Purchased this car about three weeks ago and have 1000ish miles on it. Have been averaging 39 mpg in mixed driving. The car is very nice. Rides well but a little stiff. It definitely doesn't have the soft, "grandpa" ride of the older Avalons. It is very comfortable and all the electronics seem easy to navigate. Also considered the Fusion and MKZ hybrids as well as the diesel Passat. Chose the Avalon for its combo of mileage, value, power and fit and finish. Have received a lot of compliments on the look of the car. Was also able to negotiate a deal well below TMV and invoice. Very happy with this purchase so far. Update: Now at 36,000 miles. No problems (knock wood) with the car so far. Rides very well even better now that I have put some nice tires (Sumitomo) on the car. In hindsight the original tires were not very good as they squealed going around most corners and had a lot more road noise. The one disappointment I would say is that the mileage is not what I would have hoped. I get about 32 - 34 mpg combined highway and around town. I actually get better mileage on the highway (high 30's) and I thought hybrids were supposed to perform better around town. I believe the expected MPG posted on the car was high 30's combined. But overall, very happy with the purchase and hope to keep it for a long time.

My history of five BMW's, two Lexus's, one Mercedes added a 2013 Avalon Hybrid Limited with the tech package. I have put 9,000 miles on it since June and it is probably the best car I have owned. It is very stylish inside and out, luxurious, quiet, quick and very frugal on fuel. On a recent trip to Mesa. Az, the Kanab, Ut. to Mesa leg with speeds from 75 to 90 yielded an actual mileage of 38.2 MPG. Passing on the two lane roads was amazing. Accelerating from 70 mph and pulling back into lane over 100 mph with a hybrid! This car does not lack for power! In Blizzard Pearl the car receives constant compliments and people often stop me to ask questions about it. What a car!

I looked at probably 15-20 different vehicles..but i liked the idea of not being held hostage to the price of oil and the fact that this car is a luxury vehicle and gets 40mpg city is just amazing. I bought the full tech limited package..Pretty much same car as Lexus ES Hybrid only around 3k less. To get Toyota Quality/Reliability coupled with 40/39mpg/Luxury trim options, high end tech is just a really deep value...I can't think of a better value in the space. Lincoln MKZ Or Ford may have simliar but how long will it last? How much will maint be? After owning a german car the last 13yrs which was great but had horrible electric/hvac issues such a breath of fresh air to drive a Toyota.
GREAT CAR ! Minor Concerns

Purchased my 2013 Limited Hybrid in December. Now have a little over 9k miles. The mpg is definitely as advertised. It gets better after the break in period. Just did a round trip from New Jersey to Boston and averaged 40.5 mpg. The controls on the dashboard are extremely sensitive. It takes some getting used to. Over a period of time I learned to adapt.As others have stated, the ride can be a little harsh. However, this does not diminish my overall satisfaction with the vehicle. I would highly recommend it. Going into my third year I feel it is still a great car. Nearing 30k miles. MPG is diminished by the cold weather gas mix here in New Jersey by about 8 to 10%. However, it is still very good. No issues mechanically.
