What the all-new 2013 Toyota Avalon loses in cushiness of ride, it makes up for in cushiness of interior. Cars.com reviewer Joe Bruzek calls the Avalon a “luxury car without the luxury-car price,” and it might just be the closest you’ll come to the interior quality of a Lexus ES in an under-$35,000 midsize sedan. Even the multimedia system’s capacitive controls, rarely a bright spot, are tolerable.
