(April 10, 2015) Lexus has released a teaser photo of its "new" ES luxury sedan which will make its global debut at the Shanghai Auto Show on April 20. In actuality it's more than likely a highly refreshened version of the current generation ES, which was introduced for the 2013 model year.

The teaser photo shows a more pronounced version of the new Lexus spindle grille and newly designed headlights, which may portend some serious exterior styling tweaks not normally found in a mid-cycle update, much like it did with the 2015 Camry.

The Lexus ES established a unique and important position in the luxury sedan segment with its elegant styling, extraordinary quality, and Lexus' best-in-class service when it was introduced in 1989. More than 1.7 million units have been sold globally over the past 25 years.

Lexus says "the new Lexus ES maintains its classical elegance while conveying a more dynamic experience and luxurious craftsmanship."
