A Closer Examination: The 2011 Audi TT Coupe

In a blend of dynamic design, captivating performance and exceptional efficiency, the much-anticipated 2011 Audi TT Coupe makes its debut. This compact sports car, featuring an aluminium lightweight body and meticulously revised interior design, promises exciting new technologies to reduce fuel consumption.

Enhanced Exterior Elegance

The second generation of both the TT Coupe and its cousin, the TT Roadster have already established themselves as prominent figures in design circles. Their muscular stances, spacious steel shoulders and flat rooflines echo their predecessors' powerful masculine lines but appear more expressive than ever before.

New features include a forceful bumper framing larger air intakes with three-dimensional edges and fog lights encased in chrome rings. The single-frame grille showcases shiny black lattice while optional xenon plus headlights offer twelve straight white LEDs on their lower edge for daytime running purposes - key elements adding definition to this refined classic Audi design.

Focusing on the rear end, tubular tail light reflectors add depth to visual perception, accompanied by large exhaust system tailpipes – dual exhausts are featured on the 2.0 TFSI model – creating standout accents against a bigger black diffuser at the back. A spoiler enhancing downforce comes into play once you hit a speed of approximately 74 mph (120 km/h).

Tactile Hybrid Body

An important aspect contributing to the impressive efficiency and excellent driving ability of the TT coupe is undoubtedly its hybrid ASF (Audi Space Frame) technology-based body structure that employs aluminum at the front through to B-pillar coupled with steel panels used towards the rear part.

This strategic mix assists engineers perfectly balance axial loads whilst keeping overall weight remarkably low—a crucial factor determining dynamic performance.

Stylish Interior

The inside of the TT Coupe embodies sportiness, designed with dynamic elegance in mind and generous space utilization. Meticulous attention to detail is evident from the glossy applications used on the steering wheel, center console, door liner and air vents that are accentuated by frames and strips brushed in high-gloss black.

A Powerful Lineup of Drivetrains

The 2011 Audi TT offers a selection of turbocharged four-cylinder engines with direct fuel injection – two TFSI gasoline engines plus one TDI engine representing an ideal blend of power performance and unprecedented efficiency.

Newly introduced to this lineup is the highly efficient 2.0 TFSI which generates around 211 hp yet requires only an average fuel consumption of roughly six liters per hundred kilometers (around 35 US mpg).
