Overview & Reviews

Toyota has tinkered with the options packages, but otherwise left the Avalon alone. A new luxury package for the XL includes power leather-trimmed seats, 15-inch alloy wheels, remote keyless entry and a JBL audio system. There's also a Sport Luxury package that adds 16-inch alloy wheels and a rear spoiler in addition to the items in the luxury package.

• Lexus-like quality, smooth V6 engine, huge rear seat.

• High price tag, funky dash design, toothy chrome grille.

  I absolutely love it! - 2002 Toyota Avalon
  By Jan Gates - March 2 - 7:03 am

  I have never enjoyed driving, owning, sitting in, riding in or traveling in any vehicle as much as I have enjoyed my Avalon. The dealership has tried but have yet to be successful in convincing me to trade it in because nothing seems better. Our friends always want us to drive and we usually agree because its so comfortable.

  Try It - 2002 Toyota Avalon
  By PC Charger - February 24 - 2:00 am

  Traded Infinity G20 for Avalon. At the outset, felt the difference, in the ride, entrance and exit factors, comfort, accommodations, fuel efficiency was even better than the G20. The interior of the cabin and the trunk space was tremendous. May not be the best in outward looks, but I dont think any one would steal this car. Try it, you might like it and buy it.

  Cant part with it - 2002 Toyota Avalon
  By Florida Owner - February 6 - 11:40 pm

  The test drive was the best selling point. I also like the fact that I can use regular gas in a car that drives like a high performance car. The rear seat is as comfortable as the front seat so my visiting family members who are tall appreciate the comfort. The ride is as smooth as glass. Always use the Michelin tires, I tried a cheaper brand and didnt care for the change in handling. Took them off and went back to the Michelins.

  So Far So Good - 2002 Toyota Avalon
  By LaoZheng - October 31 - 10:00 am

  Never liked to deal with the Toyota Dealers. But for the sake of getting this car, I still needed to go there. The interior room, quietness, and comfort make it a great family car, as long my three teenage children remain peaceful in the backseat.

  Great car - 2002 Toyota Avalon
  By Geo Baca - October 31 - 10:00 am

  The car is super, feels great on the interstate and around the city. The car has many confort features that come in handy on a long trip. It handles far better then any other car I have ever had, which includes a 2000 Camry with all the options you can get. Its fun to drive. I love it.

  Best Car Ever? - 2002 Toyota Avalon
  By dave - October 4 - 5:36 pm

  I have the bench seat version which I highly recommend if you want even more space. I have over 134,000 miles on this car and have driven it for almost 6 years. No problems. None. Lucky me but I do take incredible care of this car. I love this car, probably why I take such good care of it. Elegant but for the price it was the best out there. So roomy and quiet and I love the styling. I didnt want to pay the Lexus price, you could say it is the poor mans Lexus but you dont cheat yourself. When Toyota redesigned the Avalon they screwed up big. This car is better than the new models for the price you will pay. Smooth to drive. I will keep this car as long as humanly possible.

  Avalon XLS - 2002 Toyota Avalon
  By warwick - September 9 - 3:13 pm

  We needed a little more room so the Avalon was the one for us. We are happy with the car but if I could a little more pick-up would be nice. The brake could be better but it is not a huge problem. There was a problem with the brakes after 2500 miles,the dealer resurfaced the rotors which fixed the problem. I expected the rotors to be replaced but the dealer said it was Toyota policy to repair. Well I sent an E-mail to the company and nothing came of it.

  What a car! - 2002 Toyota Avalon
  By June - July 14 - 10:00 am

  This is my third Toyota, bought because of the reliability of the prior two. This car is a dream of comfort and luxury. Quiet, smooth, comfortable, beautiful. And of course, that famous and well deserved reputation for reliability. I waited years to get a car like this, and it was worth the wait.
