Audi TT Engine Bay

A budget sports car with a luxury badge. The Audi TT coupe has become an iconic car in its relatively short life span with its chic looks and light on pocket price tag. The critics, however, haven’t been too kind to its all show no go approach. The TT packed all the troubles of a sports car with harsh ride, low ground clearance and lack of space, yet it didn’t offer the kind of performance one expects to compensate for the pain. In its third generation then, Audi aims at setting things right. Even in its most basic form, the new TT gets more power and better technology and that should ideally translate into more fun. So our day spent with the new one was to find out if Audi has succeeded.
