The Audi TT is a production front-engine, 2-door,
from 1998 to 2023 across three generations.For each of its three generations, the TT has been based on consecutive generations of
The TT's first two generations were assembled by Audi's Hungarian subsidiary, one of the world's largest engine manufacturing plants, using bodyshells manufactured and painted at Audi's Ingolstadt plant[1] and parts made entirely by the Hungarian factory for the third generation.[2]
The last of the 662,762 Audi TTs was manufactured in November 2023.[citation needed]

Aerodynamics
According to Audi Head of Design Marc Lichte, the curved outline and rounded bodywork of the Mk1 TT's design was inspired by Bauhaus.[14] This simplified curved shape was unusual at the time. The drag coefficient of the original TT is 0.35,[15] which is similar to its competitors such as the BMW Z4 and the Mazda MX-5.
However, the TT was involved in a number of high-speed accidents which were attributed to aerodynamic instability at high speeds. To solve these issues, Audi added modified control arms and firmer shock absorbers on both the front and rear suspension as well as a rear spoiler.[13]
TT quattro Sport
In 2005, Audi released the Coupé-only limited edition. Just 1,165 were produced. 800 with steering wheel on the right side, 365 with steering wheel on the left side. (900 sold in the UK, not the 1,000 originally planned) Audi TT quattro Sport
This weight reduction was achieved by removing the spare wheel, rear harmonic damper, rear parcel shelf and rear seats, and the standard fitment air conditioning.[16] The main battery was also relocated to the rear of the vehicle in order to maintain weight distribution as much as possible. Lightweight fixed-back Recaro bucket seats graced the interior.[16] Distinguishable from other TT Coupés by its two-tone paint scheme (Phantom Black pearl painted roof, pillars and mirror housings, in combination with either Avus Silver, Phantom Black, Mauritius Blue or Misano Red body colour)[16] and unique 18" 15-spoke cast aluminium alloy wheels, plus the same body kit as fitted to the TT 3.2 V6, the TT quattro Sport also featured black exhaust tailpipes and uprated suspension settings and new wheels, 1⁄2 in (13 mm) wider at the rear for improved handling. The brochure stated V6-spec brakes were to be fitted, however models delivered in the UK came with the standard 225 spec brake callipers which were red-painted.

Lawsuits
In June 2007, a class action lawsuit was filed against Volkswagen Group of America, alleging the timing belts for model year 1999–2003 Audi and Volkswagen vehicles equipped with a 1.8-litre turbocharged engine failed prematurely.[17] The complaint alleged that the timing belts failed prior to the owner's manual's service interval. The parties reached a class-wide settlement, with preliminary approval of the settlement granted in May 2008.
In May 2008, a class action suit reached a nationwide settlement regarding allegedly defective instrument clusters on 2000–2004, and 2005 model year Audi TTs. Owners were entitled to submit claims for repairs, replacement and/or cash reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses and received a two-year instrument cluster warranty extension.[18]
2.7T Quattro gmbH Concept
For the 30th anniversary Quattro gmbH unveiled an Imola Yellow TT that sported a 2.7 L Bi-Turbo V6 engine from a B5 Audi RS4 that produced 280 kW (381 PS; 375 hp) and 440 N⋅m (325 lb⋅ft) at 2,500 rpm[19] which was manufactured in 2001. This was accomplished by using a B5 RS4 donor car, which included engine, transmission, rear differential, axles, brakes, and wheels from a B5 Avant. Using the RS4 drivetrain, Audi had the ability to utilize a Torsen based 6-speed Quattro manual transmission in a car that is normally using a transverse engine layout and Haldex based all wheel drive system.
TT Mk2 (Type 8J, 2006–2014)
Second generation (8J) | ||
---|---|---|
Kerb weight | 1,260–1,490 kg (2,778–3,285 lb) |
In August 2004, Audi announced that the next generation TT would be manufactured using aluminium, and would go into production in 2007.
Audi debuted the second-generation TT, internal designation Type 8J, on 6 April 2006, using the Volkswagen Group A5 (PQ35) platform with aluminium front bodypanels, and steel in the rear, to enhance its near-neutral front-to-rear weight distribution. Available in front-wheel drive or "quattro" four-wheel drive layout, the TT was again offered as a 2+2 Coupé, and as a two-seater Roadster. The second generation was five inches longer and three inches wider than its predecessor.[22] Factory production commenced during August 2006.[23]
8J powertrain
The powertrain options initially only included petrol engines, which consist of either one of two inline four-cylinder engines – the new 1.8-litre EA888 Turbocharged Fuel Stratified Injection (TFSI) (available initially only in Germany, later elsewhere from mid 2009),[24] or the more common and established EA113-variant 2.0-litre TFSI. The Fuel Stratified Injection (FSI) technology was derived from the Audi Le Mans endurance race cars, and offers improved fuel efficiency as well as an increased power output and cleaner emissions. The 3.2-litre 'V6' badged VR6 engine was carried over from the previous generation.[25] 2.0 TFSI quattro models, with the latest EA888 engine, became available in 2009 model year.[26]

Acceleration from standstill to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) on the Coupé is achieved in 7.5 seconds, and it will go on to reach a top speed of 226 km/h (140.4 mph).[28] The slightly less aerodynamically efficient[citation needed] Roadster reaches 100 km/h (62 mph) in 7.7 seconds, with a top speed of 223 km/h (138.6 mph).[28]
Audi claim average fuel consumption for the Coupé variant with this 2.0 TDI engine is 5.3 litres per 100 kilometres (53.3 mpg‑imp; 44.4 mpg‑US), which achieves a CO2 emissions rating of 139 gram/km.[28][29] The Roadster TDI achieves an average 5.5 litres per 100 kilometres (51.4 mpg‑imp; 42.8 mpg‑US) and CO2 of 144 gram/km.[28]
TT S-Line
As an additional package a standard Audi TT can be bought from factory with a special body kit upgrade to make it look like the Audi TT-RS version. The upgrade includes a fixed rear spoiler, and Alcantara/leather sports seats (Silk Nappa, Fine Nappa leather optional).
TTS
At the 2008
It was available with a choice of either a six-speed close-ratio
The
Official performance figures include a 0-100 km/h (0–62 mph) acceleration time of 5.2 seconds, with the Roadster four-tenths slower at 5.6 seconds.[31] Top speed is electronically limited to 250 km/h (155 mph).
Audi UK offered eight TTS cars for official use by the race organisers at the 2008 Isle of Man TT motorcycle races.[11][36]
The car went on sale in the US at November 2008.[37]
In 2014, at the International Motor Show in Geneva, Audi unveiled the new TTS model for the 2016 model year, alongside the standard 2016 Audi TT model. Both models were planned to go on sale in the beginning of 2015.[38]
TT Clubsport quattro concept

Whilst the TT Clubsport quattro is primarily a "show car", Audi has not ruled out the possibility of small-scale production.[39]
TT RS

The TT RS has a new short-shift close-ratio six-speed manual transmission,[41] and like all "RS" models, is only available with four-wheel-drive, with the TT RS using a specially adapted version of the latest generation multi-plate clutch from Haldex Traction.[41][44] Additions to the quattro system include a constant velocity joint before the cardan propeller shaft, and a compact rear-axle differential – upgraded to cope with the increased torque from the five-cylinder turbo engine.
Like the TTS, the TT RS has a 10 millimetres (0.4 in) lower ride height,[41] optional "Audi Magnetic Ride",[41] and rides on standard 18-inch wheels with 245/45 ZR18 tyres (optional 19" or 20" wheels are also available).[41] The brakes are upgraded to include two-piece cross-drilled and radially vented front discs, sized at 370 mm (14.6 in) in diameter.[41] The front discs are clamped by gloss black painted four-piston calipers, adorned with the RS logo.[41] Rear ventilated discs are sized at 310 mm (12.2 in) in diameter.[41]
It includes a fixed rear spoiler (retractable optional),
Official performance figures indicate the TT RS Coupé will accelerate from a standstill to 100 km/h (62.1 mph) in 4.5 seconds (4.7 seconds for the Roadster), with an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph).[41] There is a factory option to de-restrict the top speed to 280 km/h (174.0 mph).[41] The Coupé has a kerb weight of 1,450 kg (3,197 lb),[41] and the Roadster weighs in at 1,510 kg (3,329 lb).
As of 2010 the TT-RS is available with the 7-speed
The car went on sale in March 2009, with delivery beginning in summer.[45]
In 2010, the TT-RS was confirmed for the US market. The decision was influenced by an internet petition to bring the TT-RS stateside, which succeeded with over 11,000 signatures.[46] The TT-RS arrived in Q3 2011 as a 2012 model.
In 2012, the TT RS plus was launched. It featured the uprated version of the TT RS' engine that had originally been developed for the RS Q3 concept car; this version of the engine produces 355 hp (265 kW; 360 PS) at 5500 rpm, and 343 lb⋅ft (465 N⋅m) of torque at 1650 rpm.[47] As a result of this power increase, Audi claimed that the 0-62 mph (100 km/h) time had decreased to 4.3 seconds for the manual version, and 4.1 seconds for the S-tronic version.[47] In addition to this, Audi raised the top speed limiter, with the TT RS plus being restricted to 174 mph (280 km/h).[47]
