The 2020 Toyota Avalon TRD is a very strange sport sedan. Today I'm reviewing the Avalon TRD, and I'm going to show you all the weird quirks and features of one of the strangest sport sedans on the market. I'm also driving the Avalon TRD, and I'm going to show you what it's like to drive the 2020 Avalon TRD.

This will be some 18 year-old's pride and joy in about 15 years.
Needs bigger grill and spoilers!
@@brendancarlson1678 They can be bolted on after he gets it, make it a "project car."
this was me. My first car was a 98 Avalon I purchased off my parents when they bought their new car haha. put a good amount of work into it to style it up/upgrade the tech, and I really made it my own. Great first car.
@@SepeVo No hate here, just pointing out the obvious.
15? Maybe 5
"Here's your large, comfortable car. With all the comfortable things about it removed."
"We also replaced the front bumper with a grille"
TheRealCarlos \ With a piece of trim that looks like a grille
Doug says the suspension is still floaty. This could be a good GT car.
"here's your large car"
Plus, black wheels don't look good on bright red or white cars. Too much contrast. They remind me of a 90's cop car with missing hubcaps.
I’m 26 and I want this so much. I have a bit of a weird thing for full sized sedans.
Same here dude!
@Jason Truong true
Same but the Camry trd is so much cheaper
@@nyyankees4296 Well, it is a smaller car so it kinda makes sense that it's cheaper.
Same. I had a small sporty car when I was 18 but over time I grew accustomed to huge sedans. They're just so comfy
I've only seen this car twice on the streets. It's pretty damn rare.
I’ve only seen one! I’ve seen more NSX’s lol
While I only see Mk4 supras 😔

One in my neighborhood and its so stupid 😂. I have the sportiest car in the neighborhood. A modded Kia Stinger gt2
Doug: "Except for the Prius, I cant think of another car that I'd be more surprised in having a TRD model" Toyota: WRITE THAT DOWN WRITE THAT DOWN
please, no. no prius TRD. just no.
Hollywood movies digging their own grave with the mentality of *"SUBVERTING EXPECTATIONS"* Toyota: WRITE THAT DOWN TOO
Clearly, HP are health points. Duh
A Prius with a hub motor on each wheel and the gas engine hooked only to a generator and maybe the A/C compressor could be a decent performance car. Maybe. Perhaps.
pretty sure they're giving everything in their lineup the trd trim
When Doug says a car is “weird” you better believe something is about to go down
With Doug, it's either weird, crazy, ridiculous, or insane.

So, take an ugly car, make it uglier, and call it a TuRD. Note to Chevy: hit your vehicles with a fugly stick and put Chevy Racing Program decals on it. You'll sell CRaP faster than you can make them.
I drove one of these today for my dealership and I love it. Really nice suspension, sharp handling, nice interior. The only thing that annoys me is the FWD only. AWD and RWD should be the options for a car like this.
@@iamnoah26 only the 4 cyl camrys come with awd
That's where toyota reminds you that you didn't buy a lexus
@@awesomewhiteness1 i have an awd 2020 camry. Anyone who buys a camry knows exactly what they are purchasing. If i wanted a lexus i wouldve gotten a lexus
That alone automatically makes this not a sports car. Doesn’t even have paddle shifters
@@user-kc8yo9yy7o it does have paddle shifters.
He definitely clowned tf out of this car 🤣
Toyota creates a version of the Avalon that no one wants yet doesn’t create a version of the Supra that everyone wants.
Modifiying an existing car is easy, developing a new one is way harder. The Supra everyone wants costs million to develop, as they cannot let it built and develop entirely by BMW as they did on the actual model
The Lexus LC should have been the supra
This thing only costs $5,000 less than a Supra
@@mahu142 Dude, they're the biggest automaker in the world and yet they whine on huge cost to make a car wearing such a halo name. That's the case with every carmaker, their halo car always embodiment of what they can do at best albeit at huge cost. Yeah, I admit it's a great sports car and they made some unique tuning on their own but do you think it's enough for a freaking new gen Supra. From switches, knob, steering wheel, iDrive, gearbox to the freaking engine all shared from Z4. Supra name has bigger impact than Toyota name will ever be. It shouldn't exist if it's a rebadged after all. I'm fine with rebadged Corolla or Camry or whatever boring cars they made but a flagship product. Hmm, no bruh. What are they thinking? Supra should be stopped and remembered as a legend but somehow get reincarnated as a rebadged German instead. I'm sorry if I sound a bit offensive but no hard feeling to you bro. Cheers ...
They are actually redoing the Supra for 2022 and possibly 2021, from what I’m hearing.
CNC: Finally Doug quarantined himself from our cars

@@raafidk nobody cares what 17 year olds drive. You drive what your parents let you drive. If you have something fancy either you got a very nice hand me down or you're spoiled so good for you
Doug’s review actually got me to go out and take a look at one. I was blown away. Drove it, and was shocked at the power and balance. I just bought one. This is coming from a car guy in his early 40’s coming off a back to back ownership of a 2011 and 2016 GTI which I loved. The 2021 new colors and additions like the black roof make this car look even better. And I had two red GTI’s back to back. I got the color ice edge and it is friggin sharp. My advice before you trash something, go take a look at it in person. If it does it for you drive it. You might be surprised to find a very limited diamond in the rough.
still love it? im thinking of buying a 2021 avalon hybrid xle
@@NATOnova oh yea. Wouldn’t trade it in for anything right now. Have done two long trips with family Of 4 and it handled all the luggage and comfortable and fast and still gets looks.
@@spomante I feel like a lot of reviewers are so used to driving absolute top tier sports cars that more attainable cars for most people feel boring to them. To average middle class folks a car like this will feel amazing in comparison. So we should take these reviewers with a grain of salt at times.
@@marklatham1414 that’s a great point. I still have the car and still love it.

Red calipers “the universal sign of a performance car”
You get an extra 5hp per caliper. Or so it says on the window sticker.

When you want a fast looking car but are afraid of actually going fast.
300hp is slow?
No Name kinda
No Name No, it’s just that everyday cars are fast and upgrades are pointless!
300hp is pretty much EXPECTED for a car this large. It's not impressive anymore. And even if it had 500hp, it still wouldn't be a true sports sedan, because it's not set up for handling and light weight.
No Name 6.1 0-60’is slow

Dear Dougy, Your sarcasm on the review of your Avalon limited is priceless. I love all your reviews of your supercars but I was taken back when I saw you doing the sublime Avalon. It was informative but hilarious. I love you to death. Especially when I am feeling down. Your reviews pick me up. You are definitely the best at car reviews. You are the pinnacle of car reviews. They should pay you the big bucks if they aren't and give you periodic raises. Supercar Blondie makes some gaffs, and those others can't get close.
I like how you can tell he’s thinking “this is stupid, why does this exist?” The entire video.
The front grill is so big, they might as well make the whole car a grill.
Seriously underrated comment. This was a hugely entertaining review.

Hi
They've created these TRD versions along with more dynamic base models to shed the older person's image of previous Avalons & Camrys. So more younger buyers is the target audience to likely utilize a larger percentage of the market.
Doug really goes off the hinges in this one
Doug: Avalon’s tend to be for older clientele Me, a 21 year old who drives an ‘03 Avalon: Harsh but accurate
MissMusicQueen101 I bet it’s a really comfy ride

Thank you for bringing back childhood memories
Type 2 diabetes!
Ha
Tis I The COUNT! he’s exaggerating it because toyota basically riced this car from the factory
About 14 years ago, Toyota made the TRD Aurion, for the Australian and NZ market, it had a TRD specific bodykit just like this one but with an added Supercharger producing 257kw or 344 Bhp, I really don’t get why Toyota don’t do more in the performance sector these days, like they did with the Aurion TRD, maybe because they know these things will never see the track? Idk but all I know is that they’re capable of making a solid sports sedan and they really should give us a power boost.
Doug the SOS cover is really a well thought out improvement. In past models, the first homelink button was so close to SOS button that many emergency calls were made while trying to open the garage door.

Took too long to find this comment. What an attention to detail...
I just got a 2013 Avalon XLE as a 27 year old and I am in love with Avalon. These cars are so beautiful, comfortable, and enjoyable. Once I saw this 2020 TRD review, now I want one. It’s like being flashy without being flashy. It’s also being luxury without showing to be luxury. It’s in disguise and I love it. I really want and it’s ashamed that Toyota discontinued
Engineering team: How much more HP we adding to the Avalon? Toyota: HP? Whats that? Put red seat belts
Ordinary Gaming hey now, it has red brake calipers
and red stitching on seats
For the Camry I get it because it's actually the cheapest version of the v6. But this I don't
Toyota: We spent all our time on the Camry TRD. Oh wait, we screwed up on that one too.....
Aiden V and everyone knows those add 5 hp per caliper
Actually really like the design, but its just scandalous to not put a different engine from the standard model in it.
Right?? I had hoped they'd put a turbo on it or something
At least a tune to make the exhaust burple and pop
exactly like wtf ... V6 with 390 like in mercedes c43 would be nice
AnimalzyNL it’s toyota after all. Nothing will make them tune their engines.
Ja precies dat
This car looks really REALLY good im not even gonna lie . Id buy this for sure

i actually just got the past generation of the avalon (im in my early 20s) and I love it and so do my friends. It stopped being a boring old person car in 2013 in my opinion.
Had one of these when I was in between sporty cars, a few years ago. surprisingly had a lot of get up and go lmfao. I would race my friends brz and just fucking gap him each time.
BMW's grills are getting way too big! Toyota Avalon: "Allow me to introduce myself"

amoap Toyota Avalon grill: "Hold my massive grill" 😂😂
amoap I love it man. Haha 😂 it gets a lot of flack but it looks good in person!
Other sports cars automakers: how many hp should we add to the engine to make it sportier? Toyota: I think we are just gonna put red lines around the floor mats
They upgraded the suspension, that's more important to a sporty feel than most horsepower. If I had to choose between the two I would choose a sporty suspension every time. Of course, I sold my 05 Camry and bought an 02 MR2 so really what I want is a light car with the engine in the right place!
Suspension> bigger engine
Suspension contributes a lot of the feel of the driver experience, yes. You can't even use a ton more torque and horsepower all of the time, but better handling yes all day long any at speed range in any conditions.

I happen to like the look of this car. The grill is rather gaudy, but other than that I’d drive this car. I’ve had two Avalon’s previously and have thoroughly enjoyed them. And I’m only in my 40’s. But I like it that everyone thinks of this car as an “Old Person’s” car, because the secret gets kept at how great of cat these really are. And you can get a really good deal on them. Plus you save at least 10K on the Lexus variant and badge.

Dym0n i would like this, but it has 69 soooooo.......
Car companies decades ago: “we need to have a grill on the front of our cars” Car companies now: “we need to have a front fascia on the grill of our cars”
honestly worst thing about car design now. i feel like all cars try to look super sporty
yeah its way too big and obnoxious, it kills the front end, it could of actually looked pretty cool if they hadnt
I think its funny how in the 90s, car designers want grills to be as small and unnoticable as possible to make a clean aerodynamic look, and nowadays, "bigger is better"
It looks even worse when they’re experimenting with the size of headlights making them smaller and smaller.
2025: we need to have a car somewhere behind our grills.
I got one!! Wish it had a little more power. Not quite as quick as the Camry TRD but just as fast. 0-60 in 6.6 secs. I love it.
I think it looks good. if it had a turbo even a cheap roots supercharger i think it would be a bit more special.

IMO the best precedent for this is the Mercury Marauder. The Mercury Grand Marquis buyer was basically the same retirement gated community buyer as the Avalon. The Marauder was cool (and even more than the Avalon TRD because it had more power), but didn't sell. I suspect the Avalon TRD will be the same story!
I like that control surfaces are highlighted red
"I still don't understand the target market for the Avalon", then exactly explains the target market
@smile cuteLexus ES350 same size and price of Avalon and more luxury
Also Nissan Maxima
found one today silver Avalon trd 55k miles 2020 they asking 30k which your thought
I remember when the Avalon was considered the Japanese Buick, and that was a compliment.
Buick is now china buick. You can see it in the commercials. Times have changed.
It still basically is. This is a weird off-shoot to the Avalon line. It represents prob 2% of sales or less.
Black wheels don't look good on bright colors like red or white. They remind me of a 90's cop car with missing hubcaps. They should be shiny gunmetal, not black.
80's Boombox Collector Could not agree more
Yup. And, Toyota will not sell an Avalon to anyone under the age of 60. True story!
Hi Doug! I watch all of your videos and love them. I was wondering if you could do a review on the new 2022 Toyota Camry TRD. Maybe let us know what you think.

I am a fan of the 2nd and 3rd generation Avalon’s. From 2003-2012 ish. I just bought a cheap one that is incredibly smooth, car seats are better than the new ones, and the back seats recline. All it needs is a Bluetooth stereo.
Clean and clear video
My favorite part of the Avalon and Camry is that, unlike other brands, they give a damn about interior design and actually ingrate their screen into the interior instead of just sticking one on top of the dash.
All screens are going to look crazy dated in 5+ years regardless of where they are mounted. That's all I see, TBH. The placement is secondary
Marco B that will always be an inevitability of technology. Designing how they look in the interior is the part that they can control so how they do it is incredibly important.
This looks you attached every AutoZone accessory at once

David Alves I’m being funny sarcastic. You are saying it is overdone I am agreeing with you with Dave Chappelle humor. You’re right if you have to explain it......oh well most Comedians will catch it. Sorry David.
I was thinking more like pep boys
Iowan For Justice He wasn’t replying to you😭😂
I'm buying an avalon hybrid and I'm gonna try to get the TRD trunk mat from the dealer
I work at a Toyota dealership and do oil changes on these all the time. They are pretty cool and besides the venza these are the nicest cars we have.
