Vorsprung durch Technik
Three words that express
the very essence of Audi.
Vorsprung durch Technik
isn’t a slogan. It’s our way
of seeing the world. It is the
driving force behind our history
of innovation that continues
into the 21st century.
Indeed, many technologies
that Audi pioneered remain
in our cars today. Some are
milestones in the history of
the motorcar. From our
beginnings in 1899, to the
Auto Union team’s Grand Prix
successes in the 1930s and our
more recent wins at Le Mans,
we have always been at the
forefront of the motor industry.
Vorsprung durch Technik makes
us who we are. To see more of
its influence, just read on.

The Audi TT RS
combines high
performance
and iconic
design
The Audi TT RS has a turbocharged 2.5-
litre TFSI® engine that delivers 340PS and
450 Nm of torque – making it the most
powerful TT we’ve ever produced. In the
TT RS plus, performance increases further
still – to 360PS and 465 Nm of torque.
Lowered suspension and special spring/
damper settings provide outstanding
handling, and advanced aerodynamics
ensure precise stability at all times.
A high-performance chassis and quattro®
all-wheel-drive complete this exhilarating
sports car.

TT RS interior story
We’ve introduced a number of finishing touches to
the Audi TT RS interior to make your driving experience
both comfortable and unique. You’ll find an impressive
attention to detail in everything from the front Sports
seats to the optional luxurious leather upholstery
which means that every journey you make will be
a personal one.

Engine
2.5 TFSI® engine
This five-cylinder engine combines a turbocharger with FSI®
direct petrol injection, confirming the status of the Audi TT RS
as a high-performance sports car. The 2.5-litre TFSI® engine is
ultra-compact. Just 49 centimetres in length and weighing 183
kilograms, it’s perfectly suited for transverse installation in the
Audi TT RS. The crankcase is made of vermicular-graphite cast
iron – a high-tech material that is both strong and lightweight.
Perfectly placed reinforcements enhance the block’s loading,
while the cylinder head, pistons, and connecting rods are also
low on weight, but high on tensile strength.

Transmission
and brakes
The Audi TT RS offers a fast-shifting manual transmission
for smooth, efficient acceleration and a high-performance
braking system to ensure this car stops as well as it goes.
Short-shift manual transmission
For fast, crisp gear changes in a sporty, manual set-up, the Audi
TT RS comes with short-shift manual transmission as standard.
This simple yet effective gear-change pattern means that
the gearstick has a shorter distance to travel between each
shift-gate, minimising the effort you have to make with each
up or down-shift, whilst maximising your driving enjoyment.
S tronic®
Driving is all about thinking ahead, which is just what the
S tronic® dual-clutch transmission does. It works almost as
two separate systems, one engaging the odd-numbered and
the other the even-numbered gears. So when you’re accelerating
in second, it has third gear waiting for you. And once you make
the switch, it’s already thinking about fourth. With two clutches
working together, you can change gears almost instantly while
experiencing smooth, uninterrupted power.
High-performance braking system
We created the 18-inch high-performance braking system in
the Audi TT RS with safety and control in mind. It features
four-piston brake callipers painted in black with the RS logo
on the front axle, as well as ventilated brake discs (370mm in
diameter) at the front, drilled and designed using composite
materials. All these features help the system to provide good
stability even when the car is carrying a heavy load.

Efficiency
At Audi, doing less is something we’re trying
to do more of. We’re working to use less fuel,
release less CO
we’ve incorporated a number of more efficient
technologies into the Audi TT RS.
Aerodynamics
When it comes to efficiency, a car’s shape matters.
It’s something we kept in mind when we created
the TT RS, giving it a smooth, flowing design.
As a result, its drag coefficient – a measure of
aerodynamic resistance, which affects both fuel
consumption and CO
surprisingly low.
TFSI®
Inside the engine of the Audi TT RS you’ll find the
same advanced fuel-injection technology that’s
driven us to win after win at Le Mans. With TFSI®,
fuel is injected directly into the engine’s chambers
so that combustion is timed right down to the
millisecond. As a result, waste is minimised and
you get the most from every last drop of fuel.
2 and waste less energy. It’s why

Audi Space Frame®
The TT RS features an aluminium Audi
Space Frame® which is rigid, strong and
incredibly light – keeping the car’s weight
down to a minimum. It means that as
well as improving safety and agility,
it also helps reduce fuel consumption.
15
quattro
It’s the technology that has given Audi the
edge on the rally circuit ever since it was first
introduced over 30 years ago – a technology
that delivers ultimate control whilst
enhancing the sporty characteristics which
make the Audi TT RS so thrilling to drive. It’s
called quattro® all-wheel-drive. The principle
is simple: in the same way that four brakes
ensure better deceleration, four permanently-
driven wheels deliver better acceleration and
road-holding, pushing or pulling the car as
needed, for a driving experience that’s
both dynamic and safe.

In the Audi TT RS, asymmetric dynamic
torque distribution continuously distributes
drive power between the front and rear
axles, depending on weather conditions, road
surface and gradient. This leads to greater
flexibility and an enhanced, sportier drive.
