“The ride is comfortable and although handling isn’t that agile, it is ultimately secure.”Consumer Reports

“While the 2011 Toyota Avalon looks like a cushy luxury cruiser, it can perform—at least on the straight. The 3.5-liter V-6 puts out 268 horsepower with a little more pronounced sound than an Avalon ever has, and feeds it out to the front wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission.”The Car Connection

“The 2011 Avalon reprises its powertrain from the 2010 version. Its sole engine is a 268-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 that teams with a 6-speed automatic transmission.”Consumer Guide

“A bit expensive for its class, refined nature leaves little room for flair or personality, rear seats do not fold.”Edmunds
