The Lexus ES allows much more flexibility when guests want to add options and packages. For instance, should a guest want a Surround View Camera, they only need to add one option. On the Cadillac, to add the same option a Guest would have to select the Parking Package ($2,090) but that requires also purchasing the Premium Luxury trim ($4,290), Lighting Package ($600), Driver Awareness Plus Package ($1,300) and Navigation and Bose Premium Audio Package ($1,350). This makes choosing a simple feature a potentially expensive proposition.

The ES 250 AWD comes with Lexus Safety System+ 2.01 as standard equipment, including All-Speed Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC), Lane Tracing Assist (LTA), Road Sign Assist (RSA) and more. Cadillac offers some similar systems but only when bundled with extra-cost option packages.

Rear seat passengers enjoy a spacious rear seating area with 1.3 inches of more legroom and 1.2 inches of additional headroom in the Lexus ES. In addition, the larger trunk of the ES accommodates more luggage than the Cadillac CT5.

Audiophiles will appreciate the remarkable sound quality of the available Mark Levinson® 17-Speaker, 12-channel, 1,800-watt PurePlay Premium Surround Sound System in the ES over the available 15-speaker Bose® sound system in the Cadillac CT5.

The first-ever ES 250 AWD balances power and efficiency in a variety of weather conditions, and continues to feature its unparalleled comfort, refinement and luxury appointments it’s long been known for. Every element of the cutting-edge ES is crafted around you, making it the perfect choice for your new luxury sedan.
