The ES sedan gets a few subtle changes in styling including the revised headlamps
Visually, the most obvious changes on the latest ES are the revised headlamp clusters that now house new lighting signatures, the restyled front bumper, and the updated grille with different patterning. The rear of the ES now gets a new connected taillamp setup. On the inside, the vehicle gets a larger 14-inch touchscreen infotainment system. The touchscreen system also accommodates the controls for the climate control system, effectively reducing the number of buttons on the centre console. The list of features offered on the updated ES include electrically adjustable driver and passenger seats, ventilated front seats, ambient lighting, and 10 airbags.
