2021 Toyota Avalon XSE Nightshade Specs

2021 Toyota Avalon Review Toyota Avalon XSE Nightshade For Sale

The new-for-2021 XSE Nightshade Edition is essentially an appearance package of the XLE with just a few more features. On the outside, its blacked-out grille, side-view mirrors, and its 19-inch black-painted alloy wheels differentiate it from the rest of the lineup. It’s outfitted with a more fanciful premium leather-clad steering wheel with paddle shifters as well as with SofTex seating upholstery with Ultrasuede inserts and perforation. The cabin is modified with genuine aluminum dash and door panel trim and pedal covers. Finally, it also comes installed with a Qi-wireless smartphone charging pad. Unfortunately, the XSE Nightshade Edition is not available with the new 2.5-liter engine and AWD setup.
