The Toyota Avalon has carved out a couple of interesting spaces inside of its manufacturer’s lineup and the automotive industry as a whole. It is obviously built with the same care that the rest of the Toyota roster offers, but it also adds the kind of performance as well as a list of standard and available features that have almost exclusively been the providence of luxury brands. A comparison of the 2020 Toyota Avalon vs. 2020 Acura TLX will help Serra Toyota customers learn just how strongly the Avalon is positioned in its class. A high-altitude view of the two 2020 sedans will reveal that the Avalon has a performance advantage across the board over its Acura rival that also delivers very strong fuel economy scores.

Anyone who considers themselves tech-savvy will want to pay close attention to the 2020 Toyota Avalon. Serra Toyota customers can pick any version of the 2020 Avalon available at our showroom and it will be equipped with a smartphone-compatible infotainment system that will offer access to the Apple CarPlay® suites of applications and integration with Amazon Alexa. The 2020 TLX has a similar capability available with its infotainment system but it does not work with an owner’s Alexa digital home assistant. While being able to safely use a smartphone during a drive is important to modern vehicle owners, Toyota has gone a step or two further than Acura. All 2020 Toyota Avalon models at Serra Toyota will have a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot equipped that can support several devices at once. The 2020 TLX does not offer this capability on any of its three trim grades.
All trim grades of the 2020 Toyota Avalon use same powertrain. A naturally aspirated 3.5-liter, V-6 engine that is attached to an eight-speed automatic transmission. It will produce 301 horsepower and 267 pound-feet of torque. Buyers choosing the XLE model will be able to achieve Environmental Protection Agency fuel economy scores of up to 22 miles per gallon in the city and 32 miles per gallon on the highway. The rest of the 2020 Avalon lineup will be able to record up to 22 miles per gallon in the city and 31 miles per gallon on the highway. People who take the 2020 Acura TLX home will have a four-cylinder and a V-6 engine to choose from. Neither of them will make as much power as the lone engine equipped with the 2020 Avalon. Even though the 2020 Avalon makes more horsepower, it is able to offer nearly identical fuel economy scores as what the TLX produces.
