Then we can look at the most likely first - brakes.

Hopefully these were inspected but it wouldn't hurt to be sure. Since you have the alloy wheels, it would be easy to see the brake lining (pads) yourself without necessarily taking off your wheel. Would you say the noise changes when you tap your brake pedal?
Aside from the brakes, there is the wheel bearing and the constant velocity (CV) joints on the drive shaft. We have a report of a wheel bearing problem, I think Alex16 had this. If I remember correctly, the wheel was difficult to turn when off the ground. I doubt the CV joint is bad, as it would be the first report that I am aware of.
By the way, how many kilometers are on your 2015 ES now, and how would you describe those miles - mostly highway, or lots of stop and go?
