Offering just a little more front head- and legroom than the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the Lexus ES 350 may be a little roomier and more comfortable for the driver and front seat passengers.
Convenience
With the Mercedes-Benz C-Class you will definitely be making less frequent stops at the gas station than with the Lexus ES 350, due to its tank size and fuel economy.
