Where Lexus is thriving is in the midsize luxury cruiser sector. The ES350 and ES300h are certainly not sports sedans, but they are popular, wildly more popular this fall than the ES was at this time last year. The ES ranked tenth among premium brand vehicles in September 2011 but moved up to fourth last month. In August, the ES outsold the C-Class and 3-Series.
The introduction of the ES300h has helped; approximately 21% of all ES sales in September were hybrids. Whether we're discussing the ES300h or the regular ES350, the level of popularity achieved by the front-wheel-drive Lexus says something about the desire many buyers have to avoid Nürburgring-developed track stars.
