2011 Audi TT update offers new Golf GTI engine and Quattro
Audi has announced updates for the 2011 Audi TT Coupe and Roadster range. The main addition is the introduction of the 2.0-litre TFSI engine which is matched to Audi's Quattro all-wheel drive sytstem.
The new cars get the revised Volkswagen Golf GTI engine. This means there's now an Audi TT variant available with a 155kW 2.0-litre turbocharged engine offering 350Nm of torque, up 8kW and 70Nm from the existing model. Audi says the new TT is now capable of accelerating from 0-100km/h 5.6 seconds in S tronic automatic coupe form.
On top of the greater power and torque figures and improved acceleration times, the revised engine consumes less fuel. The quickest 2.0-litre, S tronic-equipped coupe has a fuel consumption rating of just 7.2L/100km. Not bad for a car that's well into the five second range for the 0-100km/h sprint.
Cosmetic revisions include subtle updates such as larger ducted air vents in the front chin, new fog lights, dual-branch twin outlet exhaust system and new 17 inch five spoke V design alloy wheels.
The new model Audi TT 2.0-litre TSFI Coupe and Convertible is available right now at your local Audi dealer.
