Audi's 2016 TT

The body of the TT represents a new evolutionary stage of the Audi Space Frame (ASF). The TT 1.8 TFSI with a manual transmission sets the new benchmark for low weight at just 2,667.6 lb.

The body of the new Audi TT Roadster, which has specially strengthened sills and A-pillars, is very light thanks to an intelligent mixed material construction approach that features a large share of aluminum.

Audi offers optional headlights with LED technology or Matrix LED technology. The latter uses small individual LEDs that can be controlled to produce the high beam.

Equipped with the legendary quattro all-wheel drive, the TT personifies the all-season sports car. By sending power to the wheels with the most grip, quattro helps to maximize available traction and bolster your confidence behind the wheel.

Audi is offering the new generation TT with three turbocharged direct-injection engines. The 2.0 TFSI quattro gets 220 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque.

The TT 2.0 TDI ultra with 184 hp and 280.3 lb-ft of torque gets 56 mpg. This corresponds to CO2 emissions of 177.0 g/mi – a new best-in-segment figure.

The new entry-level 1.8 TFSI engine gets 180 hp and 184.4 lb-ft of torque.

When the car is driven in a sporty way, the system presses the TT into a curve and allows controlled drifts on wet road surfaces.

In the user interface concept, which is entirely focused on the driver, the Audi virtual cockpit replaces both the analog instrument cluster and the MMI monitor. The driver can toggle the 12.3-inch display between two different viewing modes. In the classic view, the speedometer and tachometer take center stage.
