Lexus ES 300h saloon (2019 - )

The Lexus ES is something a little different to the Audi, BMW and Mercedes models most executive car customers drive. It majors on comfort, quietness, quality and equipment, and it makes a very sound financial case for itself as well. It’s not the most enthralling car you’ll ever drive, and it could be a shade more practical, but it’s a very credible alternative to the established elite.

Area of interest:

This is where the ES really starts to make sense. Prices are significantly lower than those of its German competitors, and that’s before you factor in all the extra standard equipment you get, which further increases the value divide. Even better, the ES’s resale values are predicted to be very high indeed. That means you’ll either get a good proportion of your initial investment back come resale time or, if you buy on finance, it means monthly payments will be a good slice lower.

The ES makes even more sense, though, if you’re a company car driver. The efficient hybrid drivetrain gives it a lower official CO2 output than most of its diesel-powered rivals, giving it lower company car tax bandings, and there’s no diesel surcharge to pay, either. Unfortunately for Lexus, though, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, BMW 5 Series and Audi A6 are all available as plug-in hybrids, which cost more upfront but could save those company car drivers hundreds each month in Benefit In Kind savings.
