The F Sport trim is a new addition to the ES hybrid.

Nobody buys the Lexus ES for driving excitement, and that will not change for 2022. Mildly refreshed, this cushy cruiser remains true to its roots, focusing on comfort, fuel efficiency and 바카라사이트추천 long-haul dependability instead of corner-carving performance or cutting-edge design. The 2022 Lexus ES 300h gains new infotainment tech, added safety features and a few styling enhancements -- including a new F Sport package -- which are small alterations that make a solid product just a little bit better. 

Minor updates for 2022

A few things set the ES apart from last year's model, the most noticeable of which is an updated grille on non-F Sport models. The texture filling that gaping maw is more pronounced than before, consisting of chiseled "L" shapes radiating outward from the Lexus badge. Beyond that, several fresh wheel designs are offered, and the rear suspension gains a new brace for greater torsional rigidity, which Lexus claims enhances stability and riding comfort. Even rolling on honkin' 19-inch wheels, this ES 300h F Sport is still a paragon of refinement. When driven on pockmarked backroads the suspension does an excellent job filtering out harshness, meaning there's little vibration or grittiness to be felt in the passenger compartment.
