2023 ES should have the wireless android auto and wireless apple CarPlay.
It mentions it in the brochure.

We traded our ES350 on Sunday for a GX460, mainly because my wife feels safer in the GX. The ES was a beautiful car, but the GX will be more functional as our last vehicle when I eventually downsize and sell my Tundra. I also didn't want to miss the last chance for the current generation GX. It's been around more than 12 years, and it's one of the most reliable vehicles on the market. I'll still pop in on the ES forum occasionally. Enjoy the ES.

Traded in my 2015 is300h for a 2019 es300h. Picking it up tomorrow


It’s only gone 35000kms. Deep Blue. Sadly it’s just the base model with some extras (navigation, leather seats), but on the other side it’s only had one owner who’s taken care of the care really well.

Started my Lexus career back in 2010 with a GS300 (2007). Kept it until 2020 when I traded it for a 2015 is300h, and now it was time to upsize again

Sadly not. Base is the entry model (in Sweden called "Comfort"). It still has a lot of good stuff, but I'll be missing the Mark Levinson Stereo. But the former owner did add a few extra upgrades at least (reverse camera, navigation, leather seats etc). I prioritised finding a low-mileage car, and this one with only 35000 kilometers & perfect/mint condition did it for me

Default Finally Succeeded

Got my ES 300h two weeks ago, but today was the first day I was able to really drive it, as we've had a lot of rain in CA. Been working on getting one for about five months and am now enjoying the fruits of my labor. Trim: Luxury (essentially an Ultra Lux without rear seat sun shades) ; White with black interior. Triple beam headlights and ML audio.

Great engine, great car, you’re going to love it unless you’re coming from something twice the price.

Wife has a 23 IS350 F Sport and I have a 23 ES300h Premium we love them both and have zero desire to buy anything other than Toyota after decades of other brands.

From my vantage point, a rare acorn sighting. Always liked pictures of that color scheme, but haven't seen one in person.
