Lexus ES
This sedan is the redheaded stepchild of the Lexus family. Some simply consider it a revamped Camry, while others snub it as an overrated economy car. However, beyond all that, this Lexus possesses all of the brand’s best qualities – impeccable finish, a sophisticated dashboard and a refined suspension – all at a truly competitive price. And you shouldn’t disregard the 3.5-litre V6 engine either, which is as smooth as it is fuel efficient.
