23 mpg

Overall

This enjoyable, roomy sedan benefits from Toyota's stellar build quality.

Dynamics

Quite fast and also fuel efficient for its size, the Avalon handles and steers conservatively.

Comfort

Lexus-like levels of ride refienment, isolation and quiet at a Toyota price.

Function

Plenty of storage and rear seat space, but many of the important controls are either unnecessarily complicated or hidden behind gimmicky panels.

Design/Build Quality

Class-leading build quality and fit and finish accompanies improved styling.

Family Friendly Plenty of room for a family of five.

Comfortable Even adults can stretch their legs in the rear seat.
