The 2021 Toyota Avalon Hybrid is a cruiser that does exactly what you'd expect — provide a comfortable ride and sip fuel in the process. But it has a few tricks up its sleeve too. It turns out to be surprisingly capable on twisty roads, and cabin materials are near-luxury. New for the redesigned model are folding rear seats and a cargo area that offers the same amount of room as the non-hybrid.

2021 Toyota Avalon Hybrid Limited 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)

Just moved up from a 2015 Camry LE to "The Beast". The dealership "made an offer I couldn't refuse". I've only driven the car for a week. There are so many bells and whistles (digital) that I recommend going to YouTube and watch the 2020 2Guys and a Ride vehicle features and Infotainment System videos. For more Toyota specifics on the Battery, Hybrid , and Engine watch The Car Nut. …

Love it!

2021 Toyota Avalon Hybrid XLE 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)

I have the XLE. It has a quiet smooth ride. The seats are softex which I like. I like the safety features such as precollision, rear cross traffic alert, dynamic cruise control and blind spot monitoring in outside mirrors plus other features that I am not yet familiar with.

Great gas mileage

2021 Toyota Avalon Hybrid Limited 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)

What led me to buy a new Toyota was gas mileage. I looked at all their models and test drove them all. I settled for the 2021 Avalon Hybrid Limited as I felt it was the quietest and it advertised 42/42 city and hwy estimated mileage. Very accurate city mileage but highway was off to my pleasure. I averaged 48 mpg on my trip from Florida to Boston, Mass!!!!! 2021 TOYOTA AVALON HYBRID …
