But the HS doesn't have folding rear seats so you'll need a second car if you want to take your skis/snowboards up to the mountains. I do agree though that an ESh lineup would work. It's not like people buy ESs for handling; that's what the IS is for.

In this price range and with the S-class profit margins, performance and hybrid efficiency can be achieved.
