The Lexus ES 500e marks a major step for Lexus in India as the brand’s first fully electric offering. Launched at an introductory price of ₹89.99 lakh (ex-showroom), this luxury sedan combines performance, range and signature craftsmanship in a futuristic package.
Exterior Design: Sleek, Futuristic and Distinctive
The ES 500e stands out with its sharp, aerodynamic styling. Up front, it features a bold ‘cliff-face’ nose with a blanked-off grille—a signature EV design cue. The twin L-shaped LED daytime running lamps and projector LED headlamps give it a distinctive identity.
The side profile is equally striking, with 21-inch aero-optimised alloy wheels and a unique black Z-shaped trim running along the doors. At the rear, a slim LED light bar stretches across the width, complemented by an illuminated Lexus badge, adding a premium and modern touch.
Interior: Minimalism Meets High-Tech Luxury
Inside, the cabin follows a clean and minimalistic design philosophy. The layout is centred around dual digital displays that handle infotainment and driver information seamlessly.
