TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2019 Jaguar XF mid-size luxury sedan is even better as a wagon; a well-earned break from the crossover craze.

The 2019 Lexus ES deletes “sedate” from its vocabulary.

TCC Likes

Handsome shape
Stout V-6
Competent all-wheel-drive system

Best-looking ES ever?
ES350 F Sport’s crisp responses
Apple CarPlay, finally!

TCC Dislikes

Lacks the performance of some rivals
No standard automatic emergency braking
Interior is too dark

No all-wheel drive
Complicated infotainment
A sedan in a crossover-crazy world
