In generations past the Toyota Avalon was known for being even blander than the most beige Camry; it was a heavy dose of NyQuil swathed in a dowdy three-box wrapper that could push the strongest insomniac deep into REM territory. But with its last redesign the car gained some real style and vastly improved dynamics. Toyota made the car much more appealing and feature laden without totally alienating traditional buyers. According to ALG, practically “nonexistent” incentives were a big help, too.
