Advice Me On Toyota Avalon 2001 by cyan2008(m): 9:37pm On Jul 14, 2013
I want to get a Toyota, and my choice has been Toyota Avalon.
Can someone advice me on the pros and cons of having the car.

Is the maintenance affordable,etc?

I need the contribution of those who, perhaps have used the car

The 2001 Toyota Avalon comes in standard with a 3.0-liter, 210 horsepower V6 engine. The XL is nicely equipped, including cruise control, antilock breaks, and a number of other comfort features upgraded sound system, alloy wheels, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. Fuel efficiency is very ok.
Drivers love the 2001 Avalon for its extremely
comfortable ride and excellent handling. Many
owners compare the Avalon to a luxury brand
car like the Lexus. Drivers also like the wide
array of available options and the spacious
interior. Complaints are mostly minimal and/or
cosmetic, with many finding the Avalon to have
bland styling both inside and out.

I currently use a toyota avalon 2001 model and the car is rock solid.it has a lot of luxury feautures that the camry do not havce.its a v6 engine,fuel efficiency is very good for a v6 engine.it can come with a 15 inches alloyed wheels or a 16 inches wheels.mine came with a 16 inches.its parts are almost same price with camry parts.its a much stronger car than the camry.the chasis are reinforced,so also with its parts.toyota mechanics may not see you frequently cos the av alon does not de velope faults easily.its electonic wizardry is top notch.the avalon is toyota flagship sedan and can never be compared to any toyota sedan.the 2001 model avalon uses the same engine with the toyota sienna,lexus ES300 and it can only be compared to a lexus.Drive it and you will hate the camry. quote author=cyan2008]I want to get a Toyota. , and my choice has been Toyota Avalon.

stories, how many km per litre do you get on highway and city?
Re: Advice Me On Toyota Avalon 2001 by RollingFella(m): 5:29pm On Jul 27, 2013
To begin with, how do you classify cars that consume fuel and ones that don't. Let's try to be more technical. edmunds.com will tell you 19/27 mpg for city/highway, while cars.com will tell you 21/29mpg for city/highway. But I will like your own personal assessment based the usage of the car.

You are on point. A lot of people has never driven an avalon and just base their judgement of the avalon cos its a V6 engine. The avalon engine is one of the most fuel efficient engines ever produced by toyota. The 2000-2004 model Avalon engine is used by the Sienna, lexus ES300 while the 2005 model upwards shares the same engine with camry 2007 XLE V6,2006 Rav4 and also lexus ES models of that particular year. Nobody should drive a camry untill after a test drive with the avalon.
