Purchased my Avalon Hybrid 2 weeks ago and cannot believe how Toyota developed a "near perfect car". During the first week, after being completely blown away at the overall quality, inside and out, the gas mileage was a shocker!! The first tank of gas delivered 47.7 MPG. Now on the second fill-up and am averaging 44.6 MPG. Driving has been mixture of highway and city/town. WOW. What a surprise. Great value!! Has been a great value. Still gets 42 mpg. After 7 years still feels like a new car! Will be very difficult to part with it. Avalon is still going strong! Excellent overall quality, very good gas mileage (still 42 mpg). After 76,000 miles the only thing to be replaced are tires. Now at 89000 miles and still averaging 42MPG. Cross country twice and a joy to ride with comfort. Odometer reads 137500 and still "quite a great car". Mileage continues to be 38-42!!

Best value for the money

I purchased my 2013 new in October 2013 and just made in through the toughest winter in over 100 years with flying colors. MPG slips in cold weather but once the car heats up 42mpg+ is HWY average at about 70mph, sometimes more. To get optimum mileage a break in period is needed and then use cruise control whenever possible. I expect this car to last 500,000+ miles but not with 10,000 miles per oil change. I do that every 5000 miles now and may drop that to every 4000 miles which with the battery often pulling the car drops that even more. If you want it to last that long, you must change the oil more frequently. Absolutely the best engineered car in the industry today.

Well I have to confess that after driving BMW and Audi for the last 16 years and I still love bimmers. I have taken a real shine to my Toyota Avalon Hybrid. I purchased mine in June 2013 and funny things is I went to the dealership to test drive a Toyota Highlander Hybrid. I had been researching Hybrid vehicles and SUV's for a couple months and was convinced that Toyota had the most robust and reliable Hybrid technology on the market. (True Statement). I have receivied several compliments on my my avalon and so far, its been quite, efficient, reliable, and pleasant to drive. Very Impressive Toyota! Buy one and you'll think twice on BMW, Audi, & Lexus. 42.9 so far ! Fantastic !

I've had many Toyota's. They are ultra reliable. Love the looks of the Avalon hybrid and it averages 39 MPG. The only drawback is the rough ride over pavement expansion joints.. This is supposed to be corrected on the 2016's. I wish I'd gone with the limited rather than the touring model just for the extra bells and whistles.

What more can be said about an Avalon and it's reliability (The Good) The low front end is a magnet for stones, snow, etc. (The Bad) The entertainment and navigation system (The Ugly)
