This car has a great drive, I also own a 2012 Toyota camry and I love that car. The avalon has a few things that are difficult to adjust to like the connection of your phone to the maps and most in car to use, the back vents dont seem to work and the seats aren't that comfortable this car could of been AWD but Toyota didn't give it its best on the year. The car has a stylish look that dont add up to most thats needed.

The Entertainment/NAV system is slow and archaic

When you press any button the system takes at least 3 seconds to load. It makes me want to scream. The menu does not make sense whatsoever. The electronics in my 2015 Venza were fast at least. There is this random setting called “Convenience Features” that can be either switched on or off. I don’t know what this does and honestly not one person at the dealership could tell me. I hate Toyota so much but own a 2019 Toyota Avalon Touring for some reason. Several Toyota employees have ridden in my Uber and they are downright crappy people.

Love the Car....Hate the Grille

We have loved three Avalon's, 1998, 2004 & 2011. Still think the car is great but the new grille design made us switch to BMW.

Best car I've ever owned.

No exclamation points...no kidding. Bought this car because it was a smoking deal (discounted regional demo) and it checked all my personal boxes. I ended up getting even more than I thought I was. The ride is amazingly smooth on cruiser roads in Eco mode, but tightens up great in Sport+ for our Colorado mountain curves (which also enables the engine sound enhancer...you can hear the windup and downshift engine braking through the speakers?!). Paddle-shifters on Touring (and XSE?) models let you set the highest gear you want to be in, not necessarily what the car uses. More than enough power for even the steepest grades. Inside, the seats are really comfortable for long trips, ventilated and heated in front and heated all around. Everything is in easy reach of the driver, and after a week or two it's pretty intuitive. Could use a bit more storage, but to be honest I don't know where it would go. Plenty of USB charger outlets (at least 4?), and there's a wireless cell phone charging pad. The driver's tech is more than I've ever had, but I'm really only using the base Nav system and Bluetooth. I've read the cautionary tales of Entune, and don't think I'd benefit much. Absolutely love the heads-up windshield display, and radar-assisted cruise control that adjusts the car's speed to maintain a distance (user-settable) behind the jerks in front that can't pick a speed. Also like the parking and rear cross-traffic warnings, and the view cameras work flawlessly (guess I'm lucky after reading others' complaints). The exterior styling is eye-catching, even the giant maw of a grill (only about a third open for for airflow, actually). Got a thumbs-up from a big pickup driver I was driving next to in traffic...not bad for a grandpa's car (8 times over). It's obvious that Toyota has tried to make this appeal to a wider audience, and at least for the Touring model, seems to have really made it work.
