After years of being known as the vehicle of choice for drivers over the age of 60. Toyota rejuvenates the 2019 Avalon with a youthful flair to include a polarizing new design, a stiffer structure courtesy of TNGA, a sport tuned exhaust system [on Touring trims], and dynamic new handling abilities. The gas V6 engine has also been energized to deliver over 300 horses with a new 8-speed transmission delivering power to the front wheels. The result is a driving experience that no other Avalon has had in the past and it should easily attract some new clients into the Avalon portfolio.
The people who complain about the new Avalon being too expressive and polarizing; are the same people who complained the Avalon was too boring and is only for old people.
oldschool1 aa!a
They also complain about the weather year round...
I have a 2014 Avalon and I give most of these cars with their “sport” car a GAAAP , pretty fast car and good mpg
junkmail so is the xle not a boat??
oldschool1 are they also the same people that told you a semi-colon can connect two incomplete sentences together?
“It’s not a power trunk, Toyota had to save something for Lexus” 😂😂😂
Good, I hate heavy slow opening power trunks.
i lol
I don’t need a power trunk if I did I would get a s class but an Avalon got a daly the limited hybrid is amazing for the price plus the Lexus is like 40k more
I just wish the grille was a little bigger...
Dalton Smith 😂😂
That was funny lol
Dalton Smith omg!! lmao 😂
Agreed I can still see the headlights
LOL!
Just bought the touring and have been joy riding it all week...love it love it love it. It's the only car I've ever driven that creates a luxury quiet oasis while still giving you the option of being sporty.
Hey, how is it as a daily driver? I don't really know what avs does, but does it worsen the ride quality any? How's driving in it for an hour? I might be getting a touring soon 🙂
Not sure what you mean by "avs", but if you mean the adaptive dampers, they work really well. I mostly keep them on normal and the ride is smooth and supple. When engaged in sport or sport +, the ride firms up and steering response is better. It's a great daily driver, albeit a bit large for just one person (I have kids with car seats in the back). Overall, very happy with purchase of this Touring Avalon after 45k miles. Still drives like a dream. @@alexfarmwald3946
There is remote start. You don't need the app. Hit lock button once, hit it again within 1 second and press it and hold it for like 3 seconds. The car lights will flash a couple times. Works on my 2019 Limited Hybrid.
I have that on my 07 avalon so no way this wouldn't have it
It's slowly turning into a lexus...
And that's not even its final form
Loaded Taco mppppppp
Loaded Taco toyota is Lexus company
dead zone312 Dude that comment was amazing
Its a hybrid
Underrated cars. Very reliable and the ride comfort is one of the best. As a mechanic myself I’ve driven Mercedes S classes, and even a Bentley at one point. And the Avalon’s ride comfort, although not on the same level, is close enough. For a car a fraction of the price.
Is the Lexus ES smoother than the Avalon?
I’ve wanted one of these Avalons ever since I drove one a couple years ago. Still too expensive for me since I’m a teenager lol. Maybe one day.
@@thisismagacountry1318 yes
@@thisismagacountry1318 It's the same car bro, you just pay extra 30K 😂
@InternacionalBoxing I know it's built on the same platform, but it has better insulation and suspension, and it's only 4K more.
You don't pay attention.
I Got the XSE in Harbor Gray - its SWEET! Love my Avalon and I'm not OLD either!! Good job Toyota!!
I’m 19 and would love an Avalon. Still out of my price range but absolutely love the car
@@yammmit im 16 and i want this car lmao
300HP and that much torque is no joke. This thing is sick!
The Nissan Altima makes more horsepower
@@alexklein455 But then you'd have to own a Nissan
@@leeklinglesmith3427 Ford Taurus Sho is faster
@@alexklein455 the altima? The altima only makes 252 HP with the top of the line engine
Why does everyone like to pick on Toyota?
I just got a 2019 Avalon limited in white and I am obsessed
How much u pay down how much in all
Toyota is being cheap they didn't put wood trim on the Avalon
@@theshield1613 they put real wood on the Avalon
@@jxmar_ not the steering wheel
@@theshield1613 the last avalon to have wood on the steering wheel was 2012
i dont know why i watch this videos! i dont plan on buying a 2019 car soon heck cant even buy a new pair of underwear haha
I'm with you
I hear ya lol
Maybe get a job if you're able to work? The economy is doing good so there are plenty of jobs out there...
Lol
lol sad but true. they want you to have job experience without a job
The grill looks like Darth Vader’s mouth
Either that or put a clock face on the front it'll be flavor Flav.
Yea
Zylon helmet from Battlestar Galactica
WOW, great and perfect comparison
The front of the car looks cool to me. The black grill makes the car look more aggressive. Everybody have their opinion. I liked that ruby color Avalon tho
Same Idk why people hating on the grille
I agree.. I love it
Jay Make you must also love men
Jadoe Hustles & you must hate yourself
I agree with you
Am I the only one that likes the grill ?
Gabriel Arteaga I personally love it
Gabriel Arteaga I like it to
Gabriel Arteaga
Almost. You, and the blind design team, and the execs that rubber stamped this monstrosity.
Yeah you literally the only one who likes it, everyone else hates it
Gabriel Arteaga probably. It looks like a cowcatcher on a steam locomotive from the 1800’s. 😩
I prefer a bigger grille...means less paint damage to your front end when you're driving in the freeway.
Yet worse aerodynamics
Toyota should of got George Foreman as a spokesman for that car.
Love this comment
I literally died!! 🤣🤣💀
Don’t ever get into a head on collision with an Avalon. No one knows for sure, where the black hole in the front leads to......we just might never see you again and you’ll be off into Avalala land forever.
PROTOSTAR , the grill is a Harry Potter portal.
😂😂
Being a Toyota enthusiast this is my take..
I agree on the grille it’s too large (maybe look better in person) but the grill looks the best on darker color cars like the red XSE. Now once you get past the grill the rest of the car is beautiful.That red model is really damn good looking. That interior is best in class. Love the V6 engine, love the LED headlights and taillights with the moving signals... looks like a winning product.
I like Avalon over Camry.
Pitu Q I love my 2019 Avy xse over my 2017 camry! The damn v6 301 hp really gets it!!!

james lyons l
...... _doesnt everyone?_
@@googoo-gjoob right
BMW and Toyota are challenging each other with the grille 😂
Love It!
Looks even better in person; and those dynamic turn signals make it look more expensive.
Hats off to Toyota for this Avalon. Most carmakers are eliminating car models and going to SUV'S for their entire production. The SUV'S have their following but if you're driving over a long road trip the car is the most comfortable option. I have never purchased a foreign car but that will probably change for my next car. The styling of this Avalon is great and the interior is beautiful, love the color on the model you tested.
Richard Rybarczyk your an old person I can tell.
This car is fire 😍
if you think a sedan is going to be more comfortable than an SUV over a long drive then you probably haven't been on many road trips or haven't driven many cars....
I'm 16 and i really like this car. It's not an "old mans" car its stylish and contemporary.
The One . Why because he’s purchased multiple cars before? Keep adding to that piggy bank. I’ll sell u my grandmas old Buick sitting in my garage....
In 5 years it will be a grill hood
meow.
😂 😂
2038 Avalon, The entire body will be a grill
Lmao
Scott Murphy . Or a grill in da hood
I’ve seen quite a few new Avalons on the road and they actually look very elegant and sleek in person. They stand out than most cars that all look the same now days. The grill doesn’t look bad and makes it more aggressive.
Sofyan, your reviews are always so professional and informative. What cameras do you use? The quality is incredible. Thanks for all your reviews.
That grille gets a "What were you thinking!? "
They keep lowering sedans its not practical. I keep hitting front bumper getting out of Parking Garages.
You should see me tip toeing around in my lexus ct 200h. It looks like I'm driving a super car when I come to a small incline such as a drive through.
so..
Noob
Armando Sturzenegger the ct200h costed less than the Avalon. Why are u watching a video about the Avalon, if you think it's a rich people thing?
same with my 18 Malibu
Avalon versus Maxima? I’d go for the Avalon on reliability alone.
jeffthornton i fuck my car
I got an 07 maxima 3.5 se and it got 238k miles going strong
Kurosaki Tagami the Avalons are nice looking but not that nice looking
yammmit Not really a young person’s design. Too practical. I’d say perfect for someone 35 or older.
jeffthornton I’m 19 and I’d absolutely love to have an Avalon. I would get one if I had the money. Drove one in 2018 and it was just so nice.
This car is no joke. My aunt let me drive her 2019 Avalon and that thing was fast going down the country roads.
This car looks like it's wearing a mouthguard
Panther Pope 😂😂😂
Toyota and Lexus had a baby??
Lexus is Toyota's baby
No. Toyota is Lexus baby
xITSxPHOEx
The first Toyota was produced in 1937.
The first Lexus was produced in 1990.
Thanks for the info but I meant in these terms of being older and more refined. Like an aged wine. My choice of words was poor. Again, thanks for the info ! Cool tip!
Wouldn’t that be incest?
This thing looks like it should be some kind of AWD or RWD twin turbo TRD model.
The Toyota crown is......with a bunch of engine options(basically a Lexus gs)
Kingjay814 ĵķjjjjjjjjjjjj
I'd give my left nut for an awd turbo version.
Yeah... Twin turbo is an interesting concept. But, it's not exactly enviable if you want your car to last more than 5 years.
Looks like one of Toyota's employees about to get fired for forgetting to badge this car a "Lexus" in America.
There’s already a Lexus twin, it’s the ES 350.
Same company.
Es and camry xse same platform.
We use the same engines in both companies. Your paying for interior, exterior press aluminum sheeting and badging really.
Som Phophet actually the ES platform is based off of the Toyota Avalon now.
I bought my 2008 Avalon Limited with 41,000 miles in 2013 in Oklahoma City while in the military. I have driven this car to California, Texas, Colorado, many trips to Maryland, and then to Virginia where I now live. It now has 256,000 miles and besides headlight issue nothing but optional repairs...Shocks several times, water pump at 200k, and a few other things I did just because. Am now looking at a 2019 XSE. I saw one in person and looked great. Love the sporting look. Will be getting a red one soon, and will be given my 08 to my brother. The AVALON is perhaps the best built car ever.
avalon got discontinued this year unfortunately
I’ve driven A LOT of cars over the years, and had several, and my Avalon is my all time favorite I’ve ever had. When this ever dies, I’m getting a new one. I’m obsessed with mine.
I hate that the overwhelming majority of the grille doesn’t even serve a purpose. You can see the plastic that covers the front of the frame and the bumper behind the mesh. Looks terrible!!!!
Like 90% of that front grille is fake... Nice!
Yes, agree! The car would look much nicer, if the 2 side parts would be closed and only the middle part as a grill. I like Toyota as a brand, but their design is really ugly in most of their cars.
Maybe plastic is cheaper to manufacture
no it isn't
rynomuncher at least someone understands
If you mean plastic easier to manufacture, it really is. It is also a hell lot easier to work with.
The front end better transform into a portable toaster.. with all that grill!
DrinkMoWater it accually does. As well as a microwave. One of the strong selling points
Not bad then.. ha
DrinkMoWater Fuck that,it should unfold into a BBQ Grill😂😂😂😂
Brutha Dnubian it does that too. It's also a turns patatoes into Fry's and grinds cheese
Love that steez pic
I have an 07 Avalon and it has 140k miles and it runs like a dream. Toyota 4 life.
I recently test drove the 2019 Avalon, and it was really, really good! It wasn't bulky feeling; it felt nimble and capably. I did a tight turn and it made it very easily. If I weren't so in love the with Mazda 6, I might buy this car. And in the final analysis a V6 is a good idea. If this car is discontinued, it will be a very sad day. I hate SUVs.
I'm just got my new car but whenever I get a new one hopefully 10 years from now, I already know it's between this and a Mazda 6. I'm sure the Mazda engines & transmissions will keep getting better.
It's getting discontinued for the 2022 model year
@@NileshR12 I know, it seems that pretty soon there will be no more sedans-- only SUVs and so-called "cross overs". Disgusting how people are such lemmings and buy what the other guy has. I have a real station wagon, and love it.
The grille is like 😬
Novaseth LOL 😂 damn it really does look like that
truuu 😂
lol dude you are funny as fuck
Should have come with AWD and a smaller grill.that engine and interior is top notch tho
Now it has AWD, but like the Camry, it’s only available for the 4 cylinder engine.
Looks better than the Accord and has a V6. I'm sold.
Need more torque to move your fat ass? Stop eating unnecessary food idoits. Horse power over torque any day for a car morons
The One It's funny that you misspelled "idiots". Also, calm the fuck down.
Dee Vee so your fat and eats unnecessary food? Ok!
The One But the avalon has more horsepower and less torque than the accord .. lol 😂
@@theone6805 it's "you're" you fucking child
So the red leather is only on the Camry? Dude must really love red leather 😂
🤔🤔🤔
They do offer red leather for the TRD.
Actually saw this car today driving past a Toyota dealership and thought it was a Lexus but was confused because it had a Toyota badge on it. Little did I know, it’s the new Avalon! Really like the look of this car 😁
They should cover the whole car with grill
Oh god, the proportions... From the giant grill to small brakes.
Thomas Griffin saw great value in the Camry but saw the single piston calipers,
Thomas Griffin fccc
Ashoka,,,,
Why is Toyota so obsessed with huge grills? If the government didn’t mandate for cars to have headlights, the entire front would be a grill and they’d have their headlights on the dashboard. Lol
I love the 2019 Avalon re-design. But, I'm disappointed that they didn't add the panoramic sun-roof like they did on the Camry and Rav4 upper trim levels. That would've been an extra nice touch. Still might go for it in the future.
Mine is a 2006 Avalon Limited. I looked to upgrade until the entire front of the newer car turned into a huge grille with a car attached. So I’m sticking with my 2006 model which is beautiful.
The camry and avalon have bangin rear ends.
Im glad Toyota has not went to push button gear shift like Acura.
am i the only person that loves the front grille?
yes
No
No
Saw one today on the road. Gorgeous ! Lights are amazing
Im in love with this car😍😍 probably going to get one soon
Good job keeping the sedan alive toyota!
jmasoncar s huh?? There are plenty of better sedans than this on the market that are "keeping sedans alive". 3 series, ATS, stinger gt, civic, Mazda 3, charger, 300, accord with a manual just to name a few. And don't forget the high performance M, V and AMG sedans as well.
Karun Chendrimada 100% agree (except with the charger) . I'm just giving Toyota credit for putting in the effort.
jmasoncar s to each his own, but I see no effort here, at least not a successful one. The charger is a much MUCH better sedan than anything Toyota makes when it comes to keeping the sedan alive. Like it or not, there is a huge following and demand for the charger because of it's design, power, driving dynamics AND four seating practicality. On the other hand, the only people that buy this, the corolla, or the Camry only do so for practical reasons, mostly cost and reliability (which isn't exclusive to Toyota like some people think it is)
Karun Chendrimada let me be more clear, based on Toyotas lack of effort during the last 20 years this is a big step up. Toyota has used the same platform for almost 20 years until now so in my eyes it's a welcomed improvement over the old Avalon. I am in no way shape or form a Toyota fanboy. If I was in the market I would buy an accord any day over this or a Camry. Frankly I'd buy any Honda product over a Toyota. The reason Toyota is/was so reliable is becuase it's easy to make a 20 year old platform bulletproof which is why the new Camry on the TNGA platform is on is 4th or 5th recall already. Now if you're talking about the Charger, 300, Challenger or Grand cherokee that's even worse because it's based off of a platform that was used on the 1996 E class mercedes. As far as driving dynamics, performance and features I'd say Chrysler is at the bottom with their rear wheel drive platforms. Buying a charger would be like buying a Ford Taurus.
jmasoncar s i agree
Toyota and Honda still have NO IDEA what they want to do with their grilles.
I think Toyota got it right on the Camry SE. The LE versions are gross. 🤮🤢
Would have been a great looking car if it wasnt for that huge grill
Haven't driven one yet, but I sat in one at the auto show earlier this year. I love the interior and the instrument panel. If I had extra money to burn, I'd buy one!
You actually can remote start the Avalon from the key fob. All you do is press the lock button twice quickly and hold it down. The lights will flash and the car will start! Our 2021 Highlander has it!
It makes no sense how you offer a full panoramic moonroof on your smaller midsize sedan but don't have the option available on your larger full size lol smh
tony45x220 couldn't agree more... Seems just dumb as this is a nicer car!
tony45x220 ditto
why would you want a pano sunroof? It adds cost, complications, and less headroom..
Maks A feeling of airiness, openness, seeing the nice sky.
SURE, but I don't look up when i drive)) Again, pano sunroof would be low on my priorities list.
The front end will be a pain to clean
actually no.... because its all fake grill lol
Well you can’t clean something you don’t have lol
dont take it to heart bud
My thought exactly
have fun cleaning the bugs off that grill lol
Pressure washer.
Gregory Rose III yeah cuz u should spray pressurized water into your engine bay. 🤦♂️
Emaad Khan you can spray your engine bay if you cover over some components u tard. It won’t damage shit
@@emaadkhan3031 Do you have any idea what components of the engine bay need protection from water? If you know your engine bay layout and cover up some basic things like the alternator, fusebox, air filter, etc. you can spray however much water you want. 🤦♂️
Roger Smith majority of engine bays nowadays are covered in plastic
This is probably the best car you can buy. It has decent styling and impeccable reliability. The size is perfect for families, and it’s drives very well. The price you can’t beat. I have a 2008 Avalon limited and i went to drive this one and was like WOW. I really don’t need a payment or new car since my 2008 with 259K is still driving like a champ. Last visit to service as told this car has no problems. Only thing i have done is replace breaks, tires and done alignments. Just replace front arm bushing and that is it.
Basically keep the Toyota badge on a Lexus body.
Because toyata owns lexus be practical
Toyota should go for AWD Avalon
Contimex oil was thinking that... at least make it an option
Even the Altima has that option now
Popular cars should have a option for AWD.
Yea lol fwd = automatically not on the list of cars to look at. These look very nice though. The fronts a little out there but in person it doesn't look bad
They should have AWD or even RWD on all their models. Especially on the new Camry. I would definitely buy the Camry if it was AWD.
It'll eat anything on its way lol
Omg! I was waiting for
your awesome review!
Proper Gods I like your profile pic
Mohammed Miah thanks!
Proper Gods: Wait for it, wait for it....boom there it is
That’s is really amazing of this all brand new avalon. The front and rear bumper looks perfect. Also comes with front and rear dynamic turn signals. Omg.
I love this car. Good job Toyota
that front, it's very inspired by the lexus is300, especially that grill. the rear too... My opinion.
7ETRNL Well, Lexus is related so....... it kinda figures.
Bob Kerbs I get that, but my point is when I want a Lexus, I go for a Lexus, not a Toyota that looks like a Lexus. Infiniti is the luxury division of Nissan just like Lexus is for Toyota, but when you see a Nissan, it's a Nissan, not to be mistaken for an Infiniti. This Toyota can completely be mistaken for a Lexus. That's what I can't swallow. The Toyota Prius and the Lexus CT 200h share the same hybrid engine and same gear box, but the body is totally different, and that's perfectly fine by me. But this Toyota isn't. They should have go for a different body style.
Agreed. There's tons of Lexus design language here. If the grill was smaller it would look a lot like a GS F
"So when you finally find the trunk release" lmao
Where is the place for the license plate on the front?
On your dash lmao
Either you zip tie the plate to the grill or you get a retractable license plate
as long as you have one in the back i think that's legal.
@@briandunivent a lot of states (including my state) require front license plates to be put in the front.
Damn I'm still driving my 99' Avalon lol
Irving wrong with that ur the smart one
Nothing*
99 avalon are nice cars
That's how the Camry should look like front and back. Front end is very aggressive looking
I saw a Sky Blue one on the road and was *INSTANTLY* in *LOVE*
I want one 😍
Damn what that mouth do!?
It's a sophisticated insect collector.
CINO gargle bug nut
CINO Mouf*
wtf hahaha
CINO : it will make you holler for a dollar
Front of the car looks like my mom's face when I didn't do my chores yet
I like those headlights but that grill man... just why? Who is their designer? If they have one...
some artistic guy who, sadly, lost his sight about 5 years ago. But they still let him design cars out of sympathy.
At first I never liked the grill but after looking at it over and over again I loved it this grill make the Avalon’s looks aggressive and sporty
The grill makes the car look like a whale shark sadly
inster will just like the 3rd gen Tacoma
This car should be named the Toyota Grill
The grill is to much and the rims are to big with little rubber around it and you will feel every bump on the road with car but overall the avalon look like lexus and that is the good thing in my opinion.
Wheels too big with little rubber won't make the car ride bad. I know that's the case when you go aftermarket wheels and rims because those cars were not made for that but trust me I owne a keep grandcheroke with 20s and 245 tires and it handles like a dream and rides really quiet and smoothly.
This shit looks nothing like a Lexus.
CHRIS DLC sorry but your dumb..your suspension system is what makes the ride smooth or ruff. Not rims and tires smh...go back to school.
i'm sure the high profile wheels/tires are probably standard, that's how it usually is with these cars. Unless you tick the box for the premium low profile tires, and have dealers look for those special equipped vehicles in the area.
Your tires does make a difference cause the thinner the tire the harder it is to support the weight of the car but its not that thin and the suspension has been tuned for it so it’ll be fine actually thinner tires handle better than taller tires less roll and quicker steering response
U really want that red leather man
Red would certainly be better than what he had in this video. Shit was wack.
Red leather is cool but this dark tan interior looks amazing. Subaru is doing something similar on the new Legacy and I love it. If I wanted red leather I’d get a BMW.
I'm selling my tundra and Sequoia and planning to get one of these next. Just haven't fully decided whether to get the V6 or the hybrid. Love the red and the new design though! Can't wait to get mine!
Imagine how bad that plastic grille will look 10 years from now when it’s completely faded and full of bug guts
soiceyboy33 well this is a toyota that we’re talking about aka the car that’s built to last and there are certain plastics with certain finishes that dont fade so i really dont think it will be having any of those issues
roj30001 Plastic is plastic. Doesn't matter if it's a Toyota or GM product, it WILL fade. Have you not seen how horrible the black plastic cladding looks on most SUVs after a while? Specifically Pontiac Aztecs and Chevy Avalanche from the early 2000s? Terrible... and they're not even on the front of the car like the Avalon, which will take abuse from pounding rain, snow, insects, rock debris etc.
soiceyboy33 and thats also not the same plastic with the same finish as i was referring too those do fade i have an expedition xlt with that trim but the eddie Bauer version of that trim dosnt fade because its a different plastic different finish as i stated before it’s probably not going to fade
soiceyboy33 I don’t think you can really compare early 2000’s GM product to a Toyota.
The grille is painted and clear coated. it will not fade with proper maintnence
My perfect sedan would be: the side and front profile of the 2018 accord, the rear exterior of the 2019 Avalon, and a V6 with a regular 10 speed transmission.
That grill...WHY?
That champagne color interior is gorgeous. Want it!
Great video as usual - I am always impressed by how you are able to recite a ton fo facts and specifications without having to read them off of a card. The 2019 Avalon has a nice looking interior but Toyota nickles and dimes one to death at each stage of the upgraded trim. Bottom line - if you can afford an Avalon then you can afford a Lexus and get a better return for your $$$.
The Front of that car reminds me of the 1980 Battlestar Galactica Zylon Helmets 😁
I bought one and I love it.
You must be a soccer ⚽️ mom
@@lijie6431 😂😂😂😂😂 u killed me
Good for you!
I wished I could afford it.
What?! They have apple carplay and even Alexa ... But no Android Auto???
Since when was it ever a grandma's car in the 1st place???
The designer of that front grill should be convicted of public vulgarity. lol
Damm Toyota is stepping up their game! They actually took into account the lights and did something nice with them lol
The smile on sofian face when he drives the avalon wasn't there when he drives the maxima, please nissan stop that ridiculous gear box CVT and fire the compeition between them.
THIS LOOKS AMAZING!!!
Great Job Sofyan! You do so many reviews in Cali you should move there 👍
I must have missed it. Do they offer the red leather on the Avalon? Or how about the Camry?
