Audi farewells TT with Final Edition coupe
AUDI will farewell the TT sportscar locally this month with the Final Edition coupe going on sale from $88,479 plus on-road costs.
The limited edition model marks the end of three generations of the TT, and joins similar celebratory models in Europe and the United States.
The Australian variant is based upon the 45 TFSI quattro coupe variant and is claimed to have over $14,000 of additional equipment for a $4479 uptick in price.
Additions include Audi’s S Lime Competition Plus package with rear spoiler, black exterior garnishing, 19- or 20-inch alloy wheel options, a leather and Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel with 12 o’clock marker, power adjustable seats in Nappa leather with S embossing and Ara Blue or Express Red stitching, and a choice of Turbo Blue or Slate Grey interior finishings.
The Audi TT Final Edition is available in a choice of four paint colours – Chronos Grey, Glacier White, Tango Red, and Turbo Blue.
Audi offers the TT Final Edition with the same driveline found in the derivative model – a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine developing 180kW and 370Nm driving all four wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch (automatic) transmission.
A 0-100km/h time of 5.1 seconds is listed.
More than 650,000 examples of the TT have been produced at Audi’s Gyor plant in Hungary since production commenced some 25 years ago. It is a modern classic that is certain to be missed.
“Instantly recognisable, the Audi TT rightly enjoys its place as a modern classic,” said Audi Australia managing director, Jeff Mannering.
“From the original concept car in 1995, through three generations and various specialist iterations over the years, it has struck a chord with customers and critics alike right around the world.
“Boasting all of the elements that have endeared the TT to a legion of customers over its 25-year production, the TT Final Edition is a fitting way to farewell this automotive icon.
“It has all of the style of the original at its core, coupled with impressive performance and a high level of specification as befits this limited-edition release.”
