2019 Avalon Information
2019 Toyota Avalon
Effortless Sophistication, Style and Exhilaration
The roads of Avalon, the mystical paradise that inspired Toyota’s flagship nameplate, have likely never seen a mid-premium sedan like this. Underpinned by a Toyota New Global Architecture platform, and powered by a fuel-efficient 3.5-liter V6 or Toyota Hybrid System powertrain, the 2019 Toyota Avalon embodies consumers’ overarching desire for high-caliber, design-centric, technologically-savvy modes of attainable, premium transportation.
To its menu, the 2019 Avalon mixes a bevy of Toyota-firsts such as standard Apple CarPlay and Dynamic Auxiliary Turn Signals, available authentic Yamaha wood and aluminum cabin accents, and Engine Sound Enhancement. In addition, drivers will appreciate the standard passive and active safety benefits through Toyota Safety Sense P (TSS-P), as well as athletic handling thanks to its available Adaptive Variable Suspension, also a Toyota first, that, quite positively, has Avalon out-performing its peers.
Bar, you’ve just been raised.
Technical Beauty
A wealth of Calty signature elements cocoons Avalon’s long, low-slung musculature. Its expressive looks diligently reflect the mixture of all-encompassing, performance-focused personality, the invigorating driver experience, and premium, spacious image.
Because this fifth generation 2019 Avalon has an adaptable TNGA core, the Calty Design team was able to make Avalon’s exterior longer, lower and wider than before. Unique, never-before-accomplished stamping methods also aided in the deep draw panels that express distinguishable sculpted forms.
Avalon’s dimensions echo the seductive physiques of high-dollar premium vehicles. Its cabin, however, keeps it characteristic low-profile heritage by extending the rear cabin farther by another 7 inches. The numerous other adjustments made to the 2019 Avalon’s further emphasize its premium aura and sporty stature.
Enlightening Lighting
The 2019 Avalon’s available LED Vision Tech headlamps are the most advanced lighting realized by Toyota. The slim headlights utilized by the XLE and XSE grades utilize a cluster of three reflectors for Daytime Running Lights and low-and high-beam functions, providing exceptional light disbursement in an array of situations, including foul, low-visibility weather.
For the Limited and Touring, each headlamp is comprised of thing lighting modules - one for low beam, another for high - plus, an Adaptive LED Cornering lamp and Dynamic Auxiliary Turn Signal. Each is a Toyota first. The innovative cornering lamps enhance visibility around corners and curves during low- and high-speed maneuvers, as well as when changing lanes or when reversing. The lamp fades in and out for seamless activations and transitions, and adds 60 percent more foreground width to the low beams’s pattern. The Dynamic Auxiliary Turn Signal provides an added degree of noticeable visibility by activating each auxiliary diode in sequential fashion, rather than all on, all off.
Another Toyota first intersects with trifecta of lighting elements within the headlamp: Signature DRL and Parking Light with Technical Laser Ablation. The technology allows light to transmit through its transparent areas encased by a laser-ablated, metabolized inner lens. Laser ablation create a specialized texture by way of intricate patterning.
Mega Multimedia
A JBL performance audio system is standard on Limited and Touring grades and is available on XLE and XSE grades. XLE and XSE passengers can listen to crisp tunes on a standard 8-speaker system having Entune 3.0 Audio Plus with Connected Navigation Scout GPS Link App and Entune 3.0 App Suite Connect, featuring new in-vehicle third-party applications. Apple CarPlay is standard on all grades.
The 2019 Avalon’s new 9-inch capacitive touchscreen can be pinched and flicked, just like personal mobile devices – perfect for pinpointing your favorite pizza joint. Its refresh rate is quicker, its voice recognition is more perceptive, and it better recognizes users’ gestures.
Avalon will also feature Toyota’s first integration of smartwatch or Amazon Alexa-enabled device connectivity, as part of Toyota Remote Connect. This innovative connection allows drivers to lock/unlock their doors, start their engine, or check their fuel level, all from the convenience of their smartwatch or Amazon Alexa-enabled device. It’s voice controllable too, and compatible with select Android or Apple devices. Toyota is among the first automakers to feature Amazon-enabled device connectivity capable of executing home-to-car and car-to-home interactions.
Avalon Hybrid: The Most Fuel Efficient Avalon Ever
A new TNGA 2.5-liter four-cylinder Dynamic Force Engine is more fuel efficient, runs cleaner, and is more powerful than previous iterations, and excels at dissipating thermal inefficiencies. Doing it all took the implementation of Toyota’s vast catalog of advanced engine technologies including Dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence, Direct injection 4-stroke engine Superior version, a longer stroke and high compression ratio and more.
This new efficient engine is married to an all-new Toyota Hybrid System II powertrain that’s been engineered to inspire both spirited driving and fuel consciousness. This new system uses two electric motors to supplement the charging of the hybrid system’s Nickel-Metal Hydride battery back. For 2019, this highly compact battery back now resides under the rear passenger seat instead of the truck.
Auto Glide Control, yet another one of Avalon’s fuel-saving technologies calculates efficient coasting. When driving normally, engine braking will slow the vehicle down when the driver lifts off of the accelerator. However, to avoid aggressive engine braking, AGC limits the loss of vehicle speed through an automatic drive setting that acts more like a neutral gear, allowing the vehicle to coast to the stoplight. A light indicating “AGC” is illumined on the Multi-Information Display when AGC is active to alert the driver that less deceleration torque than normal is currently being used. AGC can only be activated when the vehicle is being operated in ECO drive mode.
World Class Acoustics
The 2019 Avalon’s refined acoustic repertoire spans both inside and out. Through Sport+, passengers receive a concerto of exciting, natural sounds through a exhaust system with sport modified baffles, an Intake Sound Generator, Active Noise Control, and Engine Sound Enhancement. For all its added energetic vocalization, Avalon never ceases to deliver a civilized, library-quiet interior, if desired. Road noise and engine droning have been culled while cruising quietness and engine sound have been improved.
Top Toyota Safety Tech
Avalon’s standard Toyota Safety Sense P (TSS-P) suite of safety systems and technologies represents one step closer to achieving Toyota Motor Corporation’s ultimate goal of zero casualties from traffic accidents.
TSS-P bundles cutting edge active safety technologies including Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist; and Automatic High Beams. Additional standard safety technology includes Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Back Guide Monitor.
Also available are Panoramic View Monitor with Alert and Intelligent Clearance Sonar, which now includes a Rear Cross Traffic Braking system.
All 2019 Avalons have 10 standard airbags and Toyota’s Star Safety System, which includes Enhanced Vehicle Stability Control, Traction Control, Electronic Brake-force Distribution, Brake Assist, Anti-lock Braking System, and Smart Stop Technology. All Avalons also come equipped with a standard backup camera.
