Overview

Cars like the 2019 Toyota Avalon hybrid might not be able to give you direct benefits one might expect from its hybrid powertrain. However, its usefulness must not be overlooked. The Toyota Avalon hybrid uses its 2.5-Liter Inline-4 engine and two electric motors with 244.8 Volt battery pack to produce 215 horsepower. This gives the Avalon hybrid a 0-60 of 7.8 seconds. The hybrid engine here is to support the gasoline engine to boost performance and offer slightly better fuel economy than what a single gasoline engine would be capable of. That said, the 2019 Avalon hybrid achieves a combined fuel economy of 44 MPG. As part of the fullsize sedan segment, the Toyota Avalon hybrid competes with the Ford Fusion hybrid Sedan, the Buick LaCrosse hybrid, and the Hyundai Sonata hybrid. It offers 3 trims, starting off at MSRP $36,650.

Buying Advice

The 2019 Toyota Avalon Hybrid Limited is the best trim for most people. It has a comfortable and well-equipped interior, a long list of standard safety features, and a smooth and refined ride. To be specific, the luxuries of heated leather seats with ventilated function for front seating, driver's seat memory function, wireless charging, a sunroof, and a head-up display are all worthy additions when you're looking in the full-size sedan segment. Moreover, you can get the Advanced safety package as an option only on this trim.
