Overview

The full-size Avalon is Toyota’s flagship sedan. Slotted above the popular Camry but sitting below Toyota’s more luxurious Lexus lineup, the Avalon underwent a major redesign in 2013 and a significant facelift in 2016. Now, the Avalon carries into 2017 mostly unchanged.
The one major update to the 2017 Toyota Avalon involves active safety. Previously, only the upscale Limited trim offered automatic emergency braking—which can automatically stop or slow the car to prevent a collision. For 2017, Toyota is making this feature and others standard across all trims on nearly all vehicles. All Avalons now get Toyota Safety Sense P (TSS-P), which includes four safety systems: pre-collision braking with pedestrian detection, lane-departure alert with steering assist, automatic high-beam headlights, and dynamic radar cruise control.
The Avalon is the same width and height as a Camry, but four inches longer. Buyers can choose from either a 269-hp 3.5-liter gasoline-only engine or a hybrid drivetrain that combines a 4-cylinder engine, a 650V permanent-magnet AC synchronous electric motor, and a 244.8V Ni-MH battery for a net output of 200 hp.
Even though the Avalon is designed more for cruising than racing, either engine choice can get the big car out of its own way in a hurry.
Both conventional and hybrid Avalons come in various trim levels, ranging from the well-equipped XLE to the top-of-the-line Limited. All XLE and Limited Avalons come with a suspension that’s tuned for comfort, while the Touring has a suspension that gives the driver a bit more road feel.
The opening price-point XLE comes standard with leather seats (heated for the driver and front passenger), a leather steering wheel, push-button start, and 17-inch wheels. While this trim level doesn’t come with navigation, the XLE’s version of the Toyota Entune infotainment system does connect to a driver’s phone to offer app-based navigation. Instead of relying on a built-in setup, it uses the phone’s GPS and data connection. Be warned: Toyota vehicles don’t work with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
The 2016 Toyota Avalon XLE starts at an MSRP of $32,650. Though pricing hasn’t been announced for 2017, we don’t expect any major changes.
The XLE Plus sells for $34,400 and adds a moonroof and an auto-dimming mirror with a HomeLink-compatible garage door opener. The XLE Plus Hybrid starts at $36,650 and is similarly equipped.
The XLE Premium gets some added technology: built-in navigation, an upgraded sound system, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, a memory driver’s seat and mirrors, and a wireless phone charger in the center console. It starts at $35,850, while the XLE Premium Hybrid starts at $38,100.
Step up to the gasoline-only Touring trim (MSRP $37,050) and you get LED headlights, 18-inch wheels, and slightly less cushy handling.
Finally, the range-topping Limited offers heated and cooled front seats, tri-zone climate control, and a power rear sunshade. A gas-powered Limited will set you back $40,050, while a Limited Hybrid goes for $41,950.
Compared to the conventional trims, which get 21 mpg city/31 highway/24 combined, the hybrids promise 40/39/40 and offer a mile’s worth of electric-only driving. There is one caveat: the back seats don’t fold down, which makes the cavernous trunk a bit less useful.
Regardless of which Avalon you choose, you’ll get a traditional sedan with modern technology and old-fashioned comfort, all for thousands less than a similarly equipped Lexus.

We already have a 2006 Toyota Avalon and love everything about it. This particular model is and XLE, I think, and we have the Touring version. Both are exceptionally nice. I would recommend it to anyone in the market for a used car.

Yes — 4.5/5 is a strong user rating for this model year, which points to broad owner satisfaction.
That kind of feedback suggests you can shop with confidence if the car’s condition and history check out. 30.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals, so there are still worthwhile opportunities in the market.
Is the 2017 Toyota Avalon reliable?
Owners rate it 4.5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
For used buyers, that usually means the bigger risk is less about reputation and more about how well a specific car was maintained over time. A careful inspection and service-history review matter most when you narrow down a candidate.
What should I look for when buying a used 2017 Toyota Avalon?
At 58% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should run a vehicle history report on any serious contender and confirm whether any reported damage was repaired properly. Put inspection priority on bodywork, alignment, and signs of uneven wear, since those can reveal past issues that photos may not show. Focus on overall condition and maintenance records, because a clean, well-kept example is likely to be the better buy.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2017 Toyota Avalon?
This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you have room to shop carefully without rushing.
- Deal availability: 30.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 276 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 3.81% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 58.0% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $17,202, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2017 Toyota Avalon's resale value?
The current average of $18,179 sits slightly below last year's $18,900.
That tells you the market has eased a bit, which can matter if you plan to sell in the near future. A softer price trend can reduce your upside, but it can also make the car easier to buy at a fair entry point today. If you keep mileage reasonable and maintenance documented, you can help protect value when it’s time to move on.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2017 Toyota Avalon or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2017 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2017 if:
- 30.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 58% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 3.81% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2016 if:
- At $16,846, the 2016 costs less than the current year's $18,179 average.
- It offers a refreshed design and a more balanced driving feel.
The bottom line: You should lean toward the 2017 if you want the stronger current-market mix of pricing, inventory, and owner satisfaction. If your priority is saving money upfront, the 2016 is the better value play, especially if you find one with a clean history and solid maintenance records.
