Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The 2021 Ford Escape Plug-In Hybrid is an all-new variant of the recently redesigned Ford Escape.

Pros
Long all-electric range of an EPA-estimated 37 miles
Roomy and comfortable seating
Easy-to-use controls

Cons
No all-wheel-drive option
Slightly less cargo and rear-seat space than standard Escape

By:

For the shrinking number of people buying large sedans, the Avalon will do quite nicely.

Pros
Efficient powertrains,
huge trunk space,
long list of standard features.

Cons
Polarizing exterior,
bland-looking infotainment interface,
all-wheel drive only offered on two trims.

By:

The 2020 Toyota Avalon works best as a stylish, comfortable cruiser, and not as a wannabe sports sedan.

Pros
Stylish lines, mostly
Comfortable cruiser
Commendable hybrid
Well-equipped
Spacious back seat

Cons
Does it really need to be sporty?
Overwrought styling at times
Poor V-6 mpg
Can get expensive
