Visited my local dealer today & the sales Mgr. said there will be an all new 2010 Avalon in the showrooms Sept/Oct of this year. No details on the car, yet; but he said his onfo is straight from Toyota USA.

Well, I went to the Toyota dealer yesterday to ask when they were going to get in the new 2010 Prius (answer was late May/early June), and I also asked about other new non-Prius product launches, particularly hybrids. Turns out that the head salesguy at the dealer had just talked with the TMS Chicago Region rep, who had told him about three new Toyotas (2010/11 4Runner, Avalon/Avalon Hybrid, and Sienna/Sienna Hybrid). All will be launching in the fall (they were originally going to launch on the auto show circuit, but cost cuts in the auto biz, including at Toyota, put a halt to the plans). Anyway, here's a few details of the 2010/11 Avalon: -One trim level, like Venza, with choice of packages. Toyota wants to make Avalon more affordable to appeal to younger buyers. -Choice of 3.5L V6 for gas model or new Hybrid model with 3.5L V6 + 3G Hybrid Synergy Drive. (Hybrid should get lower-mid 30s MPG combined city/highway.) -Many Lexus-like features, like Lane Keep Assist and Intelligent Park Assist, along with a roomier interior. -Production starts at TMMK in the fall.

Speculating on Toyota's Japanese models as replacements for the Avalon is a lot of fun, but the reality is very different. The Avalon is a North America-only model, and probably doesn't have the sales volume that would justify its existence, except for one thing. It is manufactured at the same Georgetown Kentucky plant as the Camry, and there are procurement and manufacturing synergies that make the car worthwhile from a profit perspective. Any significant deviation from its Camry-derived platform and running gear would put the Avalon in an unsustainable market position.
