Key things to evaluate:

• Safety package: Lexus Safety System+ 2.5
• Infotainment: touchscreen infotainment display with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Amazon Alexa integration
• Fuel efficiency: We averaged 37 mpg on our testing route, the car in its Normal driving mode the majority of the time. While that’s substantially less than the EPA’s official 44 mpg rating in combined driving, achieving econobox gas mileage in a big luxury sedan, and without trying, is remarkable.

What Lexus ES Hybrid do most buyers choose?

The Lexus ES Hybrid years with the most listings are 2024, 2025, and 2023.

The highest-volume years tend to be the most popular used picks because they give you the broadest selection of listings and the easiest path to comparing prices, mileage, and equipment.

• Tech: In addition to the new touchscreen display, which is mounted 4.3 inches closer to the driver and front passenger for ease of use, the infotainment system includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility as well as Amazon Alexa integration.
• Safety: Lexus Safety System+ 2.5 equips the ES with a Level 2 hands-on driving assistance system in the form of adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability paired with lane-centering assistance.

If you're buying used today, the 2024 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
