Lexus’s mid-sized ES luxury sedan is getting a redesign for its eighth generation that includes some edgier styling and a significant platform change that accommodates both an all-electric drivetrain and a regular hybrid one.

Toyota’s luxury label reimagines and redesigns its best-selling sedan for the electrified era.

Almost more interesting than the new hybrid model, the ’26 ES 350e and ’26 ES 500e models bring the ES sedan into the battery-electric age. The 350e packs a single-drive motor that feeds the front wheels. The 500e adds another drive module at the rear, which gives the ES all-wheel drive.
