2014 Lexus ES 300h review

1. Hybrid  

You can spend less time and money at the gas pump with the 2014 Lexus ES 300h. The sedan comes with a 2.5L four-cylinder engine, coupled with an electric motor. With that 200-hp propulsion system, the ES 300h gets an EPA-estimated 40 mpg combined fuel economy.

2. Plenty of space 

If you’re tall, getting comfortable in a sedan can be tricky. Not so with the 2014 Lexus ES 300h. The sedan has nearly 42 inches of legroom in the front seats, and 40 inches in the rear seats, enough to accommodate long-legged passengers or bulky rear-facing car seats. The standard tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel helps you find the right driving position every time.  

3. Driving modes 

Sometimes, you want peppy acceleration as you commute to a big meeting. Other times, you want a more subdued driving experience. The 2014 Lexus ES 300h can deliver three different styles of driving, thanks to the standard “Drive Mode Select” system. Choose between sport performance, all-electric, or the ECO mode, best for day-to-day driving.  

4. Luxury touches 

If you’re someone who always chooses an available upgrade, select a 2014 Lexus ES 300h with the available Ultra Luxury package. That adds a panoramic sunroof, a power seat sunshade, and power-adjustable thigh length for the driver's seat. A premium 15-speaker Mark Levinson^® surround-sound system is available as part of the Navigation package.  

5. Available driver assist  

The 2014 Lexus ES 300h offers you peace of mind with an array of stand-alone driver-assist options. These include blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane departure warning, and more. For long commutes, choose an ES 300h with available adaptive cruise control.
