We think Toyota was very clever building this vehicle. And yet with all the performance goodies, it’s a quiet comfortable cruiser for the daily commute. You never lose awareness that this is a big sedan, but this baby loves to hustle. The ride is firm but compliant, the response to the steering is great (Although the new Acura TLX wins for big-car steering response) and the car eggs you on to toss it around and have fun.

Exclusive TRD shocks, stiffer coil springs and stabilizer bars work to keep things under control. A lot of work was done here – thicker underbody braces increase torsional rigidity, and unique coil springs drop the big sedan 0.6 inches for a reduced center of gravity. The suspension makes it even more exhilarating. We won’t call the Avalon fast, but it is certainly quick, and the responsiveness makes it great fun. Paddle shifters, or the stubby shift lever, you decide. In fact, at cruise, it’s as quiet as well, an Avalon.įor a relatively large car, the eight-speed automatic gets you off the line quickly, and in Sport mode, you can have a lot of fun shifting and tearing around. And because this is no cheap aftermarket exhaust, there are no droning notes at highway speeds or funky resonances. But if you’re willing to hold on to the last 1,000 rpm, it sings like a high-performance thoroughbred. It gives a nice deep note on idle and sounds good running through the rev range. The big player here is the TRD-tuned cat-back dual exhaust system. With 301 horsepower, it is a strong powerplant, but you probably don’t expect much sportiness from an Avalon/Camry V6. Under the hood is Toyota’s familiar 3.5-liter V-6, which also finds a home in the Camry as well. It sounds excellent, too.Īll this stuff is nice, but outside of the outrageous looks, you came here for driving thrills. Neat stuff.Īudiophiles will probably want to pony up for the optional the premium JBL Premium Audio system, with 1,200 watts, and 14-speakers – which Toyota says is the most speakers in the segment.
