AUDI TT

The Audi TT is available as a 2+2 hatchback coupe or a two-seat roadster convertible. Only one trim and engine are available, the latter being a 2.0-liter turbocharged Audi TT four-cylinder that produces 211 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. Quattro all-wheel drive and a six-speed dual-clutch


automated manual transmission (S tronic) are standard.Audi TT Handling is commendable, but hardly anything that'll remind you of a Porsche Boxster or Cayman. The Audi TT is ultimately more about its unique style, a comfortable ride and its all-wheel-drive system that provides the sort of all-weather traction that few small coupes offer. The Audi TT turbocharged four-cylinder delivers respectable power, while the quick-shifting transmission helps make the most of that output. Still, 211 hp isn't much in this segment, where 300-plus hp is more typical. As such, for driving enthusiasts the Audi TT's acceleration will seem subpar.

One of the Audi TT's most notable assets is its superbly crafted interior, which boasts a sleek and modern look.Audi TT Standard features include xenon headlights, leather/simulated suede upholstery, Bluetooth connectivity and a 12-speaker Bose audio system with satellite radio. Audi TT options include the S Line Competition package (19-inch wheels, sport suspension,Audi TT upgraded leather upholstery), heated seats, a navigation system and nifty baseball glove-style upholstery.

 Though the coupe's rear seats aren't suitable for anyone taller than 5 feet, they fold down to create a substantial 23 cubic feet of cargo space. The Audi TT convertible has 8.8 cubic feet, which is sizable for a roadster.The current Audi TT was redesigned for the 2008 model year and represents the second generation. The general look is a clear evolution of its predecessor, though character lines are crisper and the nose adopts Audi's now signature single-frame grille. Although longer and wider than the first Audi TT, the latest version is lighter (by nearly 200 pounds in the case of the roadster) thanks to increased use of aluminum in the body structure. It also offers a more powerful four-cylinder engine.

Prior to 2010, the Audi TT could be equipped with different powertrain options, specified as the Audi TT 2.0T (200 hp and 207 lb-ft of torque up until 2011) and Audi TT 3.2. The Audi TT 3.2 featured a 250-hp V6. This was a lively engine and certainly offered more grunt than the turbo-4, but its added weight was a detriment to handling. Both engines came standard with a six-speed manual, while the S tronic transmission was optional. Quattro was always standard on the Audi TT 3.2. Initially, the Audi TT 2.0T was front-wheel drive only, then Audi offered Quattro as an option for 2009 before making it standard for 2010. Used Audi TT car shoppers should also be aware that cars from early in this generation were available with a rather antiquated form of iPod connectivity (it would only play your first six playlists as if CDs in a six-disc changer) in lieu of the later standard auxiliary jack and optional iPod interface.
