I do have a solution for you, however we do not currently have a single bike trunk-mount rack available that is confirmed to fit your 2017 Toyota Avalon.
For a cost-efficient but sturdy 2-bike trunk rack, I recommend looking at theSaris Bones 2 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms # SA805BL. This is an easy-to-use carrier that will hold 1 or 2 bikes at 35 pounds each. I recommend adding a cable lock like the etrailer.com # e98891 to secure your bike to the carrier and the Thule Passive Security Strap # TH533 that will secure the rack to your Toyota Avalon.
If the bike you will be transporting is a children's, woman's or alternative frame model, an adapter bar like the Hollywood Racks # HRBA-PRO may be needed. This will provide a horizontal attachment point for level transport and improved ground clearance. I have attached a video demonstration on this product so you can see exactly how it works and why it might be necessary.
