6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 Approximately 30 mpg highway and good mileage around town, too. Even with the premium fuel requirement the ES is still not very expensive to keep fueled. see full Lexus ES review

2008 4dr Sedan 272-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 With the high price of gasoline, any six-cylinder vehicle can be considered more than necessary for a daily commute. Still, averages of 22.5 MPG are not too bad. see full Lexus ES review
