Audi TT Coupe - The Sports Car

The Audi TT design study shown at the 1995 German Motor Show was greeted enthusiastically, not least for the sheer purity of its design. Now the series-production model is about to be launched, and confirms the fascinating, no-compromise design of this remarkable sports car. The original concept is still totally intact - something of a rarity in automobile development! The necessities of series production have been incorporated into the design with exceptional care.

The TT first took shape in the minds - or better still, in the hearts - of Audi designers who have retained all their enthusiasm for a truly outstanding car, and who were given as much freedom as possible to translate their concept of "the way Audi should build a sports car" into reality.

With the TT, Audi acknowledges the strong pull exerted by the thoroughbred sports car in its original form. Even the model name is a tribute to one of the legends of motor sport, the famous "Tourist Trophy" race.
