I have a 2022 Lexus ES300h. I just drove to Maryland from Buffalo NY and back and got 44.5 MPG mostly cruising between 70 - 80MPH. In hot weather I've gotten 50 MPG. Awesome vehicle - fully loaded - a 6 hour drive doesn't even fatigue this 70 yr old driver. Plenty of power on the highway to merge into traffic. Handles great, rides great, best stereo available in a car. Worth every penny.

The Avalon was always the unsung hero. I know so many people that have Avalon’s between 2002 and 2010 and many of them are well over the 200,000 mile mark, with two of them over the 300,000 mile mark. What a great car. I know it’s basically a hopped up Camry, but Toyota was smart to make the Avalon for customers that didn’t want a Lexus.

We have a 2016 Avalon Limited V6 and it's the best car we've ever owned. No problems, very quiet, good power, and decent mileage.

My mom had a 95 Avalon with a bench seat and its still one of the best cars I've ever driven. It was so comfortable and rode like a dream.

Really gonna miss the Avalon. I've seen lots of footage of the new Toyota Crown, and it just doesn't cut it for me, the Avalon was a classy flagship.

Not sure if this is ever given enough props. To the people who take their vehicles to Scotty so he can teach US .. I thank you. I am sure so many more THANK YOU. I was going to see if he wanted to check my truck as 2 mechanics so far are stumped. But he went north :( I would have to wait until Summer for him to come back down.

I now avoid bigger wheels/low-profile tires like the plague. Setting aside the punctures and curb rash issues, I noticed lower-trim versions of cars consistently had better ride quality. Eventually confirmed my suspicion that it was the wheels/tires, after trying same-trim with different wheels.

Love it when Scotty is in a good mood and talking about a car he likes a lot. He waves his hands more and he bounces .

I have a 2016 Avalon Hybrid with 176,000 miles. The ONLY issue I’ve ever had with it was a wheel bearing gone bad, which was an easy and relatively cheap fix. It’s never given me any major issues and has always been a reliable car with just basic maintenance. They’re great cars!

Another great video Scotty. A lot of people think low aspect tires handle better but it's really just the opposite. The wider the sidewall the better the handling. Those eggcrate front grills might look neat but are impossible to clean. A simple horizontal or vertical slot design is a lot easier to maintain.

I’m driving a 2016 hybrid Avalon. Love it. Luxurious, very quiet, great ride, decent handling, amazing factory sound system, and respectably fast. I like the look-front grill is modern looking but more understated. It was this or a Camry. Great mileage-tad under 40 mpg. Teslas and these hybrids in sport mode-very fast off the line. Bought used-great way to get into these cars. Highly rated for reliability. I absolutely love this car. Understated elegance

The hybrid version is only $1-2000 more MSRP. That $14,000 difference is all trim and dealer markup.

I have a 2022 Lexus IS500 & 2022 Highlander but way back in the day my folks had a Avalon. Super reliable machine.

So true on the tires. First year I got 3 flats and I had insurance, Toyota replaced them all. That's like 1300 bucks right there. I popped a couple more times...but I've learned to avoid pot holes, etc. and this is on the Camry (newer 2018 low profile Hankooks). Handles great though!

I went to order a RAV 4, none available but there was a Venza that just came in. I bought it. After 3 months of ownership I really like it. Typical milage is 42MPG. Going up through the mountains in WV it gets 36 MPG at 74 MPH. I didnt plan on buying a Hybrid but really like it.

I have a 2013 Avalon with 74k miles. So far so good. My biggest regret is not forking over extra for the limited hybrid model. I have the XLE

a co-worker has a 2005 Avalon V6 with well over 300 thousand miles on it. It still runs like a top and gets 35 plus mpg. He does maintenance often and the only mechanical work has been brakes and struts. Its still a great car.

That is impressive MPGs for a big sedan. I’ve always liked the Avalon, my neighbor has one and loves it.

I got 2013 ES300h, 210k miles on it everything is original, only thing i have changed is the brake booster which was expensive! Lovely car

In June 2020, no one was buying cars, so I went online and asked for best price on a Avalon hybrid XLE. Had an offer on one with moon roof and 14-speaker JBL sound system. It was $6500 under MSRP. Best car I ever owned. Have got 53 mpg on short trips. Could have sold it for a profit in 2021.

I have been driving my first hybrid the past two months; a company car (BMW X3 xDrive 30e M Sport/ PHEV). Combined HP is just under 300HP. Most of the mileage is from the work commute, on roads with speeds between 30mph and 45mph, max. Range on electric is around 27 miles...but I live in a mountainous place with the office in the city (Lausanne, Switzerland), so plenty of opportunity to benefit from the kinetic recharge. I also recharge the battery to its full capacity every night. The commute is almost entirely done on the battery (to/from). The gas over here is pretty damn expensive...ranging from $8.30/gallon down to $7.30/gallon these past two months. I have topped off the gas tank every week and a half...spending around $15 to bring it back to full. Considering both weekend driving (some highway mileage) and the daily commute, I have saved around 85% in gas expenses these past two months. Considering electricity expenses, net savings is around 70% or about $350 per month in total. Would I own this as a personal vehicle...no. It's a BMW! Perfect company car, with its 4 year lease and full maintenance plan. However, if I were to take a mid-sized SUV as a personal vehicle, it would be the Toyota RAV4 PHEV. Similar size and better range. Cannot beat Toyota for reliability. I cannot imagine what the maintenance costs would be with the BMW in 5 to 6 years, but I assume it would be eye watering.

I have a 2021 Avalon XLE Hybrid. I have 20,000 miles on it. Nice comfortable riding car that gets 45 mpg in town. Glad I bought it. Doesn’t have low profile tires.

I have a 2011 Avalon with 123K miles. It looks, runs, and drives likes its new. In some ways it has that feeling like a heavy German car that is planted to the road and sails down the highway. But when you need it to it makes quick turns and emergency maneuvers without losing composure. And it’s quiet inside and the backseat legroom is enormous, like a town car. I get 22-24 city and 30+ highway. For the new model the XLE is the model to get or swap out the low pro tires/wheels. I test drove a XLE and fell in love. I’ll probably get one. The Hybrid MPG is real and amazing. Guys I know get 50+ in Hybrid Camry’s.

Scotty, you da man! I have a 2020 limited hybrid, after 50k miles on crappy California Roads.. I traded in the rim's for 17" wheels. Best thing I ever did, feels like a different car Thanks again!

Thank you for your continued knowledge scotty! I've learned alot watching all your videos!

2020 Camry Se 4 cyl, I have the slim tires. I live in PA which is notorious for bad road as well! But I have had 0 issues and have traveled from PA-SC multiple times. Maybe just lucky 🍀 but so far so good and great handling too! Really surprises me he pooped two tires in just 2 months!

Wow! A Scotty video that actually reflected the come on line. It may not be the first but it is a rarity. Thanks for the review.

My friend sold his 2015 ford fusion titanium, which was a very nice car, and upgraded to a 2021 avalon limited hybrid. Such a nice car, and as Scotty says, it is like a Lexus with Toyota branding on it. I’ve driven it a few times and it’s such a fast and smooth ride. It’s a shame to see it be discontinued but at least they went out on a high note.

I have a 2017 Hybrid Camry that is the best car I have ever owned, my parents liked it so much my dad bought the Avalon Hybrid and my mom got the Venza. They average over 50 mpg to work and my 2017 get like 44mpg. Toyota is definitely king of the Hybrids

Very true Scotty! You had me in stitches along the way during this review too. Thank You 😊

My 2014 Avalon Hybrid has 186,000 and no issues to date! Best car I have ever owned.

This is such a great car! So sad they are discontinuing it!

I like its (convenient for passing) “wide rear glass” visibility, which is nearly impossible to find these days!

Avalon’s in general are the best kept secret in the car industry. They’re as big and comfy as a Buick with the reliability of a Toyota. Usually have the JBL sound system in em too, really great cars and often about the same price a a similar used Camry.

I have an 03 Chevy Z24LS with factory wheels. The best compromise of tire aspect ratio for a daily driver. Only once in 100K miles has a tire blown out. 205/55R16 is agressive enough handling for a 2800lb car.

Very pleased with my Yaris Hybrid, UK £18k this year , I get between 60 to 72 mpg, where the gallon is 4.55 litres( tank to tank,) . I have the highest profile tyres I could get, so far no damage.

I bought a used 2005 avalon in 2013 with 85k miles. Now it has 150k miles and still runs like new. No major repairs! Replaced battery, tires and brakes, plus regular oil changes. That's it. And comfy as he'll! Also, 30mpg on the highway!

My wife has a 2019 Avalon XLE with the V6. She loves it and doesn't plan on getting rid of it.

Have a 2012 Toyota XLE with 210K+. No issues at all outside of basic routine maintenance and just wear of the leather interior. It’s a solid ride.

Most of that 14G was for the XSE trim, not the hybrid

I bought one of the last ones in Dallas I’m happy I did. 2022 Toyota Avalon, drives just like a Lexus ES350

Scotty you should talk about tires more. If you have loud road noise switch your tires out for what’s called a touring tire, you’d be amazed how much quieter the road noise is and gentler the car handles bumps.

I had a 1995 Avalon and it was the best ride! I'm now driving a 2009 Volvo that I bought to replace my 2010 Prius. Regretting the decision but getting a new car was not in the cards this year. Will think about this when we are in the marked to replace again most likely in 2024.

With gas approaching $7 in San Diego, I’m glad I got a Camry hybrid two years ago. Gets me 48 mpg in the real world and 52 if I drive like a grandma. I can only get 52 when there’s almost no cars on the road though because people around me regularly drive a good amount over the speed limit at all times.

I love the Avalon. I talked my best friend into buying a used one from the Toyota Dealership back in 2016. It is a 2014 Avalon Hybrid which is still going strong. Such a nice smooth ride. I always thought I would purchase one someday but we went with a 2022 RAV4 Hybrid instead. I do remember the first TV commercials for the Avalon back in 89-90. I liked them back then too.

I have an 02 RX300 with 298k miles and climbing, original drive train. My family has always been GM and Ford folks however a number of years ago, my brother, being the rebel he is....came home in a 2001 4runner. He still has it and now has 350k. That began the shift. We now have 4 Toyota/Lexus products in the family and that number is only going to grow.

Just bought the 2020 Avalon Pearl white with the glitter paint in it xse! Love it got it for 28,000 with 18,000 miles damn near brand new! Favorite car I’ve owned 301 hp and rides like a cloud

Scotty you are at your best here... great video..

Just got back from Houston, TX to Albuquerque, NM and got 45.5 mpg. on a 2021 Camry Hybrid. great cars, i agree Toyota has the hybrid game down.

Just drive from Nashville to Tampa to buy a 2022 Avalon hybrid exactly like this two days ago for the wife and love it

I owned a 2015 Avalon Limited hybrid. Put 130,000 miles on it. It was the best car I've ever owned. Got 38mpg all around. When I heard this was the last year Toyota was going to make this vehicle, I bought a 2022 in January. Now, this is the best car I've ever had. My experience has been around 44 mpg, all around, and I don't drive like my grandmother. I will drive this into the ground, or until I can get an SUV that gets 40+ mpg with all wheel drive here in MN.

Great review Scotty! It was pleasure meeting you sir. I like my beads noise lol 🤣

we luv our 2020 avalon V6...33MPG awesome car

I have a RX 450 and bought the wife the new UX both are hybrid. Apart from being excellent cars the customer service is the best i’ve experienced in 40yrs driving .

I have my 2019 Camry Hybrid LE..getting 53.5 Mpg!!...Love it!!! Not as fancy as the Avalon..but it's identical to the Avalon under the hood!!! Engines are the same!!..

Waiting to see what this crown does I kinda have a feeling it’s gonna be a step back.

Scotty! You always say to find a mechanic like me. But you are one of a kind!

I totally agree and hate they are discontinuing it and bringing the Crown whatsoever sedan to market. We have the Touring for me and Limited for my wife. This is our 3 Toyota and my kids are driving the last two.

I’m thinking of picking up a touring or a trd Avalon tomorrow! High hopes cause I’m dying to get the touring… haven’t test drove yet but I already know I’m going to love it

I’ve never been a hybrid fan but with gas prices as they are I might consider one for my next Toyota.

It’s time for the “huge non-functional grille” trend to die.

Feeling so relieved after seeing Scotty approves of Toyota Hybrid vehicles, just got a 22 Camry Hybrid and needed king Scotty’s approval 🙌🏻😎

Have a 2015 Avalon V6 love it no problems at all. RIP Avalon

I recently bought a 2018 hybrid toyota yaris and I love it! Toyota hybrids are definitely the best hybrid cars compared to everything else out there.

Gotta love toyota hybrids. Friend of mine has a 2012 Prius C (might be a 2011)with 190k, she still daily's it with no issues. I do have to say it was extremely slow when I drove it lol.

I had a 2014 avalon hybrid for a cpl years . I averaged about 41-44mpg. I have a fairly light foot. I could get from LA to Vegas and back on a tank. Didnt really seem any better in town city driving. I think it was better on road trips. Was a fun car to drive. Lots of power. Quiet. Smooth at high speeds. EV mode quits about 13mph And engine kicks onz Stereo system kind of sucked. Blue tooth never worked right. Heads up a replacement windshield is like $1000. Also scrape the bumper constantly. Waaay more comfortable than a Prius. Smoother and quieter. I'm a big dude. Prius is tight fit. Was a fun car. Sport mode the steering tightens.

When I test drove the Ford Fusion Hybrid, and Honda Accord hybrid - both were impressive, but on either I could not stand the low rolling resistance tires - these were supposed to be the best of the best - and yet the tires on both sucked - I would pull them off immediately and replace with better rubber.

"It's got a big trunk. You could put quite a lot of junk back here." 😅😅😅

Love the Avalon! So sad to see it go. I have a 2006 Avalon with 250K miles

I bought the 2019 Avalon Hybrid, the one thing I didn’t like was road noise from tires, , I bought a new set , much better. I wich I would have bought Michelin with the foam liner, but the only set Costco had was over a year old . My rims are the middle offered 18” . I’ve always been concerned about the shutoff. I never heard about tire blowouts ? Until now.? I paid $39,000 and now with gas in 2024 in Southern Utah is back to $4 a gallon I’m saving a lot of money. The car still looks brand new and worth $35,000

You are an information God! I brag about your channel to anyone who asks me anything about automobiles! I hope you live to be 1000!

The only issue I have with this video is………the gray roots😂

The question you should ask is do you want to spend the extra $14,000 now or over the next 10-15 years in the extra gas from the lower gas mileage. I doubt the hybrid would even save you $14k in gas over 10-15 years.

Hi Scotty, great information. Thinking about a used Avalon Hybrid. I heard the batterys last for ten years, is that about right? And is it expensive to replace?

Scotty, as a fellow Rhode Islander I completely agree with the assessment of RI having the worst roads in the country! Simply awful. It’s like the roads here are made out of Swiss cheese. I just blew out a shock last week because of a pothole in Providence!

Base trim level of Avalon gasoline is the best luxury car you can ever buy

I have a 2008 Acura RL-SHAWD....that I wouldn't trade for money or chalk. I'm 70 now, I hope it's my last car purchase. It's cat quick,all wheel drive, comfortable as hell, and you don't SEE one at every light. Old man heaven. 😎

Lol! They put paddle "shifters" in an eCVT. They might well just be connected to speakers to make "vroom" sounds.

I have a 2000 Avalon, had a 2008 Avalon - Daughter Totalled it. , 2014 Hybrid with 125k on it, and Just bought a 2022 Hybrid when Toyota discontinued it.They are pretty hard to find these days. The New Crown may have some cool new technology BUT it does not look nearly as good to me as my 2022. Absolutely love Avalons !

That’s a beautiful car, shame they stopped making them.

Great shows Scotty, really enjoy your productions. FYI the 2022 Avalon 3.5L is 6 sec quarter mile. The 2022 Avalon Hybrid is 6.5 to 7+ seconds. I have a 2020 Avalon Touring 3.5L, get about 30sih mpg when my foot is tame. Had a 17 Camry Hybrid, which seemed to keep out accellerate many cars with the CVT. Good car but went back to convential engines for fear of failing technology. Love my Avalon Touring though. Sizable but fun care to drive. Wont touch anything but Toyota, but I service my cars myself. Developed trust issues wth dealer service.... Take care! MP

My diesel 1.6 diesel Vauxhall Astra gives my 65mpg With mixed driving and also has a lot of Torque so I will be sticking with it for some time

Scotty I’m enjoying all of your video’s they’re educational and interesting. Thank you very much for your efforts. My question for you what do you think about the new 2024 Lexus Rx350 vs Rx450h I would like to hear your thought before I buy by the way I need it for airport limousine. Thanks

Scotty, our 2019 Camry SE 4-cyl non-hybrid gets about 27 mpg city, 43 hwy. 203 HP, not a race car but plenty of power for normal driving.

Scotty had to postponed the yard work to make a car review haha

The Porsche 919 Evo is a 4 cyl hybrid and it absolutely destroyed the Nurburgring, I love that video

I bought the v6 touring with the exact same color combination. Don't miss the bmw.

Hi, Scotty, Toyota proven reliability what more can I say.

I owned a 1961 Austin Mini. The engine was modified with dual carbs, headers, ported and relieved cylinder head with a 4 speed trans. I was able to get 52 mpg. Don't talk to me about good fuel mileage.

I have a gorgeous blue on tan 2007 lexus ES 350 that looks new drives like new and has 320k miles...it's crazy how it's even possible. I've spent less than 1200 in repairs over the years. Same water pump alternator ac compressor no leaks, drive it daily in my home inspection business. 30 mpg on the highway too.

I have a 13 Avalon. Great car. I’ll keep this one in mind for my next car. When I can get it for $20k of course lol

I'm just seeing Scotty reviewing a brand new car for the first time

Another W Scotty. Thank u for the fun review & morn laughs ❤

I have a 2014 Toyota avalon hybrid with 120K miles. ZERO problems. 39 mpg original brakes. Most reliable car I have ever owned. Only issue I have is the touch screen is not readable in daylight because of glare. I hate capacitive touch buttons. barely touch them and it engages them. Seats are not comfortable for taller people. But the trunk is huge. It has over 500 miles range. I would recommend the toyota avalon to anyone. I will keep it for the next 10 years at least. Recently bought a Tesla Model Y Performance. Best car I have ever owned. I absolutely love that car. Seats are comfortable. Touch screen is huge and quite visible in sunlight. Full Self Driving is getting Crazy good. The smart phone app is great and charging in my garage is so much cheaper per mile than Gasoline that I am never going back to gasoline in future car choices.

Hey Scotty keep the videos coming!!

1 last thing, the V6 Avalon is roughly 1.5-2.0 seconds quicker to 60 mph vs the hybrid Avalon. The V6 is quicker than the hybrid model.

In early 2019 Toyota was handing out impressive rebates on the Avalon. I test drove one and immediately hated it. I held out six months for the 2019 Highland, got the same rebate and love it.

Love those things. Love the engine, Size, parts, everything.

I dont understand why Toyota has this fascination in making ugly looking front grills.
