Our Take on the 1993 Lexus ES300 Base

Standard equipment in the ES300 for 1992 and 1993 includes the 3.0 liter engine by Toyota, weighing in at 6 cylinders and twenty four valves. A 5-speed Standard Transaxle puts the power of the engine to the pavement. This is a long-standing favorite for buyers in the Sedan arena.

The ES300 uses power-assisted brakes, with 4-Wheel ABS support. The front brakes are disc while the rear brakes are disc. Steering is handled through a power-steering rack-style configuration. The car uses coil and coil springs front and rear respectively.

Vehicle Statistics

The ES300 is 187.80 inches long, 70.10 inches wide, and 53.90 inches high. It has a wheelbase of 103.10 inches. It is able to seat 5 comfortably.

There is a 50,000* mile, 60* month warranty with this vehicle, including a powertrain warranty of 50,000*/36* miles/months. This is normal for this price range.

The listed retail price in 1993 (MSRP) was $27,900, with a dealer invoice cost of an industry-average price. This price is on target the industry average price for a four-door Sedan.

Fuel Efficiency

The fuel system for the 1993 ES300 is a traditional SFI, running on gasoline fuel. The fuel is controlled by an electronic system and is a fuel-injected MFI design. The capacity of the fuel tank is 18.50 gallons.

The 1993 ES300 gets 23 - 24 miles/gallon on the highway and only 18 in the city. This is subpar for a sedan car.

We Think...

The 1992 model began the promise of the Lexus ES300. The 1993 expanded on this success and has proven to be a strong seller in most markets. Even with strong competition from other manufacturers Lexus hopes that the ES300 Base will continue to be a profitable vehicle.
