2012 toyota avalon review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. Superb full-size sedan. introductionavalon was mildly re-styled and updated inside for 2011. Avalon carries over for 2012. Avalon is more tranquil than many sedans that cost a lot more. Empty-nesters will appreciate it for its comfort and flexibility, and families for its space, low operating cost and extensive list of standard equipment. the 2012 avalon comes in two models: loaded, and really loaded. The base avalon comes with just about everything any driver really needs, and then some, including leather seating, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a good stereo with bluetooth, xm satellite radio and a cd changer. The front seats are roomy and comfortable, the back seat downright spacious. The avalon rides as comfortably as any car made, almost impervious to the worst roads we travel. the 268-horsepower avalon delivers good acceleration and mileage for such a roomy car. Its automatic transmission is quick shifting and decisive. The standard array of safety equipment surpasses that required by federal law, including a knee-protection airbag for the driver, and avalon performs well in government and insurance-industry crash tests. bottom line, the toyota avalon is easy to like and even easier to enjoy. The audio system has nine speakers, a six-cd changer, xm satellite radio receiver, a usb connector and bluetooth wireless connectivity. Options include heated front seats 440), memory seats with heating and cooling 1,020), and premium, 660-watt jbl synthesis audio 900) with 12 speakers. The navigation system with jbl audio 2,350) uses a 4cd changer and includes a rearview camera. Dealer installed options include remote start. avalon limited 36,435) adds a proximity key with pushbutton start, hid headlamps, a wood-and-leather-trimmed shift knob and steering wheel, rain-sensing windshield wipers and a power sunshade for the rear glass. Options for the limited are limited to a touch-screen navigation system with voice control 1,450) and rearview camera; and special paint colors 220). safety features on all avalons include front-impact airbags, a driver's knee airbag, seat-mounted side-impact airbags for front passengers, side-curtain head-protection airbags for outboard passengers front and rear and active front seat headrests, which are intended to cradle the head more effectively in a rear impact and limit whiplash injuries. Active safety features include vehicle stability control (vsc), anti-lock brakes (abs) with electronic brake-force distribution (ebd) and brake assist, and a tire pressure monitor. The optional rearview camera included with the navigation system can help the driver spot a child or pedestrian when backing up and we recommend getting it. walkaroundthe toyota avalon's calling card certainly isn't flashy looks. On the other hand, its styling is appropriately staid and elegant, and anything but offensive. The shape comes across as exactly what it is: a wrapping for the exceptionally comfortable, spacious cabin inside. In that sense, it recalls some stately european sedans of the 1950s and '60s. overall, the avalon is eight inches longer than toyota's top-selling camry sedan. By most exterior dimensions, avalon is roughly the same size as the ford taurus, chevrolet impala, and chrysler 300. Compared to european luxury sedans, it's larger than the mid-size mercedes e-class, but smaller than the full-size s-class sedan. subtle details distinguish avalon limited from the standard car. Its wheels have 10 thin spokes rather than five thicker ones, and its door handles are chrome rather than painted. The limited's headlight clusters feature high-intensity discharge low beams, and its side mirrors have led puddle lights underneath. These are essentially invisible until the doors are unlocked with the key fob, at which point the puddle lights dump a swath of light on the pavement underneath the front doors. interiorthe toyota avalon is one of toyota's best interior packages. The interior is perfectly appropriate to this sedan's general character. It contributes to avalon's serene ambience and, from the functional perspective, it's top-notch. Its door openings are large, and the side doors have three stop positions rather than the typical two. That makes it easier for people of all sizes and strengths to get the doors to catch. The step-in height is low, yet the seat bottoms are fairly high, so the drop down or thrust up is short for averaged size drivers and passengers. once inside, occupants are greeted with a finish that's warm and pleasing. It reminded us of much more expensive cars. There are still a couple of trim pieces to demonstrate that the avalon is not an extra-expensive luxury car but fewer than ever. The steering wheel in the limited has wood-leather trim, like an $80,000 european car. The simulated wood trim now has a matte, oiled look, rather than the glossy stuff toyota favored for years. If it doesn't look exactly like wood, it's genuinely attractive. Even the painted plastic pieces and chrome rings around the gauges and knobs are improved. The fit of the various parts and panels is impeccable. the front seats are large enough to accommodate oversize folk, but not so expansive that they make petite occupants feel uncomfortable or unsupported. Overall, we loved them. They'll adjust for a wide range of drivers, and the controls offer an excellent compromise between adequate adjustment and too many things to fiddle with. The avalon limited features a fan in the seat cushion and seatback that blows air through the perforated leather trim to improve comfort. the steering wheel tilts and telescopes manually through a wide range. The side-mirror adjustor is on the dash to the left of the steering column, and nearly all drivers will be able to reach the switch and set the mirrors with back, shoulders and head settled into the normal driving position. The steering wheel has redundant buttons for climate and voice activation on the right spoke, and phone and audio on the left, and these too are an excellent compromise: big and easy to find, but not confusing. Cruise-control settings get a separate stalk on the right side of the wheel. These work much better than the mercedes-benz stalk-mounted cruise control, which is too easily confused for the turn signals. the window switches are placed perfectly on the driver's door armrest, so when the left forearm lies flat, they the switches are right at the fingertips. Wipers and lights follow toyota's familiar pattern, with the light switch on the left, turn-signal stalk and wipers on the right. The moonroof switch is overhead, with garage-door buttons in the rearview mirror. Everything is positioned just as we like it. the avalon's dashboard is clean and straightforward, but not overly simplistic in its aesthetic appeal. Its so-called optitron gauges are large, back-lit with soft white and easy to read through smoked lenses. The switches are a bit more centralized than previously, and collected under a large lcd information display square in the center of the dash. It's not adversely affected by glaring sunlight. the primary temperature, air flow and fan adjustment controls are huge, located below the screen. They operate with a firm, steady action, and they're nearly impossible to miss when the driver reaches a hand from the steering wheel. A six-cd changer is standard in the avalon, along with bluetooth wireless connectivity and xm satellite radio hardware. The upgrade jbl audio package delivers 660 watts of output. Hard buttons on the left of the screen are used for audio functions, and more buttons for navigation and information to the right. There are also easy-to-find radial knobs for volume and tuning. The avalon's interface lets the driver work a complex range of systems with minimal divers.
