Lexus Confirms All-Electric ES Launch in 2025, Expanding EV Lineup

Saudi Arabia : Lexus has announced its first fully electric ES sedan, set to launch in 2025, with more EV models to follow, including a large SUV and a new electric coupe by 2027.

• Lexus will introduce an all-electric ES sedan in 2025.
• A large electric SUV, possibly named TZ, is expected by mid-2026.
• A new electric coupe, likely a successor to the RC or LC, is set for 2027.
• Lexus remains committed to becoming an all-electric brand by 2035.

Lexus Expands Its EV Roadmap

Lexus is pushing forward with its electrification strategy, confirming that its first all-electric ES sedan will debut in 2025. This move comes as part of the brand’s broader vision to transition toward a fully electric lineup by 2035, targeting key markets like China and beyond.

Following the ES EV, Lexus plans to introduce a large electric SUV in mid-2026, potentially named the TZ, followed by another electric SUV in 2027. In addition, an electric coupe is expected in mid-2027, which could replace the RC and LC models.

Trademarks and Technical Updates

Lexus recently registered the ES 350e and ES 500e names, suggesting that these could be the official names for the all-electric ES variants. Reports indicate that the electric ES models will feature distinctive design and technology updates, setting them apart from the traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) ES models.

Toyota, Lexus’ parent company, has also announced the construction of a new Lexus factory in Shanghai, China. This facility is expected to focus on producing Lexus EVs for the Chinese market, with potential exports to other global markets.

Lexus’ Global Electric Strategy

Lexus’ plan to go fully electric by 2035 remains unchanged, but its implementation may vary by region. Given the growing demand for EVs in China, the brand could prioritize electrification in key markets while continuing to sell hybrid and ICE models in regions with slower EV adoption.

What to Expect from Lexus’ EV Future?

Lexus’ upcoming EV lineup is set to bring:

• Enhanced range and performance, catering to modern EV buyers.
• Luxury-focused interiors, maintaining Lexus’ signature comfort.
• Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) for safety and convenience.
• Next-gen battery technology, improving efficiency and longevity.

Lexus is accelerating its EV transition, starting with the all-electric ES in 2025 and expanding into SUVs and coupes over the next few years. With a dedicated EV factory in China and a firm goal for 2035, the brand is making bold moves in the luxury electric vehicle space. 

As more details emerge, the future of Lexus’ EV lineup promises innovation, performance, and sustainability for the global market, including KSA.
