Could debut at the Beijing Motor Show

The 2013 Lexus ES has been caught undisguised, ahead of a possible unveiling at the Beijing Motor Show.

Posted by a member of the xCar forum, the pictures reveal the model will adopt a new front bumper, a spindle grille and LED-infused headlights.

Inside, the cabin is completely redesigned with a new dashboard and center console. There's also an analog clock, updated controls and higher quality materials.

Engine options will likely include a 2.5-liter V6 with 206 hp (154 kW / 209 PS) and 253 Nm (187 lb-ft) of torque as well as a 3.5-liter V6 with 306 hp (228 kW / 310 PS) and 375 Nm (277 lb-ft) of torque.

I have made alot of rude comments on the latest Toyexus's to be released. But my efforts have officially been exhausted. You guys have finally won... I can't think of good insults faster than you guys can make horrible looking vehicles... I almost forgot to mention that you've completely compromised your design and integrity to copy the interior of the Germans!?! Lousy Toyexus, just lousy... SMH!

You must like the ugly angular eggrate Cadillac or the new moustache designed-themed Lincoln, the scourge of the luxury bastion!

it looks almost exactly to the New GS however, i'm glad to see they are trying hard, it looks a million times better than the current generation ES.

Exactly what we need... A luxury line up where EVERY car will look the same... From the looks of this ES, all you would have to do is black out the grill and have a GS! Boring, Lexus!! Please intrigue me!

Why, if the car's so boring to you people, do you always click on the link to it? Seriously, it seems the "mind-numbingly boring articles" on Toyota, Lexus, and Scion on car forums have the most comments. I, for one, think it looks pretty nice.

Nice. The best looking ES yet. And they have done away with the tombstone-like center stack from the outgoing car. :p
