If you’re the type of San Gabriel driver who likes a blend of luxury, comfort, and performance in the form of a sedan for added space, there are two vehicles that should have already captured your attention. The 2023 BMW 5 Series vs. Lexus ES are two models near the top of the luxury sedan category. But if you were looking for an easy decision, unfortunately, both are incredibly similar. However, we believe that the 2023 BMW 5 Series has the edge thanks to its performance advantage and a few other superlatives that help it edge this Lexus model. If you’re like other Arcadia drivers looking for a luxury sedan, make sure you read this BMW vs. Lexus comparison until the end.
Keep in mind when reading that this is a comparison between the two base models of vehicles. If you’re interested in upgrades, the BMW 5 Series and Lexus ES have higher trim levels, which we’ll touch on near the end.
At first glance, one would assume that the Lexus ES edges the BMW 5 Series in performance. This is because the Le s ES has a slightly bigger motor – but this doesn’t always equate to superior performance. While the Lexus ES has an impressive 203 HP and 184 lb-ft of torque, the BMW 530i outclasses its competition, checking in with 248 HP and 258 lb-ft of torque. This is quite a difference, especially when you’re behind the wheel, and made possible by the superior TwinTurbo BMW engine. Additional performance specs are included below:

This is where the BMW 5 Series vs. Lexus ES really begin to show their differences. While the Lexus ES delivers plenty of comforts, as per usual from a Lexus vehicle, the BMW 5 Series is way ahead of the Lexus ES in terms of interior comfort and technology. Some of the top features of the BMW 5 Series include:
While the Lexus wireless Apple CarPlay integration, Wireless Android Auto compatibility, and WiFi, along with several safety features, come with the Lexus ES, the high-tech package that comes with the BMW 5 Series outshines its Lexus counterpart.
Both have additional models available, with the BMW topping the Lexus ES by one trim level. If you’re into options, you’ll have a slightly higher number of them with the BMW 5 Series.
