After driving a variety of entry level and mid level luxury cars, I still revert back to the Lexus ES 300h as my go to $50k luxury car. For 2022 I still believe the Luxury trim is the best option, but we will explore the other trims. 2021 Lexus ES 350 F Sport Review: https://youtu.be/NTqUK0Jyv4s

I really appreciate the hybrid ES because it truly gets 40 mpg with real world driving. The V6 ES 350 is certainly a tried and true classic but with today’s gas prices I think going with the silky smooth ES 300h is the way to go. The Ultra Luxury trim is decent if you want to get your ES fully loaded but I would save the $2,000 and get the Luxury trim. I would avoid the ES 250 AWD model all together because if that’s what you want just get a Camry AWD. The base model ES is much more enticing this year but as you can see when you start to build one the price gets close to the luxury trim anyway. I hope to do coverage on the 2022 Lexus NX soon and I will do a build video on the 2022 Acura RDX as well.
