Manufacturer Press Release
|
The Audi TT
progressed from the design study shown at the Frankfurt Motor Show in
1995 to the production version in around three years. A compact car with
distinctive, clearly drawn lines, it stands for Audi design in its
quintessential form. If you look closely, you will see that the final
version has actually gained something over the show version. Numerous
awards from specialist magazines and their readers and high levels of
demand are an impressive demonstration of this Audi sports car's
popularity since its launch in September 1998.
The most powerful Audi TT Coupe quattro provides particularly brisk
performance. Its four-cylinder engine fitted with two intercoolers and a
larger turbocharger is good for a power output of 225 hp and propels the
TT up to a top speed of 150 mph. Acceleration and flexibility benefit
from an ample 207 lb-ft of torque between 2,200 and 5,500 rpm. This
sports car with permanent four-wheel drive sprints from 0 to 60 mph in
6.4 seconds. Its compact six-speed gearbox transmits power to the front
and rear wheels via a multi-plate wet clutch with its own hydraulic
actuating circuit and dedicated electronic control unit; this is the
heart of the four-wheel drive system in the Audi TT.
Thanks to its sophisticated sports suspension, with McPherson struts at
the front and double wishbones with trailing arms at the rear, the Audi
TT Coupe quattro offers optimum vehicle dynamics and reassuring safety
margins.
The brake system, with four large discs, ABS and electronic
braking-pressure distribution (EBD), is also designed for sporting
performance. When fitted with the turbocharged engine, the TT has
ventilated brake discs at the rear as well as at the front. In
conjunction with front-wheel drive, a traction control system (ASR) is
fitted as standard to maintain forward progress in difficult conditions.
225/45 ZR 17 tyres on the 165 kW (225 bhp) TT quattro mounted on
exclusive 7.5J x 17 alloy wheels ensure a dramatic appearance and also
reliable road grip for both versions.
As you would expect from Audi, the new coupe has an exemplary package
of safety features. This includes two front airbags and pyrotechnic
seatbelt pre-tensioners for the front seats. The Audi TT incorporates
the new head/thorax airbags in the front seat backs. They protect the
upper body and head in a side impact. This sports car meets the
requirements of the future European frontal-impact standard and the
side-impact requirements of 96/27/EU. The body structure, with its
additional transverse support for the door pillars in the form of a
tubular steel construction at the B cross-members and its large-volume
sill sections, is particularly rigid.
The functional interior, designed to suit the car's fundamental concept
perfectly, matches the styling of this 4.04 m long, 1.86 m wide and 1.35
m high 2+2-seater. Stylish details, such as elegant yet practical
instruments, many aluminium elements and sports seats with
leather-covered sides and Alcantara central panels, harmonise with the
clear-cut lines of the exterior.
Thanks to its smooth surfaces, the luggage space of the Audi TT Coupe
is highly practical. The centrally split rear seat back can be folded
down partially or completely, making the luggage compartment up to twice
as large when required - without restricting the position of the front
seats, a superior solution compared with the car's competitors.
