2010 Toyota Avalon Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2011 | 4dr Sedan 268-horsepower 3.5L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Heated seats are wonderful in winter. Dual zone heater/air conditioner a plus for driver/passenger comfort. Back-up camera is handy for checking what the mirrors don't pick up. Quiet, smooth engine/transmission. Comfortable seats are easily adjustable. Easy access and good leg-room in rear seats. see full Toyota Avalon review |

Seats are too short. Toyota seats are generally not comfortable, but for a car in this price range I would have expected better. see full Toyota Avalon review |

Not enough room for an adult in the rear seat. I am short and I still found the rear seat not really wide enough. see full Scion xD review |
