What You Need to Know About the New 2019 Lexus ES

A new year means a new level of performance and sophistication for the luxury brand—Lexus. After many years of success, the seventh-generation Lexus ES is set to turn heads. The ES is known for its unparalleled comfort, exhilarating performance, and striking design in the entry-luxury sedan category. The 2019 model is no different, except that it offers more.

What’s new?

The new 2019 ES sedan is longer, wider, and lower. It has an all-new chassis, is more spacious, quieter, and safer. Customers will have a chance to choose between the standard ES 350, ES 300h, and the first ES 350 F SPORT. Equipped with class-leading active safety technology, better performance, and a refreshed interior, you’ll fall in love immediately. The new F SPORT model will have an entirely different interior appearance with an all-new metallic cabin trim that is unlike anything Lexus as done before.

Project Chief Designer, Yasuo Kajino, describes the look of the ES as “provocative elegance.”

“The ES has always been an elegant luxury sedan. For this generation, we have added daring design elements that challenge the traditional expectations of buyers.”

What about the hybrid?

Don’t forget the hybrid model: the ES 300h delivers exceptional fuel efficiency, responsive performance, and minimal emissions for all eco-friendly lovers. The hybrid powertrain has been updated with a new fourth-generation Hybrid Drive System. The all-new engine incorporates fast-burn combustion technology that makes it one of the most thermally efficient engines ever offered in Lexus. The EPA rates fuel economy at 43 mpg city, 45 mpg highway, and 44 mpg combined, leaving it with a better rate than the previous years’ models.

Safety and technology

Lexus is always dedicated to the safety of its vehicles. All 2019 ES models feature the new Lexus Safety System 2.0 with advanced technology, including lane tracing assist, bicyclist detection, and road sign detection to name a few. As we mentioned earlier, the new 2019 ES is Amazon Alexa-enabled. Drivers will be able to stay connected and use language commands to control many functions in the car and from home.

National Car Care Month: Tips to Care for Your Vehicle This Spring

Is your Lexus vehicle one of your most prized possessions? It should be. You invest a lot to be a Lexus owner and should flaunt what you have. The next question is, are you taking care of your vehicle? We hope so. April is National Car Care month and we are going to share three tips to get your vehicle ready for spring.

Clean the Exterior

Sometimes the winter months can be harsh on our vehicles and by the time it’s over, you should have a plan to get it cleaned up and looking fresh for spring. Caring for your means giving it a good clean bath and washing away all the salt, dirt, and grime that may have stuck around from winter. We recommend washing the exterior and focusing on the bottom areas of your vehicle. After that, give it a good wax to protect the paint and make it the shiniest vehicle on the block. If it’s easier, get a professional exterior detail and come back to a shiny new car.

Clean the Interior

Just like the exterior, the interior gets dirty too. When people walk into and out of your vehicle, they are bringing in dirt and other contaminants into your vehicle. Make sure to clean your mats, vacuum, wipe down everything you can and throw away everything that isn’t needed anymore. Having a clean car will be sure to brighten your mood on daily commutes.

Tires

After a long winter, your tires might be worn. It’s easy to do an inspection yourself to make sure you have the recommended amount of tread and good healthy tires. Having tires in good condition is important because they are the components that help you be in control of your vehicle. Bad tires can cause bad driving, which can be a hazard. Make sure you are keeping you and your loved ones safe on the road by having efficient tires.

Keeping your vehicle maintained is an important part of being a car owner. We want to help you keep your vehicle in great shape and because it’s National Car Care month, we are offering everyone a complimentary spring safety inspection.
