New Audi TTS is now available to order

AUDI’S compact, premium sports car, the new TTS is now available for order.

Sporty acceleration values are possible with the seven-speed dual-clutch transmission thanks to the close ratios of the lower gears. The wide ratio of the highest gear reduces engine speed and with it fuel consumption.

The 2.0 TFSI outputs 225 kW and has a maximum torque of 400 in the speed range between 2,000 and 5,300 rpm, 20 Nm more than with the predecessor engine. The TTS Coupé accelerates to 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds (Roadster: 4.8 seconds)—a tenth faster than previously. The top speed is restricted electronically to 250 km/h (155.3 mph). A particulate filter is standard.

The new Audi TTS comes with quattro permanent all-wheel drive and the Audi magnetic ride controlled shock absorber system as standard features. Other suspension modules include progressive steering, fourlink rear suspension and Electronic Stabilization Control (ESC).

The TTS competition special model adds a sporty touch—with LED headlights, Audi rings laminated on the side sills, privacy glazing (Coupé only), a fixed rear wing, brake callipers painted red, 20-inch wheels in highgloss black and other exterior details in gloss black. Glacier white, tango red and mythos black are available for the exterior.

The two options for leather upholstery and trim give the interior genuine exclusiveness. Express red with contrasting stitching in granite grey or ebony with contrasting stitching in express red. The inside rings of the air vents are painted red, the gear lever knob and steering wheel rim with red 12-o’clock marking from Audi exclusive come in Alcantara. In addition, inlays in carbon come as a standard feature.

Audi equips the new TTS with 18inch wheels.

The new Audi TTS will be available from dealerships in Germany and other European countries from early this year.
