Never took a look at that browser. If it's closed-source then definitely no. If it is you have to check it telemetry and security etc.

No, Avast is famous for selling user data, here is one review, this guy put it well

Why I wouldn’t use Avast Secure Browser:

The standalone download is offered as a web installer;
Avast collects and sends usage statistics and crash reports;
Avast’s browser comes with several built-in browser extensions.

Why I don’t use Avast products:

CCleaner, owned by Avast, phones to ipm-provider.ff.avast.com every time a cleanup is performed;
How often haven’t I received emails which included the sender’s Avast logo retrieved from Avast servers, offered as an opt-out option for Avast users and often never unchecked.

Need to say Avast, in my view, is one of those companies trading users’ privacy for their security?
If I have a look on the blacklist I use with dnscrypt-proxy, a list built from several, the number of entries including “avast” is amazing. So amazing that I’m bound to include *.avast.* to catch all avast urls. Such company behaviors irritate me and, when performed by so-called security firms, revolt me

 

 

Also, "Privacy" Avast browser collects and sends usage statistics and crash reports to company servers automatically. Users are not prompted about this during installation. You have to go in settings to turn this off, and who knows what data they sent meanwhile, but it doesn't matter anyway cuz you never want your privacy product to do something like this.

 

On top of that it's not open source. Never trust companies that release privacy product without making it open source. They are just selling your data.

 

So either use Brave browser that is not only much better then Avast browser,but it's also open source and have a great feature to connect over Tor network.

 

Or use Firefox and modify it for privacy like OP said.
