Limited Audi TTS Competition is here

With only 25 of these exclusive units being allocated to South Africa, 200kW of power, quattro all-wheel drive and a slick shifting six-speed S tronic transmission, this limited edition TTS model fuses exclusivity with impressive performance.

With world-wide production limited to only 500 units, this TTS is sure to become a collector’s item with the majority of the 25 units already committed to customers in South Africa.

The production of the 500 000th Audi TT documents the success of the compact sports car. The TT achieved design icon status with the very first generation which debuted as a Coupe in 1998. It impressed with its 2+2 seating concept and variable luggage compartment; and also set the standard with its technology: the potent downsizing turbocharged engines, quattro all-wheel drive for the high-end models and with the six-speed S tronic, which debuted in the model series in 2003.

The second generation, which followed in 2006/2007, marked the first time that Audi succeeded in reversing the weight spiral. The ASF (Audi Space Frame) body, which is made predominately of aluminium, made the new version as much as 90 kilograms lighter than the previous model. The low weight enables strong performance with very low fuel consumption.

The Audi TTS Coupe competition is available exclusively in the special paint finishes Imola Yellow or Nimbus Grey, and its exterior calling card is a fixed rear wing with bars in a matt aluminium-look finish and its 18-inch wheels.

The 2.0 TFSI engine defines the dynamic character of the Audi TTS competition with its 200kW and 350Nm of torque. Paired with the six-speed S tronic, it is said to accelerate the Coupe from 0-100 km/h in 5.3 seconds.

Average fuel consumption for the Coupe is claimed at 7.7 litres per 100 kilometres and the top speed is electronically limited to 250 km/h.

The Impulse leather package in steel grey dominates the interior of the TTS competition and uses characteristic leather bands as decorative elements. Their cut edges are dyed Imola yellow, and this same shade of yellow is used for the contrasting stitching. Aluminium badges on the door trims embossed with “1 of 500” further accentuate the exclusivity of the special edition model.

There are no options available for the limited edition Audi TTS Coupe competition and all features – from xenon plus headlights to aluminium inlays – are available as standard equipment in this exciting new model, making this package an extremely competitive offer for the motoring enthusiast looking for iconic exclusivity.

The Audi TTS competition is available in Coupe body style only and will be priced at R664 500 in the launch month of May.

This includes the five-year / 100 000km Audi Freeway Plan which is available to extend to seven-years / 200 000km.
