Audi TT Coupe Launched
Audi, the German luxury car manufacturer, today announced the launch
of its design icon, the Audi TT in India. Propelled by a powerful
and highly efficient petrol engine, this high performance sports
coupé is priced at INR 48, 36, 000 (ex-showroom Maharashtra) and
will be available at Audi dealerships from June 2012. The Audi TT
was unveiled by Mr. Michael Perschke, Head, Audi India.“Dynamic design,
enthralling performance and exemplary efficiency – the Audi TT Coupé is
an embodiment of a sports car which perfectly characterizes the core
essence of our brand DNA, ‘Vorsprung durch Technik’. The design icon
already sports a fascinating and dynamic appearance and has now been
revised to be even more expressive. This high performance sports coupé
is targeted at individuals who are dynamic and distinct and ones who
aim to seek a sense of freedom. While we focus on the sportiness, at
the same time we want to offer our customers the highly efficient and
dynamic 2.0 TFSI engine. I am confident that the introduction of the
Audi TT will further help us consolidate ourleadership position in the
sports car segment”, said Mr. Michael Perschke, Head, Audi India.
The company will start selling the car from June this year and it
will be sold as a completely built unit (CBU).
The body of the TT Coupé is based on hybrid Audi Aluminum Space Frame
(ASF) technology. Lightweight aluminum is used at the front of the car
back to the B-pillar, with steel panels used at the rear. The mix makes
it possible to finely balance the axle loads and keep the overall weight
low.
Talking about the car now, it measures 4,187 millimeters in length,
1,842 millimeters in width and 1,353 millimeters in height. Coming to
the drivetrain, TT is offered with a 2.0 TFSI engine that delivers 211
BHP of max power and 350 Nm of peak torque in the range of 1600 to 4200
RPM. The engine is complemented by a standard quattro permanent all-wheel
drive system and the S tronic gearbox. The same can sprint from 0-100 km/h
in just 5.6 seconds.
