Very technologically advanced car

Has everything you can possibly need, loaded. Can not hear it when started and runs very smooth on the city and highway. Really is an incredibly sporty feel yet it seats five comfortably

Best out there

Purchased this car after test driving many cars. It has luxury and style along with excellence in technology. The hybrid feature economical and easy to use... Don't need to plug it in. The car charges the battery while you drive the car.

Great Cruiser

Great rear seat legroom, comfortable seats, easy to maneuver, very comfortable ride, and very good gas mileage. You're not buying this car to go fast.

Great mix of comfort, safety and economy.

Avalon suits my needs perfectly. Ultra comfort and style. Great value. Newly retired; it will be a joy to travel in this car.

HYBRID : 35 mpg avg city mileage so far

Bought it new 6 weeks ago and now have 500 miles on it. It is roomy, comfortable, and oh so quiet. A giant step up from our old 2003 Camry. The only disappointment is that the Hybrid battery eats up too much trunk space. All of the Toyota Safety Sense safety features are standard which is a great plus. I love the car and recommend it highly. I really cant rate the reliability since it is so new, but the 2003 Camry I traded had 135K miles with no major issues.

Love the gas mileage

This 2018 is identical to the past several years of Avalons. they should have perfected it by now. Gas mileage for a full size luxury car is fabulous. 40mpg. This is the second Avalon Limited Hybrid I've owned. Same complaint about both... the black dash will heat up the interior to 160 degrees in the sun. While traveling, you cannot put your hand on the dash because it gets so hot. It cannot be good for the components. Also, I would like to see more compartments for storage.. such as the back seat console which only has a cup holder. Cup holders in the doors would be nice too. The car is super quiet, super comfortable but the style is so similar to other manufactures one cannot tell the difference between makes of cars except for the emblem on the front and back. I am a female buyer and I am the only driver. More "lady stuff" please such as a place to put my purse. The navigation screen is distracting because one has to look at the screen to push "cancel" for emails, etc.
