Reviews Summary | |
Reviews SummaryThe 2021 Toyota Avalon serves a simple function. It bridges the price gap between the Toyota Camry and the Lexus ES. In fact, the Avalon and the Lexus are essentially the same cars, the latter offering a greater degree of refinement and a more appealing design. Otherwise, there isn’t a reason for the Avalon to exist in a world gone mad for SUVs. And that’s especially true when a certified pre-owned Lexus ES that’s just a year or two old costs less than the new Toyota. | |
