Engine and fuel

It uses the 3.0L 6-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 39 litres, from its 13.1 L/100 km rating. In money, 1,000 km costs about $203.10 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,700 a year for 15,000 miles.

Who the ES suits

It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

Practical details

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. The EPA measures its luggage space at 396 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Try before you buy

Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Rent the ES for a week and see how it fits your life.

Picking a year and a trim

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

Running costs

The EPA estimates US$3,700 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
