The 2019 Lexus ES for buyers
No 2019 Lexus ES is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Before you buy the 2019 Lexus ES, here is what the figures say and what to look at.
Recalls and complaints
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Owners filed 40 complaints with NHTSA, most often about fuel/propulsion system, engine and air bags; have those parts checked.
The figures, translated
Power: the 2.5L 4-cylinder hybrid; drive: front-wheel drive. As a hybrid, it does best in stop-and-go traffic, where the electric motor does more of the work. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
By the EPA's combined rating of 5.3 L/100 km, 300 km takes about 16 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $8.22 to drive 100 km. The EPA estimates US$1,500 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Inside and out
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. Its 396 litre trunk is enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
When the ES makes sense
Its low fuel use suits long commutes and high-kilometre weeks. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
Rent it for a week first
Try the ES on your commute, then decide. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. A week with the ES answers more than any brochure.
Running costs
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $8.22 in fuel. The EPA estimates US$1,500 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Which one to look for
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
