Who it suits. Drivers seeking a 292-mile electric midsize car Owners with access to 240-volt charging Buyers comparing EV efficiency and running cost
For buyers who cover mixed daily routes and can charge at home or another 240-volt point, this ES offers a clear 292-mile EPA target and a $600 annual energy estimate. Front-wheel drive and midsize-car packaging keep the description straightforward. The eight-hour 240-volt charge time requires planning for overnight charging. Its 121 combined MPGe and 27.52 kWh/100 miles make efficiency easy to compare, while the 21-inch-wheel version remains limited to the figures listed here.
What it is
The 2026 Lexus ES 350e (21 inch Wheels) is a midsize electric car with front-wheel drive. It uses a 167 kW AC synchronous motor and an automatic A1 transmission.
Its defining figure is a 292-mile EPA range. That is the rated distance on a full charge before you need to plug in again.
The numbers
The ES 350e returns 121 combined MPGe. MPGe puts electric energy on the same scale as gasoline mileage, so this is the number to use for an overall efficiency comparison.
It uses 27.52 kWh per 100 miles. The 292-mile range describes distance, while the kWh figure describes the electricity needed to cover 100 miles.
What it costs to run
The EPA annual electricity estimate is $600. Your actual bill will depend on how much you drive and the electricity rate where you charge.
A 240-volt charge takes 8 hours. That timing fits an overnight charging routine when a 240-volt connection is available.
How it compares
Use the combined 121 MPGe figure when comparing this Lexus with other electric cars in the electric efficiency list.
Its 292-mile EPA range is the number to place beside other models in the electric range list.
Who it suits
This ES suits drivers who want a midsize electric car with a 292-mile rated range and front-wheel drive.
It also fits drivers who can plan around an 8-hour charge at 240 volts and want an annual electricity estimate of $600.
Trade-offs
The 8-hour 240-volt charge time means charging is a planned stop rather than a quick top-up in the figures provided.
Front-wheel drive defines the drivetrain, and the 21-inch-wheel version carries a 292-mile EPA range. The listed energy use is 27.52 kWh per 100 miles.
Verdict
For buyers who cover regular routes and can charge from a 240-volt connection, this Lexus presents a clear 292-mile target between charges. Its 121 combined MPGe and $600 yearly electricity estimate make running costs easy to frame. The midsize body and front-wheel-drive layout keep the choice focused on everyday electric travel. Plan for an eight-hour charge, and use the range and efficiency figures to judge whether this version matches your driving pattern.
