After a mild refresh added new styling cues for 2010, not too much changes for 2011. The 3.5-liter V-6 returns, now with six fewer horsepower (now 268) and six fewer pound-feet of torque (now 248). However, Lexus has changed the recommended fuel from premium to regular. The other changes: leather interior trim is now standard, and Deep Sea Mica replaces Black Sapphire Pearl.
Lexus estimates that the 2011 ES will scoot from 0-to-60 in roughly 7.0 seconds, a couple of ticks slower than the 2010 model. Other than that, the ES line isn't designed to be a canyon-carver; this is more about a luxury car that provides a smooth ride, and it does. Suspension is soft and compliant.
