By: Funk's Toyota   |   07 May 2018

If you are shopping for a new vehicle this year but holding out for something special, consider this your cue to make a move, because the 2018 Avalon is everything a modern vehicle should be and more. Here we will look at just a few of the many highlights of this head-turning Toyota.

  1. Pure power

Backed by a 3.5L V6 engine paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, the all-new Avalon has the power you want and the response you need every time you put your foot down. This powerful ride not only showcases dual variable valve timing with intelligence, it generates up to 268 horsepower and 248 lb/ft. of torque. 

  1. Next-level efficiency

Unlike some other vehicles, the Avalon’s power doesn’t come at the expense of efficiency; in fact, you can expect to be filling up a lot less often. This eco-friendly Toyota requires just 11.4L/100km in the city and 7.7L/100km on the highway, which means that you can afford to go adventuring all summer long.

  1. High Tech Display Audio

In this ultra-modern vehicle you’ll have the latest high tech features at your fingertips, starting with a Display Audio System that includes Bluetooth functionality, a 6.95” touchscreen, and user-friendly audio streaming. Furthermore, you get integrated satellite radio, navigation with advanced voice recognition, and cutting-edge email and text-to-speech capabilities.

  1. Luxurious seats

The new Avalon makes it easy to relax and get comfortable by offering a driver seat that is both heated and 8-way power adjustable, as well as a front passenger seat that offers 4-way power adjustability. The Limited Edition Avalon goes even further, providing 10-way power adjustability for the driver, 8-way power adjustability for the front passenger, and heated seats for everyone on board.

  1. Wireless charging

Keeping your many devices powered up no longer requires a jumble of cords, because the 2018 Avalon offers Qi-compatible Wireless Smartphone Charging as a standard feature on all Limited Edition models. Just place any compatible device on the non-slip charging pad and it will power up automatically while you drive.

  1. Full spectrum safety

Every inch of the Avalon has been designed with your safety and protection in mind, from the suite of 10 strategically positioned airbags and Anti-Lock Brake System to the Smart Stop Technology and Vehicle Stability Control. This remarkable ride also boasts the Toyota Safety Sense P system, with features including Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Automatic High Beams, and a Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection.

  1. Smart Key System

Getting in and going has never been faster or easier, because in an Avalon you just need to have your keys in your purse or pocket and it will unlock automatically the moment you touch the handle. Better yet, simply press the Push Button Start when you step inside and your ride will roar to life, which means you’ll never again need to waste time fumbling for your keys.
