Pros Sharp styling, surprisingly nimble chassis, high-tech cabin.
Cons Tight third row passenger space, mediocre fuel economy ratings, fussy infotainment touchpad.
Pros Expressive shape Swell ride and handling Even more space Type S performance and comfort Strong in safety
Cons Hybrid’s gone... ...and gas mileage remains mediocre Third-row access is tight Tetchy touchpad interface
For the shrinking number of people buying large sedans, the Avalon will do quite nicely.
Pros Efficient powertrains, huge trunk space, long list of standard features.
Cons Polarizing exterior, bland-looking infotainment interface, all-wheel drive only offered on two trims.
The 2020 Toyota Avalon works best as a stylish, comfortable cruiser, and not as a wannabe sports sedan.
Pros Stylish lines, mostly Comfortable cruiser Commendable hybrid Well-equipped Spacious back seat
Cons Does it really need to be sporty? Overwrought styling at times Poor V-6 mpg Can get expensive
