With stable quality and low fuel consumption, what is the reason why the second-hand Lexus ES is so popular but not so popular?

The protagonist of this article is a car owned by my friend, a second-hand Japanese luxury car with a very good reputation. It is the Lexus ES300h that was launched in 2015, but recently my friend has been troubled by this car. , because he has been selling this car for a long time, and it has never been sold. Everyone said it is good, but no one wants it. It is popular but not popular. Haha, what is this car like? What is the reason why it is popular but not popular? ? Let’s analyze it:

The length, width and height dimensions of the car are: 4900mm, 1820mm, 1450mm, and the wheelbase is 2820mm (there are slight differences between versions).

In terms of appearance, the design of this car is actually a bit old-fashioned now, especially compared with the new ES model, the aura and fashion sense are much different, and it is more mature and stable.

In addition to the body size, the front face has the biggest difference. For example, the center grille headlights and the feeling of surround are more moderate.

The interior design of the car, even now, feels very delicate, especially the stitching on the center console, as well as the design of the clock and steering wheel, but, but, but, three buts, The configuration of this car is really too low. The guide price back then was nearly 400,000 yuan. Compared with the current car with more than 100,000 yuan, the configuration level has no advantage.

The seats are made of genuine leather. The leather is very high-grade and has more than 120,000 miles. There are no obvious wrinkles on the seats, and the comfort level is high enough. It also has perforation technology, which is very delicate. , in the article, because it is a low-end model, the configuration is average. In terms of seating space, to be honest, it is not as big as the extended A6L and 5 Series of the same age.

The hybrid version has a trunk volume of 425 liters, and the spare tire has not even touched the ground.

In terms of power, the hybrid version of the Lexus ES300h model uses a 2AR series 2.5L naturally aspirated engine with a maximum horsepower of 160 horsepower and a maximum torque of 213 Nm. The parameters look average. It is weaker than some current small-displacement turbine engines, but don’t forget that this car also has a 1.05 million, 270 Nm electric motor. The nickel-metal hydride battery used is theoretically attenuated compared to lithium batteries. Slower. The battery pack has an official 10-year and 250,000-kilometer warranty. It is paired with an E-CVT gearbox. Even though the vehicle weight is over 1.6 tons, the 0-100 acceleration time is over 8 seconds, which is still satisfactory and more interesting. Yes, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology fuel consumption of this car is only 5.4 liters per 100 kilometers, and the actual test results are similar, which is amazing.

When you drive this car every day, you will be a little surprised when you drive it for the first time. When you press the start button, there is no sound feedback, but when you step on the accelerator, the tachometer does not move and the body can start to move again. It is interesting and Because of the output of the electric motor, the power of this car is very fast, and the overall output is very smooth and powerful. This kind of power output quality can be called high-end, that is, the acceleration feeling after running at high speed is not as good as the front and middle section. So powerful.

In terms of chassis, this car uses front MacPherson and rear independent double-link MacPherson strut independent suspension with lateral stabilizer bars. This generation of ES models has been called by many netizens It is a premium version of the Camry, especially after seeing the dual-link design, but in actual driving experience, compared to the Camry, the chassis tuning of this car obviously has a better control experience, and the calm feeling also makes it more textured. , coupled with the powertrain and better sealing effect, NVH control is also better and more advanced.

Finally, this car has a solid appearance, exquisite interior workmanship, decent space, ample power, and low fuel consumption. Lexus has a stable and excellent reputation for quality and stability in the later period. The chassis is balanced and there are no major problems. , until I know the price of this car, the condition of the car is normal, and the market price is more than 250,000, because the closing price of Lexus models will not be low. At this price, you can buy the A6L and 5 Series that are more recent. The car's sense of class, face, and even configuration are better than it. This is probably the reason why this car is not popular.

What do you think are the reasons why this car is so popular but not popular?
