2026 8th Generation Lexus ES

Can the driver's hands actually stretch that far to reach the screen on the extreme right? 😁 

Even if that's for front passenger to watch movie, might as well put the screens behind the front seats for the back passengers to enjoy better, than to clutter the dashboard with so many screens. Quite distracting at night also even with night-mode turned on.

Whose hands are so short ? 

I can open the doors from driver side or help a chio woman pull down a seat belt with ease. haha.

many new cars all have big screen trend. 

Look at AMG E53, also big screen just much nicer design.

The new ES is huge, almost the same dimensions as the flagship LS.

• Length: 5,140 mm (+165 mm)
• Width: 1,920 mm (+55 mm)
• Height: 1,555 mm (+110 mm)
• Wheelbase: 2,950 mm (+80 mm)

While it's interior appears luxurious and spacious, the dash look quite like most other Chinese EVs. The 2 x 14" laptop size screen is just out of place to me. Audi and Mercedes integrated screens on the dash look much better, although I still struggle to understand the needs for so many screens at the front.

EV variant 

Hybrid varint

 

Most Toyota model design getting from bad to  worst for the past few years.  Look like Lexus follow now. 

Really lost it own character.

Anyone knows how much is the new ES350e full electric at Cars@EXPO now? I think they have it on display.

Cannot lah, wan fight the big 3 need some consistent design language. Move from OG LS400 ahbpek to Spindle grill then change again to Chibese EV/bZ4x look... 

This is not the way.
