Audi TTS update.

I think there will be no RS. Maximum, we will get the Quatro Sport or a TT"CSL".

What's in the name.
Audi can simple put a TT 3.6 FSI Quattro out on the street.

Hans.

issue is not the engine. issue is the line-up. a 3.6 V6 named RS has a diff connotation than a regular TT.

what i am saying is that there may be some change to the TT engine lineup soon- for example.......

new base 2.0 TT with 230 hp,
uplevel 3.6 V6 with 300 hp

and then a TTS with a TT.

but there will not be a TT RS. in other words. the most powerful TT of this gen will be the one with the TT V6 motor.

lots of names are being thrown about- sport, quattro sport, club sport, clubsport quattro... but that just confuses things. and i don't think that will be the case.

i don't think we'd ever see a V8 powered TT. that engine is just too heavy for the chassis.

I still think all we will see is a TT/S with a 2.0TFSi engine kicking out 270~275hp and the option of a performance pack boosting this to 300hp.

End of story.

[Iceman]

Yes i will, no more info.
I will fetch my cote.

i like the LEDS

[AndyBG]

TT-S/RS roadster, looking great !

But we still don't know what's under bonnet...

[RXBG]

with HO 2.0T and quattro for EU only. and a TTS with a V6 300+ hp engine for the world. this latter is the one in all the pics with the nasty grille and dual exhausts. the former will likely sport an s-line package and have a regular front end.........

this after revisiting a post from a well informed source over on AW.

There is very little info that has been posted about the TT/S that is true, personally I don't know what's true any more. The only thing I do know is that there will be a TT with a 5cylinder engine that will be connected to Quattro, think of it as a modern version of the original Audi Quattro, complete with it's 5cyl Turbo engine.

Time scale.......think late 2009.

this is what was provided by said source.... this is a paraphrase and for each one of these possible forecasts not all of the engines would be made/offered at the same time.

1- 170+ 2.0 FT/Q, 200 2.0 FT/Q, 230 2.0 Q, 250 3.2 Q, 260+ 2.0 Q, 302 Q, 350 2.5 Q

2 - 170+ 2.0 FT, 200 2.0 FT, 230 2.0 Q, 250 3.2 Q, 260+ 2.0 Q, 302 Q

3 - 170+ 2.0 FT/(Q), 200 2.0 FT/Q, 230 2.0 Q, 250 3.2 Q, 302 Q

as such, it is possible that what may actually happen is an update of all the engines offered on the TT, with the original big two (the 2.0T 200hp and the V6 250 hp) actually being replaced with the 230 hp 2.0 and the updated V6 (updated 3.2 or new 3.6) making 300 hp. then, the so called "RS" with the 5 cyl turbo would actually be the TTS. in addition to all of this the 260 hp S3 engine TT would simply be a EU-only option in the form of a performance package but not a whole new model.

I wonder will we be seeing a four car line up soon in the TT. It is common knowledge that the current 2.0TFSi engine is being dropped from all of the VW models and being replaced with the 2.0TSi engine. Is it possible that Audi will do the same, they currently have this engine in 1.8L size so could they replace the TT2.0 with a similar powered 1.8TSi in fwd form and reposition the 2.0TSi and add Quattro. If so them at what power output and would this effect the TT3.2.

You know something maybe RXBG is on to something.

Only the output might be wrong. the line up might look something like this.

TT1.8TSi(185hp)fwd - TT2.0TSi(230hp)Quattro - TT3.2FSi(265hp)Quattro - TT/S 3.6FSi(300hp)Quattro.

I know where does this leave the supposed 2.0TFSi(270hp)? Well the real answer is I don't know, we could either not see it at all or it can possibly replace the TT3.2FSi, either way this could still leave a v6 at the top of the range until the TT/RS model shows it's face.

[RXBG]

i'd venture-

the 1.8 with 185

the 2.0 with 230

the 3.0 TT V6 with 300

and later the TT-S I-5 turbo with 350 hp.

i think the current 3.2 with 265 is about to be dropped by audi. it is a good motor, but cannot offer much over the upcoming 230 2.0T. and accords and camrys and G37's and even the upcoming hyundai coupe are making close to 300 hp.

there is no way the TT can maintain the right image if the upper level offering is not given some more guts.

[Leadfoot]

RXBG,

Do you even get a 2.0TFSi TT in the States or are they all V6 models.

[RXBG]

we get a 2.0T FWD 200 hp. and the V6. no 2.0T quattro.

[Leadfoot]

I don't think we will see a TT/S with 350hp, especially as the S5 has 355hp and it the next coupe model up in the Audi line up which starts with the TT and finishes with the R8.

Gauging that the R8's base model has 420hp and the S5 has 355hp, one would expect the TT/S to have no more than 300hp at tops. If there is to be a 350hp model which there will be , then it will be a RS model. If not by name at least by nature.

[RXBG]

update. AW is pretty much confirming a new V6 TT 330 hp engine with a 6-8 mpg improvement in fuel economy over the V8 to go into the new S4. expected to bow in new york in april.

i expect this engine will go into the S5, as well.

and- why not the TT-S? i expect it will go there too. not sure where that would leave the mysterious I5 engine......
