2006 Toyota Avalon Touring










The 2005 Avalon is a complete redesign from the previous generations. It is Toyota's largest, most luxurious, and most expensive sedan model sold under its own nameplate. The Avalon features a 3.5 L 280 hp V6 engine and myriad advanced technological features (2GR-FE). The engine is as in previous generation shared with Lexus ES350. The new Avalon, introduced to the public at the 2005 North American International Auto Show, offers more distinctive styling than previous generations, which were known for their conservative styling. This redesign also dropped the availabilty of a front bench seat. The current Avalon is available in XL, Touring, XLS, and Limited trim levels.

Due to new SAE specifications power has dropped to 268 hp and torque has dropped to 248 ft·lbf. for the 2006 model year. Stability control is also expanded to the XL and Touring models, and a keyless remote start is standard for Limited models.
