The next trim, the F Sport, begins at $45,800 and boosts the interior with stylish instrumentation and ventilated and heated front seats. The suspension is also sport-tuned. The ES 250 Luxury provides a more luxurious experience thanks to interior wood trim, ambient lighting, and a 14-way power-adjustable driver's seat. The final trim, the ES 250 Ultra Luxury, uses a kick sensor on the trunk and perforated leather-trimmed interior. Unique Features of the ES The ES 250 boasts a brand new 2.5-liter in-line four-cylinder engine that pumps out 203 horsepower. Also new is the addition of blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert on both the F Sport and Ultra Luxury trims. A Rich Cream interior color is available, and the entire ES lineup now includes onboard Wi-Fi and Lexus's suite of Safety Connect features. The cabin is uniquely spacious for a car of this size, allowing adequate legroom for even tall passengers in both rows. Seat support is also comfortable throughout, a quality that sport sedans sometimes lack as they focus more on performance and less on ride quality. And the trunk measures a lofty 17.0 cubic feet, making it larger than such rivals as the Volvo S90 and Acura TLX. Your eye may first be drawn to the elegant signature lines Lexus is famous for, but the ES 250 is much more than another pretty car.
