This third-generation Toyota Avalon was launched as a 2005 model and carries into 2006 unchanged. It projects more character and looks more contemporary than the previous generation yet the actual changes were subtle.

This latest Avalon features a wider, longer stance than before and the overall length is five inches longer. That additional length is especially apparent from the rear, where a tall deck, large tail lamps and dual exhaust outlets suggest an expensive touring sedan. The handsome rear deck line remains undisturbed by a wing, except in the Touring grade, which mounts a rear lip spoiler consistent with its sporty wheels and brighter accents.

The front of the Avalon is dominated by a horizontal grille with chrome-accented bars, and a wide lower intake valence calling attention to its greater width. The lines created by the valence are extended by use of fog lamps on the Touring, XLS and Limited models.

At first glance, Avalon appears as an elegant, if unassuming, sedan. A second glance and it looks sleek, powerful, and advanced.
