2006 Audi TT WHAT AUDI HAS TO SAY ABOUT THIS CAR: (Source: AUDI) 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 Coupé quattro provides particularly brisk performance.
Its four-cylinder engine Thanks to its sophisticated sports suspension, with McPherson struts at the front and double wishbones with trailing arms at the rear, the Audi TT Coupé 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 coupé 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 Coupé 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. Engine OUR TAKE ON THE AUDI TT: From concept to production, the TT embodies Audis committment to leading the world in distinctive luxury. The TT is a work of art with design cues from partner companies VW and Porsche, being somewhat of a a fusion of the Porsche Carrera and the VW Bug. The TT is built for rally mode with its stout stance and all wheel drive. The TT is the choice for sporty enthusiasts with a taste for contemporary automotive art.
