Don’t do what I do and pay list price for the car. The Toyota Avalon hybrid Limited 2018 is a very comfortable riding car the AC and heating controls are top notch and the navigation system is better than average. The car is missing apple play or android auto Which is a big defect for the car. All the controls and will placed and easy to reach. From the outside the car looks fantastic it doesn’t have that stupid 2019. W which is a big defect for the car. All the controls are well placed and easy to reach. From the outside the car looks fantastic it doesn’t have that stupid 2019 grill. When it comes to handling it handles like or front wheel drive cars if you make a sharp left or right turn the weight of the engine falls on to the driving wheels cousing the wheels to chrip at the stearing to become harder. Otherwise it’s just fine. The CVT were invisible in the back room to give you the best mpg. The car is slightly under powered really needs a slightly bump in power to make pulling away from the stoplight or getting onto an interstate on ramp easier. The interior of the car is very attractive. The heated and cooled front seats are wonderful. Even though the batteries are in the trunk you still at plenty of room to put your stuff. It’s also missing some of the new safety features like auto stop when you are at 360° camera‘s etc. My wife loves the car as it is and I think most passengers will too.

A comfortable Sedan. Very quiet on the road. Plenty of power, but not a racer. After a recent 4000+ mile trip getting more than 41 mpg overall. Adjustment to the driver's seat can be a bit tricky, at times. Not had it long enough to comment on repairs and other value. I have had great service experience the 2 times I have had it back to a dealership, one which was during our long trip.

My Fourth Hybrid Toyota - working to perfect

Unexpected comfort, great power, quiet operation although I would like to add some more acustimat, good fuel economy, wonderful cruise control with radar (millimeter wave speed tracking), great backup camera, one of the few cars with laminated windows all around, big trunk for a hybrid, heated seats for quick comfort in cold weather, and everyone comments on the gorgeous paint. After one year, we still love the car and comfort features. I drive using the cruise most of the time, staying a bit further back, but enjoying the ride. We fill the tank about half as much as the Tacoma Pick up. This car has grown on me. Still no issues, except dealers are terrible no matter what car I have and I have had most brands and models.
