I've been driving the Lexus ES 350 for over two years now, and I find its 0-100 km/h acceleration quite brisk, completing it in about 7.5 seconds. The initial push-back feeling is noticeable, making city driving or highway overtaking effortless. However, this car isn't purely about speed. The V6 engine offers smooth performance, with minimal cabin noise during acceleration, and the seats provide good support, making long drives comfortable. Various factors like vehicle weight, road conditions, or engine tuning can slightly affect acceleration by half a second or so. A reminder: regular maintenance to ensure proper tire pressure and oil condition can make the acceleration response more agile. Overall, the ES strikes a good balance as a family car with adequate performance, occasionally satisfying spirited driving. Its safety and comfort are plus points, though it naturally falls short compared to sports cars, but it's more than sufficient for daily commutes.
