Awesome video as always. I really enjoyed the new route/road at 15:16 min mark where I can acoustically hear what the car is doing and how the chassis and suspension handle a rough road. Sounds like the ES250 is quiet except for the loud engine. Thanks.
@@MilesPerHr Definitely try your best finding these kinds of rough roads, maybe even better rough freeway roads. It really puts the car's ride quality, cabin noise, and comfort to the test. I love using your videos to compare the cabin noise of luxury cars and normal economy cars (i.e., Toyota Corolla) to laugh at the difference.
Wow! My 2021 Camry SE FWD has the same engine and transmission so this is super interesting seeing how the transmission is behaving on this model, being AWD and a larger luxury car. It holds higher RPMs longer and delays shifting into higher gears longer than on my car. It also shifts a little quicker. I can see a difference in it being a little more refined. Very cool!
You made a typo in the powertrain in thr description section of the video. It’s not a turbocharged 4 cylinder. This has the same 2.5L I4 as the camry and rav4
Why they didn’t just make the hybrid ES eAWD is absolutely beyond me. An NA 4 cylinder alone just doesn’t cut it in the luxury segment anymore. 🤦🏼♂️ Go ask Acura how that went with the previous generation TLX.
@@SdoubleA Nah, BMWs B series engines are solid. You wouldn’t know that since you didn’t do the research that they were tested by Toyota themselves, so they could be put in the Supra. 🤭
You buy this car for a quiet cushy ride, not to 0-100km in 5 secs..... some people assume everyone wants a huge engine, when im stuck in a bumper to bumper traffic, all i care about is comfiness
