2007 Lexus ES Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Horrible front seats! by george255
Member5496
Front seats on this car were the most uncomfortable i have ever experienced in 40+ yrs of driving. Traded it in after 4 mos. Legs, hips and back gave me constant pain - even for short distances. Others have apparently had the same problem - seems to be taller men are the most common.
Fuel economy
easily avg 24mpg all around - and on highway - observed 31 mpg. Still has a lot of guts too
Powertrain performance
decent acceleration
Cargo capacity
trunk good sized - and back seat as well
Front seat support & comfort
Had a ton of trouble with front seat comfort - had to trade it in after only 4 mos. Even my daughter's Sonata was more comfortable. Did everything i could to rectifiy - even had firmer cushions put into driver seat. Others have had the same issue.
Audio & nav systems
Base audio system is terrible!
Handling
Not a good handling car - granted it has a cushy ride - but i found that at highway speeds - did not perform well - actually had to brake in some turns. Not for a driving enthusiast
Interior storage compartments
very little storage space - glove compartment, console and door storage were definitely not enough
