Technology

The only issue I have with this car is the outdated tech. It did not come with car play. In addition, the cost to upgrade the GPS, is ridiculous. In all other areas, the car is outstanding.

Surprising Power For A Hybrid

Pros: The Avalon Limited is beautiful, outside and in. Gorgeous two-tone leather and wood on the inside, elegant trim on the outside. The car is no slouch on power, though it's a hybrid. Cons: Wish the glove box and center console compartment had more room. The car automatically pulls the seat back to enter and exit the car...problem is, I can barely reach the brake pedal, which must be pressed to turn the car on.

Comfy Ride

I like this car for the most part. It has a very quiet and comfortable ride and handles very smooth. The only downside is that the mileage is not what It was advertised. While it says 38-39 mpg it only is getting 34-35. Not a big difference but noticeable.

Expected better mileage.

This is my third Toyota Avalon. My first Hybrid, the gas mileage estimate says 39-40 mpg I average around 35 mpg. My non-hybrid averaged around 28 mpg. I gave up some horsepower for the fuel economy and I am not sure that I feel it is enough to warrant what I lost. I bought the Limited trim ( as was my last Avalon 2006, my first was the 1998 XLS, no limited then) I don't feel this Limited is as luxurious as my last.

3rd Avalon Hybrid

I just traded in my 2015 Toyota Avalon Hybrid for a new 2018 Toyota Avalon Hybrid. This gets great gas mileage avg 40 miles per gallon. I?ve gone 650 miles on one talk. This is a luxurious and comfortable ride for the money. Has all the safety features I wanted.
