Touchscreen availability by era
Overview of when a touchscreen first appeared and how it is configured across ES 350 trims.
Pre-2019 ES 350
- Pre-2019 ES 350 models generally used a non-touchscreen interface, controlled via the Lexus Remote Touch trackpad and physical controls. The display existed for information but could not be tapped directly.
The pre-2019 era is defined by a non-touch interface; buyers should expect a control pad rather than a direct finger-responsive screen.
2019 model year redesign and later
From the 2019 redesign, Lexus introduced a touchscreen infotainment system with screen size and feature packages that vary by trim.
- 8-inch touchscreen Display Audio is standard on the base ES 350.
- 12.3-inch touchscreen with navigation is available on higher trims and with the navigation package.
- Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are supported on most recent ES 350 models.
If you want a larger touchscreen or built-in navigation, check the trim and options for the 12.3-inch display.
Summary
Overall, the Lexus ES 350 offers a touchscreen interface in the modern era (2019 onward). Older ES 350 models used a non-touch input system. When shopping, look for model year 2019 or newer and verify the screen size on the trim to ensure the features you want are present. In the current lineup, 8-inch is standard on base models, with 12.3-inch navigation displays available on higher trims, and smartphone integration (CarPlay/Android Auto) widely supported.
