INDIANAPOLIS — Unlike some of you, I love my mother-in-law, and when she came to me about her next new car, I was in for the chase. She wanted a car of the highest quality, durability, and comfort, but it also had to be easy to drive. Fuel economy was important as was safety. She has two young grandchildren. All-weather capability would also be good since she was planning long drives to see said grandchildren.

(November 13, 2022) In an automotive related discussion with a friend the subject of her 2018 Lexus NX 300 came up. We asked if she is shopping a new Lexus and has she considered the restyled 2022 NX? "I don't see any need for a change now, my Lexus has all the stuff I want," she said. "But, we replied, the new NX has updated styling and a load of new tech compared to your nearly five-year-old car."

(October 9, 2022) Neighbors down the street asked to sit in our 2022 Lexus ES 300h press vehicle after doing a slow walk-around. They have been Toyota Avalon owners for the past decade, but knowing that Toyota is discontinuing the sedan, they were looking for a suitable replacement within the Toyota family. From the sound of their conversation it seems the Lexus ES is their first — if not their only — choice.

HERNDON, Va. — These are, as you’d know and anyone can tell you, anxious times. Whether your anxiety is political or economic, over here or over there, our shared angst can be pervasive to the point of suffocation. And at a moment when people still lose jobs, go to bed hungry and die — by the thousands — of Covid, the Lexus LC 500, especially as a convertible, might seem little more than an irrelevant and expensive bauble.

(July 24, 2022) The all-new 2022 Lexus LX 600 enters the marketplace as a big and luxurious three-row vehicle for those who value a soft ride, ultra-quiet interior, most of the safety and convenience technology available — and the ability to go far off road.

(November 21, 2021) The Lexus RX 350 continues to be the luxury segment's hottest selling crossover SUV perhaps because of its relaxed and comfortable characteristics — attributes luxury customers demand —and its ability to get from point A to point B without drama in a hushed interior environment loaded with much of the modern technology offered by automotive manufactures these days.

(November 14, 2021) We have never given the mid-sized Lexus ES sedan much of a thought in terms of a purchase.

Our likability quotient has changed just a bit after a week behind the wheel of a 2021 ES 350 F Sport.
