Everything About TRD Packages

If you've ever seen one of our N Charlotte Toyotas, you might have noticed some cool features and an acronym TRD in bold red letters. TRD stands for Toyota racing development, a package available on various models. The TRD package comes in three different package models that we will dive deeper into today. This package has some remarkable history behind it, and today our experts are going to give you the rundown. 

The history of the TRD? 

Toyota racing development was founded in 1979 to improve performance in cars. It started as an aftermarket parts distributor and a "speed shop" and is now one of the most accomplished engineering companies in the motorsport industry. 


The Three TRD Package Models 


TRD Sport 

This TRD package gives you an upgrade when it comes to giving your N Charlotte Toyota a sporty, elevated exterior. However, this isn't going to be your pick if you want off-roading capabilities. 

  • Sport-tuned suspension

  • 17-inch alloy wheels

  • TRD graphics

  • Integrated wide-angle for lights 

  • Hood scoop (non-functional)


TRD Off-Road 

This N Charlotte TRD package gives drivers the best off-roading features to get you into adventures in the N Charlotte Toyota. These features can be costly if you modify them yourself, but when you buy them customized already, it can help eliminate problems. 


  • Charlotte Toyota's unique TRD-tuned off-road suspension

  • Bilstein shocks

  • 16-inch alloy wheels

  • More significant approach angle (from 29 degrees to 32 degrees)

  • Electronically locking rear differential

  • Crawl control

  • Inclinometer with roll/pitch displays

  • Wide-angle fog lights

  • Multi-terrain select

  • TRD off-road graphics


TRD Pro 

This TRD package gives you the ultimate off-roading package by providing convenience and comfort to go along with it. This is the most expensive package option but gives you a lot of upgrades like: 


  • Special TRD-tuned off-road suspension with a 1-inch lift

  • Fox internal bypass coil-over springs and rear remote reservoir shocks

  • 16-inch TRD pro-black alloy wheels

  • 35-degree approach angle

  • TRD pro-cat-black exhaust and a leather shift knob

  • An even better and thicker front skid plate

  • TRD pro graphic on floor mats with black leather-trimmed seats

  • Heritage-inspired Toyota front grille

  • Power moonroof, dual-zone automatic climate control, and driver-assist features

 

What models come in TRD?

There are quite a few models in our lineup that can be purchased with the TRD Pro package, including the Toyota Sequoia, 4Runner, Tacoma, and Tundra. The basic TRD package includes the N Charlotte Camry and Avalon. Additionally, the Toyota Sequoia, Tacoma, and 4Runner are available in the TRD sport package. Finally, if you are looking for the models with the off-roading package, that would be the Toyota RAV4, Tacoma, and 4Runner.
