2019 Lexus ES Review: Very Reliable Midsize Luxury Sedan With Low Ownership Costs

Sep 5, 2023

The 2019 Lexus ES lasts around 300,000 miles with relatively minor fuel pump and stereo system software issues reported. At $34,350 to $42,005, it’s a great value for a very long-lasting sedan with a luxurious interior for the money.

The Good

There is a ton of standard safety technology, the cabin is very quiet and isolated from the road and cargo space is also better than many competitors.

The Bad

The stereo system is complicated to use with the trackpad, gear changes are slow in the transmission and the rear seats do not fold down.

Is the 2019 Lexus ES a Good Used Car?

Overall Rating 9/10 – 2019 is a great year for the Lexus ES since it offers a lot of new technology and improved performance from earlier years. Owner reviews praise the low ownership costs, comfortable seats, and the wood trim accents.
Interior, Comfort & Cargo 9/10 – Interior materials are very nice for a sedan in its price range, the seats are comfortable on longer trips, cargo space is also excellent.
Reliability 10/10 – There are no widespread mechanical complaints on the 2019 Lexus ES. In general ES models from 2010–2022 are all extremely reliable and long-lasting choices.
Performance 8/10 – Performance is decent from the standard V6 engine found in the ES, although it’s not as quick as some of its German competitors.
Safety 9/10 – The 2019 ES is very safe, earning a perfect 5-star rating in government crash tests. It comes standard with adaptive cruise control as well as lane keep assist. Optional safety features include blind spot monitoring along with a head-up display.
Gas Mileage 8/10 – Fuel economy is good at up to 26 MPG, giving 413 miles of range out of the 15.9 gallon tank. Gas costs are $40 lower than average, at $187 per month.
Value 8/10 – The 2019 Lexus ES is more expensive than some other midsize luxury cars on the market, but slow depreciation rates help give it a good overall value score.

My Lexus es 350 is my favorite car I've ever had.

I love my Lexus es350 it is the most comfortable car. Everything is so easy to use because if the features on the steering wheel. I use all the safety features like back up camera and when I am leaning into another lane it vibrates to let me know. The car is very fast on pickup with a smooth ride. The music system sounds great too.

Marsha R

It is a smooth ride! The car design looks great.

No issues. I love the smooth ride, all the features such as leather seats, heat warming or cooling seats and steering wheels. The driver's seat is very comfortable and I have the option to change driving mode to economy. The only thing I do not like is that it does not come with full navigation.

John M

I love the style of the car.

Love this car. It has amazing performance, good gas mileage, and is so comfortable. I would recommend it to anyone! I love all of the features including the standard safety system that includes adaptive cruise control. Definitely makes the driving experience more enjoyable.

Joyce C

Heaven in a vehicle along life's highway.

The performance of this car is extremely first class. Ride is smooth. Park assist works superbly. Mileage is terrific. Love the style and design. A wonderful experience. My dealership has provided excellent service. The wide screen navigation system allows easier traveling.

Blake A

Well appointed Lexus. Impressive and reliable.

I have never had any problems with this vehicle. Very comfortable and reliable. Bluetooth and safety features are very good. Exterior appearance is very impressive and paint is deluxe. Storage space is limited but I do not have a large family. So this is not an issue.

Johnny B

The 2019 Lexus Experience

It's a really good car I love the features and enjoy using it. One of the best features is the horsepower it has a lot while also making sure that you don't get too nervous while on the wheel. The apps that we can download are also very helpful because I can listen to my music while just staying in the car.

Lynn C

I love my Lexus hybrid ES

I really like all the attributes that it has. I can set the speed control and it keeps me in the lane and it keeps me four car lengths back from the car in front of me. That's one of my favorite things about it. Also it's a hybrid. It is a very comfortable ride.

John G.

Very uncomfortable front seats!

I have been purchasing Lexus for my company's cars for the last 7 years, and have been a very loyal Lexus customer. I currently drive a 2016 es 350, it is our 4th ES. I have always considered it the best value luxury sedan. I just drove a 2019 ES as a loaner while my car was being serviced. I can't believe it! Lexus put very narrow and uncomfortable sports seats in the new ES. They are so tight a 15-minute drive to my office was extremely uncomfortable! I had several other people sit in the seats and their opinion was the same as mine - terrible seats I guess for us it is "goodbye Lexus". We are moving to Mercedes. I highly recommend anyone considering the 2019/20 ES350 take a long drive and check out the seats before you decide to purchase.

Ellen Williamson

Full of computer gimicks, lacking MORE BASIC functions

As usual, I bought the base model, without any upgrade. And this ES350 turns out MORE BARREN than a Honda Civic, or my 2002 Acura. There is no seat memory. WORST STILL. NO TRIP meter. There is supposed to be an ODO trip button on the steering wheel which allows you to switch between odometer, trip A and trip B. But it's not there. I am sure this is because the BARE BONE ES350 is completely barren. Yes. It has hundreds of computer functions. But I am not interested in them. I just want the most basic things: seat memory and trip meter. Who'd know to buy a LUXURY car I have to check all the BASIC functions? I really regret buying this car BIG TIME. ES350 base model is worthless. You must pay at least $2k more to be a luxury package. The design of ES350 is a big CHEAT!!

Tom Smith

Connecting connecting via Bluetooth

I just rented a Lexus ES car and I I just rented a Lexus ES car and I have to tell you this has been the worst usability experience of any car that I have ever tried. Everything from not being able to find out how to scan from one radio station to the next, to being able to set a radio station on my list, to not being able to connect anything via Bluetooth. What a usability nightmare. Lexus, you should be ashamed of yourself. Fix your problems so people can use your systems. Even the cruise control works totally different than every other car I have used. So ridiculous.

Megan H

Too complex to be comfortable.

I have driven Lexus for a long time and I usually love them. This car is not one I love. It is simply too technical I can't figure out how to work the majority of upgrades and even an outside company could not figure out how to reset the oil change manager. It's beautiful and has wonderful safety features, but the day to day driving needs are too complex for me.

Sandy koo

Navigation issue

The navigation for turn lists display the turns from bottom to top. This is not customary and it is very confusing., not to mention unsafe. Lists of sequences are usually displayed from top to bottom. I cannot believe this is what Lexus intended

Consumer Reports says the 2019 Lexus ES is a very rewarding midsize luxury sedan with all the features shoppers want, while also getting high owner satisfaction scores.

What Common Problems Does the 2019 Lexus ES Have?

Common problems found on the 2019 Lexus ES include a worn-out fuel pump, premature brake wear, along with a frozen stereo system. Overall, these problems are better than other luxury sedans on the market, leading to low repair costs as the ES ages.

A worn-out fuel pump is the most widespread complaint on the 2019 Lexus ES, showing up within the first 20,000 miles. There is a massive recall covering a lot of Lexus and Toyota vehicles for the fuel pump which can fail suddenly. Lexus dealers will replace the fuel pump assembly in affected models for free.

Premature brake wear is another problem mentioned by some 2019 Lexus ES owners within the first 15,000 miles. Excessive brake force can cause the front brakes to wear down quicker than in some competitors. Replacing the front brake pads costs around $250, while a set of rotors is about $500 if they have been worn down.

A frozen stereo system has also been reported on the Lexus ES at around 2,500 miles. There are software updates available for the stereo system which improves its reliability. Most dealerships will install these updates for free as part of a normal service, while others charge around $50 for the labor.

There are three recalls on the 2019 Lexus ES, which is better than other midsize luxury sedans on the market. The two most serious recalls cover the fuel pump which may fail, and the third covers airbags. Lexus will replace parts on affected models for free.

How Long Will the 2019 Lexus ES Last?

A well-maintained 2019 Lexus ES can last over 300,000 miles, which is much longer than other luxury cars on the market including the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. Regular annual maintenance costs are more affordable than the competition, according to data provided by Repair Pal, at $418 per year.

As a used 2019 ES reaches 100,000 miles, and depending on the vehicle history, owners should be prepared to replace the power steering pump for $590, A/C expansion valve costing $650, along with the transmission shift cable which costs $1,000.

How Is the Technology?

Entertainment technology is excellent, including a standard 8-inch central screen. Optional upgrades include a larger 12.3-inch display, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, along with a premium Mark Levinson stereo system.

What Engines Come In the Lexus ES?

The engine found in the 2019 ES is a 3.5-liter V6. This power plant delivers 302 horsepower, at up to 26 MPG. It’s mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Regarding performance, this engine propels the ES from 0 to 60 MPH in just around 6.6 seconds.

What Colors Does the Lexus ES Come In?

How Comfortable Is the Lexus ES?

The 2019 Lexus ES exemplifies the luxury and attention to detail for which the brand is known for. Stepping inside the cabin, one is immediately greeted with a harmonious blend of high-quality materials and expert craftsmanship. The seats, whether clad in supple leather or premium synthetic fabrics depending on the trim, exude a sense of luxury and support. They are thoughtfully designed to cradle the occupants, making even long journeys feel effortless and relaxed. The spacious interior further augments comfort, offering ample legroom and headroom to both the driver and passengers, guaranteeing everyone feels at ease during their travels.

Beyond just the tactile and aesthetic appeal, the engineering behind the 2019 Lexus ES prioritizes passenger comfort. The sedan’s suspension is masterfully tuned, adeptly cushioning the cabin from road imperfections and delivering a ride that is both smooth and poised. Lexus engineers have also made significant strides in noise reduction. Through advanced noise insulation techniques and design strategies, the ES effectively minimizes external disturbances such as road and wind noise. The resultant ambiance is one of serenity and calm, making each journey in the ES a luxurious retreat from the outside world.

How Much Storage Space Does the Lexus ES Have?

The 2019 Lexus ES boasts a spacious interior, but regarding its trunk storage space, it offers a respectable 16.7 cubic feet of room. This capacity is comparable to many sedans in its class. With 16.7 cubic feet of space, you could easily fit a combination of medium-to-large suitcases, golf bags, or a week’s worth of groceries. This makes the Lexus ES suitable for both everyday commutes and longer road trips, ensuring passengers have ample space for their luggage and essentials. It’s this combination of luxury and practicality that helps to set the ES apart in its segment.

What Are the Differences Between Years?

The seventh generation of the Lexus ES was introduced for the 2019 model year.

2015: Upgraded leather upholstery, a standard touchscreen, and more technology features added.

2016: Additional sound-deadening material used throughout the cabin, Bi-LED headlights, and an improved safety system.

2017: Updated stereo system with new graphics, and Lexus Safety System+.

2018: No updates from earlier years.

2019: Fully redesigned for the seventh generation with an upgraded V6 engine, improved technology, and a sportier F-Sport model.

2020: No major changes from earlier years.

2021: Small changes to the available options packages, and the new Black Line Special edition was launched.

How Does the Lexus ES Compare to the Competition?

The 2019 Lexus ES is one of the best midsize luxury sedans on the market since it combines excellent technology features and better reliability ratings than most of the competition.

The Lexus GS is another midsize sedan offered by Lexus, which can be found for around $2,500 more. Where the Lexus GS stands out is with a sportier driving experience, while the Lexus ES is more comfortable on rough roads. We recommend the Lexus ES for most people unless you’re looking for the improved performance of the GS.

The BMW 5 Series is a competitor which can be found in the same price range used. The BMW 5 Series has more powerful engine choices available, while the Lexus ES has much lower ownership costs. We recommend the Lexus ES as a used sedan since it will last longer and has fewer complaints from owners.

Linda H on June 24, 2021

I live my Lexus, but miss a few extras.

The es350 is a comfortable family car but I am the primary and sole driver. Lots of trunk space provides room for hauling my gardening supplies, plants, soil, mulch, etc. The roomy back seat provides plenty of legroom for adults while the front seats are fully adjusted backwards. With a pet sling in the backseat I can continue all of my gardening hauling purchases. And, of course, there’s plenty of room for my standard poodle to ride along. There’s a good amount of pep in the engine particularly in sport mode which I use often. The drive is very smooth and it is easy to lose track of your speed. The engine is Lexus quiet. Features are nice I have the full moon roof (over the driver and backseat ). Display is classy and visually appealing. A few negatives inclus=de glitchy voice recognition and somewhat limited communication capabilities. For instance there is no link to Alexa. There is also limited capability to send and receive text messages and email.

My Lexus es 350 is my favorite car I've ever had.

John G. on March 21, 2021

Very uncomfortable front seats!

Virginia L on March 13, 2021

2019 Lexus es luxury. Great for any travelers. Welcomes you to each state.

The es is extremely comfortable and roomy. Plenty of trunk space for cargo. The car has a smooth, quiet ride. It has showed great performance on big city interstates, to riding the curvy roads in the mountains. It has great technology features to make driving easy and distraction-free. Perfect car for long commutes and travel.

John M on February 13, 2021

I love the style of the car.

Brandon D on January 15, 2021

Lexus es 350: my thoughts.

My Lexus es 350 has excellent fuel efficiency and is very comfortable. It has leather seats and can travel 50 miles per gallon on average. I fill up on gas every 3 weeks. It has amazing features such as a tablet sized screen which can be used to connect your phone to and to play songs from the radio or to do a navigation. The speakers of the car sound really amazing when playing music.

Rebeca C on January 6, 2021

The pros and cons, convenience and comfortability of the 2019 Lexus.

It is a nice and comfortable car. Although I feel that it may not be the most convenient especially if you are planning on starting a family or have one already. The features are nice but again not very convenient. For it being an expensive car you would hope that there would be more features. Even the cup holders are not placed very conveniently. It is very small and only 2 people fit in the back and they will not be very comfortable because the person sitting in the front would have to adjust their seat for the people in the back.

Joseph L on November 22, 2020

The grey car with red interior is beautiful.

This car drives amazingly. The turns that you can make with this car are incredibly smooth and controlled. The sound system is great and the technological controls are too. I had the gs prior to this car and I can honestly say that even though this is technically a step down, I prefer this one much more.

Andrea L on November 18, 2020

Excellent Lexus ES! Super luxurious, safe and comfortable!

I love this car! I've had no problems at all! It's super comfortable and luxurious. I love all the modern features it includes like the large screen, Wi-Fi and premium sound system. It drives very smooth and I feel very safe in it. I've only had this car 5 months but so far it's my favorite Lexus I've had and it's my 3rd Lexus.

Jackie K on September 23, 2020

The sound system is really great.

The drive is very smooth and catered to the driver. There are assisted brakes and sensors that really help with driving and parking. The only problem I have is the size. It is quite long and wide for a sedan so it does not fit into some spaces but not a big issue. The mpg is also reasonable.

Anett Y on September 20, 2020

Lexus es300h - comfort to the fullest.

Honestly it's one of the best cars I have driven. The comfort of this car is amazing! The drive is extremely smooth and not bumpy at all. This car is also very fuel efficient. It has a battery which it will occasionally use as well. The screen in front is nice as well. It's a pretty good size and has many different features and things you can see on it. So far I haven't had any problems with this car. Definitely one of my favorites, ever! Very comfortable inside as well. The back passengers have a lot of space and is not tight. It looks very nice, too. The trunk is pretty spacious as well and this car can definitely be used for family trips. Great comfort, great drive, great car!

Kristopher D on August 23, 2020

The cornering headlights modules illuminate generally darks area when turning.

The vehicle is remarkable. I have had no reliability issues to speak of. The interior is whisper quiet, and solidly built. The engine and transmission work together seamlessly to provide more than ample around town and highway performance. The cooled and heated seats only take moments to get up to the desired temperature and bonus it takes regular fuel.

Kali G on August 9, 2020

A sleek car that saves on gas.

It is a sleek, quiet, and stylish option for those not looking for something huge, but not something too small either. The hybrid mode is built in and alternates between fully gas, battery and gas, and only battery. Saves money on gas and does not kill your electric bill either.

Kim W on August 9, 2020

Comfortable and reliable!

It was my first newer car and getting used to driving with a camera is nice but scary when you are driving a different car and cannot rely on it. I dislike how hard it is to get out of the car but that is the only complaint I have. The butt warmers work great, we love our car!

Stephanie L on August 7, 2020

Speed that you are going that appears in the driver's window as you are driving.

So far it performs nicely. !! It steers a bit tighter than the 2016 which takes some getting used to. The GPS system is also different and I still am not use to it. I have had to read manual several times but will go back to dealer for training on how to use new gadgets.

Yosef R on July 29, 2020

The perfect combo of classiness and sportiness.

Love the balance of class and sportiness - the technology is brilliant. The drive is silky smooth. Plenty of room. Genuinely my favorite care I have ever had - would highly suggest to anyone looking at leasing or buying a car of that caliber - especially the f sport.

Amy F on July 29, 2020

Affordable luxury that will save you money.

I have had my Lexus 300 es hybrid for about a year now, and I love it! I love that it saves me money on gas and the aesthetic of it is pretty nice too. Even though this car is a hybrid, it does not feel like one when you drive it. The heating and cooling of the seats comes in handy more often than not. All in all, I would definitely recommend this car to all my friends and family.

Sandy koo on July 27, 2020

Mary J on July 4, 2020

Beautiful, comfortable and fuel efficient.

I love my Lexus es! The exterior styling is distinctive. The panoramic roof is something I didn't think I would like but I love it. Interior design is beautiful, comfortable, and efficient. New safety feature provide a level of security. Ride is smooth and quiet. I am getting outstanding fuel efficiency. Overall I would recommend this vehicle.

Marilyn O on June 17, 2020

2019 Lexus ES 350 is an awesome luxury sedan

Sleek sporty look with comfortable heated/cooled seats. Smooth ride and computer that does just about everything. Nice sound system and driver assistance. Tinted windows help to keep interior cooler. Self closing trunk is convenient. Pre-start for air conditioning is a great feature on these hot summer days.

Marsha R on May 31, 2020

It is a smooth ride! The car design looks great.

Cindy T on May 5, 2020

The comfort in driving a Lexus.

I love the Lexus. Never had any problems and driving is a pleasure. We take short and long weekend drives in luxury. With many comforts such as seats to leg room and much more. We tried many other vehicles and nothing seems to beat the comfort in my Lexus. It is not cheap but really worth the value.

Michael B on February 15, 2020

The features of a Lexus es.

I really like the ability to cool your seat on a hot summer day. Here in AZ it will get up to 120 degrees. When selecting the cool option I am quickly cooled down. I also really like the assist features like beeping when your too close to something while driving or parking. Lastly I like the built in GPS system.

John Banks on January 23, 2020

Complete reliance on error codes to establish whether or not there is a problem and the lengths that Lexus Canada will go through to deny a problem exists and honour its warranties.

2019 es350 fsport. One problem came with the arrival of my vehicle. Blindspot monitor was malfunctioning. Because the dealer could not identify a computer Error code identifying the problem, Lexus denied there was a problem. It took about 5 months of creating videos showing the blind spot monitor malfunctioning before Lexus Canada agreed to replace the sensor. During this time Lexus Canada did not attempt at all to examine the monitor sensors to determine if they were working or not. The monitor has worked as it should since the sensor was replaced. Other than the fact that Lexus showed to me the trouble it would go through to deny a problem existed and therefore deny warranty coverage, the vehicle itself is great to drive.

Megan H on January 12, 2020

Too complex to be comfortable.

Doreen F on December 25, 2019

Great looking car with high tech features.

The car is a great color with a lot of high tech features. It is new so there haven't been any problems occur yet. I enjoy the feature that allows you to preset 2 seat configurations that the car will remember rather than having to adjust multiple seat components each time you change drivers.

Deepankar D on December 19, 2019

Reliability with luxury at its best.

It is a highly reliable car, I was looking of luxury car with reliability but not of the luxury cars impresses me with on reliability. Lexus is car with Toyota's reliability with top notch luxury. I feel quite safe driving my Lexus.. I love this car and would recommend everyone.

Tom Smith on October 20, 2019

Laura B on August 26, 2019

Comfortable and luxurious.

I love the vehicle. It has excellent acceleration. It is very comfortable, even on long drives. I love the automatic rain sensor for the windshield wipers. Although some do not like the lane sensor, I really like it. Only issue I have is with the touchpad for the console.

Skyler F on August 19, 2019

Great. I love this car so much.

No problems, great performance, extremely reliable, very comfortable, has a computer mouse, back camera, touch lights, two sunroofs, led headlights, eco mode, sport mode, seat heaters and coolers, v6 engine, push to start, touch to lock, I love this car so much.

Latrina T on August 12, 2019

Best car out I wouldn't expect anymore.

This car has no problems, very good engine, comfortable heating and cooling seats, led lights with heated steering wheel. It rides very smooth on the road feels like your floating, also a lot of horsepower. I enjoy it a lot. I would recommend it to all of my friends and family.

Ellen Williamson on May 16, 2019

Mckenzie J on May 10, 2019

You should buy it because you’ll live it just like I do.

It is very easy and nice to drive and I really love it! It has reclining seats, it is comfortable, and my kids love it! It also has heating seats for the winter time so when it gets cold the kids have a blanket and the sing and they can charge their phones and stuff with all the car charges!

Erick M on April 9, 2019

2019 Lexus es f sport great reliable car.

Great reliability car really comfortable and has great features like apple carplay and mark Levinson sound system. 305 horsepower makes this car ride smooth with f sport trim making it look sportier. 2019 model on the es has made this car really stand out for younger generation customers with the f sport trim.

Lynn C on March 28, 2019

I love my Lexus hybrid ES

MELISSA M on March 26, 2019

Lexus is by far the best vehicle.

Lexus is very reliable, quite, smooth drive and comfort ride ever. Features are great for my busy lifestyle. Remote start for those cold mornings. Direction assistant for those long trips. Great on gas. Customer service is awesome. They follow up every 2/3 months to get feedback.

Fred on March 5, 2019

Touch very dicicult to operate

Traded in my 2014 Es for this one. I,m a big Lexus/Toyota fan, however this touch pad is very difficult to operate. I feel that so far it’s causing a dangerous distraction. The interaction with Apple car play is inconsistent. Sometimes it’s hard to communicate with it by voice or touch pad. The 2014 joy stick was better but not by much.

Cole M on March 2, 2019

I like that my car has driving assist, it is helped me so much on road trips.

I haven't had any problems with my vehicle so far, it is really reliable. I go to college and it is 8 hours away, long road trips back and forth put a lot of ware on a car. But my car has held up its own and does not make me worry one bit. This is a nice family car and luxurious car for its price. They have 3 different driving modes that help out a lot in severe or different conditions.

Joyce C on January 14, 2019

Heaven in a vehicle along life's highway.

Grace H on November 3, 2018

Oil change inconveniences.

It need to change oil frequently which means that I have to go and visit the shop much more and spend more money on it. Sometimes the car will break down on the side of the road and stutter which I then have to get out and lift the hood to fix. This is sometimes a hassle if I am ever late for an event.

He brings a wealth of knowledge to Vehicle History as our Staff Writer and has written hundreds of used car reviews helping buyers make informed purchasing decisions. He is a member of the Automotive Press Association, and keeps up-to-date on the latest changes in the industry. Over the years, he has driven hundreds of cars, working on many of them. His mechanical experience evolved from modifying off-road trucks as a teen to focusing on automotive electrical systems as he got older. He now specializes in reviewing used cars as an automotive journalist. Some of his favorite brands are Toyota and BMW. The Toyota Land Cruiser is one of his favorite vehicles of all time since they’re built to last forever and can go anywhere. One of his current cars is a Lexus LX570, built on the same platform as the 200-series Land Cruiser, but it’s a better value in the used market.
