Why Does the Avalon Sell Less Than the Camry?
1 Answers
The reasons why the Avalon sells less than the Camry are as follows: Exterior Design: The Avalon features a 'vase-style' front grille design, and its Lexus-inspired face enhances its sense of luxury. The bold, fishbone-like triple-headlight design gives it a more determined and powerful look, while the exaggerated large grille offers high recognition and eye-catching appeal. The Camry, on the other hand, is more dynamic. Additionally, different trims come with distinct front bumper designs—the standard version with multi-slat air intakes and the sporty front fascia of the XSE trim—making the Camry more appealing to younger buyers. Interior Design: The Camry's streamlined, asymmetrical interior is highly eye-catching and offers excellent texture, especially in the black-and-red color scheme, which enhances its sporty vibe. The dashboard features leather wrapping with stitching details, significantly elevating the interior's luxury feel compared to the previous generation. The Avalon's interior design is less sporty but still visually impactful, with a clear horizontal and vertical layout that conveys a youthful and trendy vibe, effectively eliminating any 'dull' impression. However, the top-mounted infotainment screen can cause glare issues in certain lighting conditions, which is a slight drawback. Body Dimensions: The Avalon is positioned half a tier above the Camry, classified as a B+ sedan. It boasts larger body dimensions and a longer wheelbase than the Camry. In real-world seating, the Avalon's rear legroom exceeds the Camry's by nearly four fingers, delivering outstanding space performance.
