Best EV Car – New Electric Car Reviews

NEW Lexus ES 350e review – where has this been?

Lexus has gone completely electrical in the UK with its newest ES

The brand new Lexus ES350e intends to handle some severe competitors including the BMW i5, Volvo ES90, Audi A6 e-tron, and Mercedes C-Class. However with approximately 361 miles of WLTP range and 150kW DC quick charging, has the competition carried on too rapidly and left Lexus behind?

In this very first drive, Nicola takes you through everything you need to understand about the new ES350e, from its design and luxurious interior to the battery, cruising manners, efficiency and usefulness.

The ES350e could be Lexus' essential EV. The brand's first EV, the RZ, didn't impress with battery tech, variety and charging. So will Lexus pull it out of the bag with this executive saloon?

Will it suffice to lure you away from a BMW, Audi or Mercedes?

Let us know in the comments which electric executive saloon you 'd choose.

      They don’t want it to sell well hence make it uglier than petrol/hybrid models.

    I actually don’t hate this design, it’s the range and the battery capacity of this car that concerns me a lot ,it’s like Toyota/Lexus are 5-6 years behind the competition with those specs ngl ,so there’s just no point for even the Toyota loyalists to buy this car

      toyota and honda have always been behind. that’s why they are reliable. they don’t innovate as much as they use things that are proven to be good, apply it to their cars and make it great. So it’s normal to be not the biggest fastest charging battery etc, but in around 3-5 years, I expect some very competent models to come out.

      Why the rush in selling money-losing vehicles?

      @yo2@yo2trader539ause if you build a competent manufacturing line and actually offer a competitive product then it needn’t be a ‘money losing’ vehicle.

    “Too little, too late” was the perfect summary

      …or possibly ‘Too big, too late’.

      Too little, too late, too expensive.

    This would make a great used buy in a few years. A 10 year battery warranty is amazing!

      At least in the US, an 8yr/100k mi warranty is legally required anyway. And even in other countries without that legal requirement, the battery for any global car will obviously be built to that standard.

      Toyota only uses high quality batteries (based on Panasonic battery technology), which is why they are comfortable with a long battery warranty. Early Tesla models assembled in the US also exclusively used Panasonic batteries for safety and reliability.

      It’s only when dealer serviced for full term. Others just give 8 year no issue and transferable.

    How about a comparison of this with a second hand (ex demo?) EQS?

    5:20 does that charge port door block some CCS chargers? I feel like it might.

    We have a 2022 MG5 and a 2023 MG4, very happy with both cars.
    I am very much considering an MG IM5 as my next car. I cannot imagine any reason to buy this Lexus.

      Not many MG buyers consider a Lexus. They’re for very different people. Don’t think you’re their target market.

      ​@joey-pn3xe I most definitely am not their target market. I have never been into brand snobbery.
      I have owned cars of desire, my 911 Carrera GT, back when I was younger, was bought for driving pleasure as opposed the badge on it.

    Rats, I am called Gary and this is the sort of car that I would consider, having previously owned a last generation GS450H. I learnt the joys of waft driving when I had a Citroen C6, which was replaced by my Lexus and now a Genesis (guess I go for left field luxury cars). I learnt one of the big reasons why you buy a Lexus with my GS. At 9 years old I was still able to get full manufacturers warranty and the car felt like it was just 2-3 years old. Just a shame it is not a dedicated EV. Might be tempted by a 2-3 year old Takumi spec in a few years time.

    The ioniq5 launched in 2021 and blows this heap of trash out of the water from an EV perspective.
    800V, 230kW+ max charging speed and with ane exceptionally flat curve that will do over 170kW at 70%.

    5 years later and this is the best toyota/lexus come out with.. This car is a joke

    10 years warranty, in Germany even 15 years….good range given the small battery pack and good charging. A relativly lightweight compared to other EV’S. I think it is a very nice and capable EV….
