Lexus ES 350

Lexus
The fifth-generation ES, the ES 350, blurs the line between "entry luxury" and "prestige-luxury" in many ways. Minor interior and exterior revisions highlight the 2008 model.

The front-wheel-drive ES 350 comes standard with a powertrain that matches or exceeds some competitors' upgrade models in this segment. A 272-horsepower, 3.5-liter V6 is teamed with a six-speed automatic transmission, enabling the ES 350 to accelerate from zero-to-60 mph in 6.8 seconds. The ES 350 is certified to the Ultra-Low Emission Vehicle II (ULEV II) standard.

The luxurious ES 350 interior features standard 10-way power seats, power tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, SmartAccess with push-button start and a versatile multi-information display. The brand's focus on safety for the ES 350 includes standard Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) and eight standard airbags.
