. In the end most lease their luxury cars example here. I think that's the reason why Lexus just doesn't sell globally even 1/8 the amount example BMW sells. Also these days Toyota's reliability is not the same it was in the 80's and early 90's.
