5 reasons to buy the 2022 Toyota Avalon Hybrid
1. Hybrid powertrain
If you are looking for a premium full-size sedan with the latest hybrid technology, look no further. The 2022 Avalon Hybrid delivers an impressive EPA-estimated 43 city and 44 highway mpg on the base XLE trim and 43/43 mpg on other trims.
That means fewer trips to the pump on your next epic vacation, or if you deal with a long work commute.2. Upscale interior
Having a hybrid sedan doesn't mean you have to sacrifice comfort. Even the base XLE has SofTex® simulated leather upholstery with heated front seats and more. Move up to the top-spec Limited model and you'll get upgrades like wood trim, ambient lighting, full leather seating, ventilated front seats, and even heated rear seats. The 2022 Avalon Hybrid is quite a welcoming place to start your daily commute.
3. Cool trim options
The 2022 Avalon isn't a stodgy sedan, particularly if you opt for the XSE Nightshade trim. The sporty Avalon Hybrid substitutes a cool blacked-out theme across the exterior and interior. Outside you'll get larger 19-inch dark, painted wheels, a black grille, plus black mirror housings, spoiler, and badging. Inside you'll find sporty touches like paddle shifters, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, aluminum trim, and more.
4. Big sedan space
If you are looking for more space for family or friends (or both), the 2022 Avalon Hybrid delivers full-size sedan space in an attractive package. With 16 cu-ft of space in the trunk, you can rely on the Avalon for a big trip to the grocery store. The rear seats also fold to allow you to carry longer items as well. And with seating for five and generous interior dimensions, you can rely on the Avalon to be a great road trip companion.
5. The latest tech
Not only does the 2022 Avalon Hybrid have a nicely sized standard nine-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™—there are also plenty of USB ports and an optional wireless charging pad to help keep passengers connected. On the driver-assist front, the Avalon Hybrid has standard tech, like collision mitigation with pedestrian detection, lane-keeping assistance, adaptive cruise control, and more.
