A New Level of Performance and Sophistication - The Next Generation of Lexus ES

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

After six generations of unprecedented success in the midsize sedan category, the next-generation #Lexus #es is forging a new, more ambitious path. Long known for its unparalleled comfort, refinement and luxury appointments, the seventh-generation #es builds on its strengths with an all-new chassis that allows for a more dynamic exterior design and even better driving performance.

The introduction of the new #Lexus #es continues the expression of the brand's design direction and commitment towards crafting vehicles with heightened excitement, emotion and passion expanding that vision of the brand's future to a broader audience. Traditional buyers will find the new #es more spacious, quieter and safer than ever before while a new generation of customers will be introduced to a sedan with sharpened performance, class-leading safety technology and a level of craftsmanship rarely found in this segment.

The New Dimension of #es Design

Built on the all-new Global Architecture―K (GA-K) platform, the new #es pushes the limits of design in the midsize luxury sedan class. This #es is longer (+2.6 in), lower (-.2 in) and wider (+1.8 in.) than before with wheels that have been pushed closer to the corners thanks to a two-inch longer wheelbase and wider tracks front (+.4 in) and rear (+1.5 in). It's stance and proportions reflect its newfound performance capabilities and give the #es the kind of eye-catching appearance that will make owners take a second look as they walk away.

Project Chief Designer, Yasuo Kajino, describes the look of the #es as "provocative elegance". Kajino says"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."

To create a dynamic yet fluid shape, Kaijino's team used the low hood enabled by the new #es platform to produce a distinctive silhouette emphasized by an aggressive downward slant. Up front, the face of the #es is dramatically different depending on the model. The standard #es 350 and the #es 300h use elegant vertical bars that radiate out from the center while the #es 350 F SPORT model adopts a blacked out cross-hatch pattern that corresponds with cut outs at each corner of the fascia.

In a break with #es models of the past, the seventh-generation design uses a fast roofline that emphasizes its lower stance and slippery aerodynamics. The rear end is clean and sharply chiseled, with LED taillamps that wrap around the quarter panels to provide a continuous styling line from any angle. F SPORT models add a rear spoiler, additional rear badging and a dark lower valance to further refine the look. There are three different wheel designs (17- and 18-inch) for the #es 350 and #es 300h while the #es 350 F SPORT gets standard 19-inch wheels with a design similar to that found on the LC coupe.

A dozen colors make up the exterior paint palette including two new shades, one green and one beige, that are anything but typical. Moonbeam Beige Metallic was designed to mimic light reflecting off fresh snow, while Sunlight Green replicates the color of ocean water brightened by the sun. F SPORT models get an exclusive Heat Blue color that compliments its high-energy design.
