The Lexus ES250 F Sport, it would seem, is one answer: take the historically least sporty Lexus saloon - the FWD Toyota Camry-based ES - and apply a racy garnish to it. And in case you thought this was just some cynical window dressing, there’s some legitimacy to it: a couple years ago I interviewed the ES’s Chief Engineer Yasuhiro Sakakibara, who said the current-gen ES was engineered to be a sharper drive than before to cover some of the ground lost when the RWD Lexus GS was discontinued.

Lexus ES250 F Sport review: Purpose Undefined

For decades the Lexus ES has been saddled with something of an old-man image; can racier F Sport mods put the spring of youth in its step?

The steering feels much weightier, with feedback adequately delivered from the front two tyres. But like any other cars, there are some issues still — the steering has this strange habit of artificially correcting itself and on top of that, torque steer is present. The latter something you do not expect from a car in this class. Brakes have been given the much needed improvement — the previous model has this weird habit of lacking feel when worked hard, but with this new one, it provides more assuring bite which is useful at slowing down the car.

By reintroducing the ES, Lexus provides the answer to those who do not require a sporty GS

The new Lexus ES has been re-introduced in Singapore after a seven-year hiatus and has been designed to exude the Essence of Luxury with its class-leading spacious comfort and world-class refinement. For the first time ever, the new ES will include a hybrid model, alongside the ES 250 petrol model. Boasting a quieter, smoother yet more powerful ride, the new ES Hybrid elevates the new Lexus ES as a class-apart, while strengthening Lexus’ leadership in hybrid offerings.

The new Lexus ES will be available in two models — ES 250 and ES Hybrid. The ES 250 is powered by a 2.5-litre gasoline engine delivering 184bhp and the ES Hybrid is powered by a 2.5-litre Atkinson cycle engine delivering 205bhp.
