Does anyone know of any dealers in the Northeast that have a 2026 Heritage, there are a couple on autotrader, but when you go to the actual dealer site, shows 0. My goal is to buyout my 2022, but I want to see what a 2026 would look like numbers wise, I have so much equity in my current lease.

 

Lexus wants you to just go out and buy the ES500.
It’s big. It’s long.
The redesigned 2026 Lexus ES has increased in size, with an overall length of 202.3 inches (5,140 mm) for both hybrid and all-electric models. This represents a significant increase of approximately 6.5 inches over the previous generation, resulting in a larger wheelbase of 116.1 inches, improving interior space.

 

Nah. Doesn't have 416hp and is front drive. No thanks.

 

Actually:


The 2026 Lexus ES 500e is an all-electric, dual-motor sedan delivering a total system output of approximately
338 to 343 horsepower. It features DIRECT4 all-wheel drive and is designed as the performance-focused, all-electric flagship of the new 2026 ES lineup, boasting a 0–60 mph time of 5.4 seconds
Considering electric motor torque, it may not be too slow.

 

yeah, to be honest, its a down grade from the LS, hopefully Lexus makes another sedan in this segment or I'll go LX, Range Rover, or S class.

 

Yeah, I didn’t say I like the new ES, just stating fact.
Toyota seems determined to go hybrid or all electric with the entire lineup, Lexus included.
LX is a little pricey for a vehicle to run around town.
TX V6 hybrid is pricey too.
With the war and possibility of party change in the White House in 2028 there’s probably not much chance for future 6 cylinder or V8 sedans.
Paying 70 grand for a 4 cylinder doesn’t interest me in the least.
EV range is a big problem for most of us.
Guess I will stick with my old LSs or go back to driving trucks.
