Suphakorn Ratanvaha, Senior Managing Director of Lexus Group at Toyota Motor Thailand, announced the launch of The All-New Lexus ES on Thursday, August 13, 2025, at M Sphere shopping mall. The Lexus ES is a mid-size luxury sedan that debuted alongside the Lexus brand in 1989 in the United States. Since then, the ES has earned widespread recognition for its smooth ride quality, quiet cabin, and spacious interior—hallmarks that define its DNA to this day. Thailand first introduced the Lexus ES in 1994, where it gained popularity as a luxury sedan renowned for superior comfort and meticulous attention to detail. The model has built a loyal following among Thai executives.

The All-New Lexus ES follows the concept "Experience Elegant and Electrified Sedan." This eighth-generation model has been completely redesigned to reflect Lexus's vision for the future of mobility. It is both Lexus's second battery electric vehicle and the brand's first all-electric sedan. The vehicle combines elegance, advanced technology, and driving performance seamlessly, featuring five key highlights:

Distinctive Elegant Design: The All-New Lexus ES showcases a contemporary elegant exterior with the new generation Spindle Body design, Twin L Signature Lamp headlights, and Slim Light Bar taillights. The cabin is designed under the "Clean Tech and Elegant" concept, delivering a luxurious and airy atmosphere that engages all the senses in true Lexus fashion.

Choice of Powertrain: The All-New Lexus ES offers both a new-generation 2.5-liter Hybrid system and a battery electric vehicle powertrain, meeting diverse customer needs while reflecting Lexus's Multi-Pathway Strategy toward sustainability and environmental responsibility. All vehicles include proper battery disposal through certified companies.

State-of-the-Art Technology: The interior is packed with modern technology including Hidden Switches, Electro-Shiftmatic system, new-generation Multimedia system, and Mark Levinson premium audio, elevating the travel experience.

Advanced Safety: Lexus Safety System+ 4.0 enhances safety and confidence on every journey with the latest Lexus safety technology.
