5 reasons to buy the 2015 Lexus ES 350
1. Select your engine mode
The 2015 Lexus ES 350 is equipped with a 3.5L V6 engine. The car also provides Drive Mode Select, which means you can choose the mode that suits your mood or the conditions.

It’s easy to keep your vehicle between the lanes with the lane departure alert system that’s an available option in the 2015 Lexus ES 350. That alert system is integrated with automatic dimming technology for high-beam headlights. There’s also an available pre-collision system that uses sub-millimeter wave radar to detect potential obstructions in your path.
4. Feel at home in your car
Seats this soft and plush are typically reserved for living room furniture. Driving in the 2015 Lexus ES 350 is as comfortable as lounging in your favorite recliner. With a power driver’s seat, it’s easy to adjust to exactly the right position for your personal comfort. Slide your coffee, tea, or soda in the generously sized cup holder and settle in — you’ll feel right at home as you drive.
5. Great for passengers
The 2015 Lexus ES 350 is comfy and spacious for riders in both the front and rear seats. There’s 40 inches of legroom in the back and 41.9 inches in the front, and the seats are soft, plush, and relaxing. And because this car offers such a quiet ride, it’s easy to converse with backseat passengers while cruising down the road.
