Toyota's flagship Avalon is roomy, rides comfortably, and has easy-to-use controls, which makes it a pleasant large car. The 3.5-liter V6 engine gained 33 hp and is linked to an eight-speed automatic transmission. The hybrid version has a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that returned 42 mpg overall in our tests, which is impressive for such a large sedan. Ride comfort is excellent; it is plusher than most Lexus models. The cabin is quiet and lavishly furnished, particularly with the Limited trim. Handling is responsive and secure, but the car's low stance hurts ease of access. The infotainment system includes a 9-inch touch screen that is easy to use. The 2019 redesigned Avalon is the first Toyota to offer Apple CarPlay. Standard safety equipment includes forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking.New for 2020 is a V6 TRD version. And all 2020 models come standard with a fuel-saving start/stop system that automatically shuts off the engine when stopped, like at a traffic light. All-wheel drive is available for the 2021 models. Other updates for 2021 include standard Android Auto compatibility.2022 is the last year for Toyota's biggest sedan.
