Toyota Avalon Engines and Transmissions

Toyota Avalon engine choices cover two very different characters. The 3.5 AT combines a gasoline unit with a conventional automatic and front-wheel drive, favoring effortless highway pace. The 2.5 CVT hybrid powertrain instead uses a variable transmission, which smooths out town driving and helps keep fuel consumption down.

Toyota Avalon Trims and Equipment

Toyota Avalon trim levels sit on top of a technical version rather than changing it. The 2.5 CVT hybrid, for instance, appears as Premium and Touring, so two cars can share the same drivetrain while differing in cabin materials, wheels and convenience equipment. Check each listing individually.

Toyota Avalon Battery

Toyota Avalon battery capacity matters less than how the system behaves day to day. The 2.5 CVT hybrid keeps its lithium-ion battery charged through the engine and regenerative braking, so you never plug it in. The stored energy supports quiet electric running at low speeds and during restarts.
