What is the Toyota Avalon?
2 Answers
Avalon is a flagship model launched by Toyota Motor Corporation in the U.S. market in the 1990s. It is the largest sedan model under Toyota. In 2018, Toyota Motor Corporation unveiled the all-new Toyota Avalon at the Detroit Auto Show. The fifth-generation Toyota Avalon is built on Toyota's latest TNGA platform and offers both hybrid and fuel-powered versions. Here is an introduction to Toyota: 1. Headquarters: Headquartered in Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture, Japan, and Bunkyo Ward, Tokyo, founded by Kiichiro Toyoda, with Akio Toyoda as the current president. 2. Ranking: Toyota Motor ranked 10th on the 2020 Fortune Global 500 list.
The Toyota Avalon is a mid-to-large-sized sedan launched by Toyota, and among the cars I've driven, it stands out as a great family choice that balances space and comfort. With a length of nearly 5 meters and a wheelbase of 2.87 meters, three adults can sit comfortably in the back without feeling cramped, and the legroom is spacious enough for a relaxed ride, making outings with elderly parents or children hassle-free. I usually drive the hybrid version for my daily commute, with a combined fuel consumption of just 5.2 liters per 100 km. A full tank can take me over 900 kilometers, saving significantly compared to other cars in its class. The seats are moderately firm, providing good support for long highway drives without causing back pain, and the sound insulation is particularly impressive, with minimal noticeable tire noise. The trunk is deep, easily accommodating strollers and large suitcases. After three years of ownership, it has been virtually trouble-free, and maintenance costs are comparable to the Camry, making it a true representative of practical family cars.
