It IS...the most reliable car I've ever owned

Sporty enough for teenagers & classy enough for retirees. Very roomy, comfortable, & enough leg room to seat anyone 6 feet tall & above. It handles well with the power & "get up & go" of any sports car. Yet, it has a smooth ride wherein you don't feel every bump in the road. I'm well satisfied with my Avalon.

A Higher End Simple Choice

The Avalon is considered the flagship mode of Toyota, however it has a very conservative design (for this year range) that does not turn heads or entices people. What it lacks in its looks it makes up for in the balance of other desires being met. The performance is good, the ride is comfortable and smooth, the cabin it quiet, safety system, and the features are plenty. The only complaint I have is lack of 100% LED Bulbs, the weird offloaded Car applications through your phone, and the lack of some luxury features being standard on it. Keep in mind. There are countless places where this Avalon is projected to be one of the longest lasting and most reliable cars of all time. I would defiantly consider that as you purchase.

Great Car

Smooth ride, great gas mileage and very dependable! I drive this car daily over 50 miles of interstate driving to and from work. I am very pleased with the car's performance and body style.

A BMW 7 series convert

Having owned or lease 7 BMW 7 series, two were V12 750s, 4 Infiniti's and 1 Audi A6 since 1985, I feel qualified to say that my 2017 Avalon Ltd. is the best of the bunch, considering styling, comfort, and most important to me, performance. On a HP to weight ratio, it beats my last 1999 BMW 750. My only nit picking complaint is the door side compartments are rigid, and will not accept a water bottle, while most other cars I have had this lower door pocket has some flexibility.

Nice interior comfortable ride

Wish I had bought the Camry instead. Beautiful leather interior, comfortable ride. Not very good on gas. Wish I could trade it back for a Camry...ride was just as great...but, the gas mileage was so, much more economical..the front grill on the Camry is happy...Avalon looks like it's growling at everyone...miss my Camry 2007 it was totalled by a deer in Georgia. Bought 2016 Avalon to replace it because it was the only choice on the lot with leather interior....

safety, power, quiet, EZ to drive has it all

This, our third AVALON. We want comfort with drivability. We rented several other makes and models; it took us several months of trial before we selected our first used Avalon 2000; second Avalon 2008 and now 2017. Each Avalon we purchased bought improvements and Avalon drove better than all other imports and/or domestics that we rented for a few days. And, a plus is good dealer service. COST? You get what you pay for; check out "BUYERS GUIDE" and compare.

best kept secret amongst luxury cars

Avalon is better than most luxury cars, the Cadillac or the Audi or the Lincoln. Comfort, technology, gas consumption all better.

So far so good

This car has a smooth ride, has all the bells and whistles. Good gas mileage, it's the Cadillac of Toyota but not pricey like a Cadillac! Mine is the Avalon Limited.
