More than just a replacement for the Cressida, the Avalon was Toyota's entry into a new market segment when it debuted in early 1994 for the 1995 model year, after some unveiling on the March 1994 issue of Popular Mechanics magazine. This standard "full-size" sedan included a split bench front seat and room for six. It was aimed at cars like the Ford Crown Victoria, Chevrolet Caprice/Impala, Mercury Grand Marquis, Buick LeSabre and Oldsmobile Eighty Eight.
