    TT RS German Press info

    Sorry, in German only:

    PresseInfo - Der Audi TT RS

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Audi baut wieder einen bärenstarken Fünfzylinder: Auf dem Genfer Salon feiert der Audi TT RS Weltpremiere. Sein turbogeladener 2,5-Liter Motor leistet weit über 300 PS. Er sorgt für explosive Beschleunigung, pure Faszination und unvergleichlichen Sound.

    Die Legende kehrt zurück – leistungsstarke Fünfzylinder-Benziner haben bei Audi eine große Tradition. Der neue Turbo-Direkteinspritzer führt diese dynamische Linie fort. Er sorgt im TT RS für fulminante Fahrleistungen: Der Spurt von null auf 100 km/h ist eine Sache von deutlich weniger als fünf Sekunden, Überholvorgänge werden beiläufig erledigt, und die abgeregelte Höchstgeschwindigkeit von 250 km/h ist bloße Formsache.

    Der permanente Allradantrieb quattro, ein hochentwickeltes Fahrwerk und gewaltige Bremsen kontrollieren die Power sicher – der kompakte TT RS mit seiner leichten, überwiegend aus Aluminium bestehenden Karosserie in Audi Space Frame ASF-Bauweise ist eine konsequente Fahrmaschine.

    Mehr Informationen gibt es bei der Audi-Pressekonferenz auf dem Genfer Automobilsalon am 3. März 2009 in Halle 1, Stand 1060.




    Der neue Audi TT RS begeistert mit ultimativer Performance und überragender Traktion. Als RS Hochleistungs-Sportwagen vereint er erfolgreiches Motorsport-Know-how und technische Kernkompetenzen der Marke Audi. Herzstück des Audi TT RS ist der neu entwickelte 2,5-Liter-5-Zylinder-Reihenmotor. Durch die Kombination von Turboaufladung und der rennsporterprobten Benzindirekteinspritzung FSI® arbeiten seine 250 kW (340 PS) äußerst effizient. Ein sportlich abgestimmtes 6-Gang-Schaltgetriebe mit Schaltwegverkürzung und der permanente Allradantrieb quattro® übertragen das üppige Drehmoment von 450 Nm auf die Straße. Weitere Highlights sind das abgesenkte TT RS Sportfahrwerk, die Sporttaste sowie die 18-Zoll-Hochleistungsbremsanlage.

    Optisch grenzt sich die Hochleistungsvariante durch verschieden TT RS spezifische Differenzierungen wie dem Kühlergrill im Rautendesign oder dem feststehenden TT RS Heckflügel von den übrigen Audi TT Varianten ab. Im Folgenden finden Sie die wichtigsten Highlights und erste Termine:

    Faszinierendes Design:

    Kraftvoll-sportliches Design mit TT RS spezifischen Differenzierungen: u. a. Aluminium-Gussräder im 5-Doppelspeichen-Design, Kühlergrill im Rautendesign, markanter Diffusoreinsatz hinten, feststehender TT RS Heckflügel sowie Stoßfänger im TT RS Design
    Pure Sportwagenatmosphäre im Innenraum mit TT RS Multifunktions-Sportlederlenkrad und Sportsitzen in Alcantara/Leder
    Xenon plus mit LED-Tagfahrlicht
    Vollautomatisches Verdeck und elektrisches Windschott (TT RS Roadster)
    Motor und Getriebe:

    2.5 TFSI 6-Gang-Handschalter (250 kW/340 PS)
    Langhubiger Fünfzylinder-Reihenmotor mit Bezindirekteinspritzung FSI® und Turboaufladung für überragende Fahrwerte
    Das Leistungspotenzial entfaltet sich spontan, das kräftige Drehmoment steht frühzeitig und über ein breites Drehzahlband bereit
    Vorbildliche Effizienz mit in dieser Leistungsklasse niedrigen Verbrauchs- und CO2-Werten
    Sportlich abgestimmtes 6-Gang-Schaltgetriebe mit Schaltwegverkürzung
    Elektronische Abregelung der Höchstgeschwindigkeit bei 280 km/h und Designpaket Carbon für den Motorraum (Option)
    Fahreigenschaften und Fahrdynamik:

    Permanenter Allradantrieb quattro® für beste Traktion, faszinierende Dynamik und souveräne Stabilität
    TT RS Sportfahrwerk mit niederiger Trimmlage und straff abgestimmten Federn und Dämpfern
    Mit der Sporttaste lässt sich die Grundcharakteristik der Gaspedalkennlinie, der Abgasanlage und des optionalen adaptiven Dämpfungssystems Audi magnetic ride beeinflussen
    18-Zoll-Hochleistungsbremsanlage sorgt für überragende Verzögerungswerte und glänzt mit hoher Standfestigkeit
    Zweistufig abschaltbares elektronisches Stabilisierungsprogramm ESP erlaubt höchste Dynammik
    Ausgezeichnete Aerodynamik und innovativer Leichtbau durch Audi Space Frame ASF® tragen zur exzellenten Fahrdynamik bei
    Als emotionale Speerspitze im Segment der kompakten Hochleistungssportwagen bietet der Audi TT RS beste Chancen eine exklusive Kundengruppe anzusprechen. Das Modell stärkt das Prestige von Audi als sportliche Premiummarke und trägt zum Ausbau des Marktanteils bei.


    Der TT RS wird voraussichtich ab Anfang 2. Quartal 2009 bestellbar sein. Erste Auslieferungen an Kunden sind ab dem 3. Quartal diesen Jahres geplant.

    So no word on the S-Tronic? I reckon if a manual gearbox can fit in a DSG can as well. At least the new seven speed DSG should, as they started developing that after the TT-RS plans existed. So I guess the specs were clear by then. And they wouldn't want to annoy RS-customers with missing features all other TT-models offer?

    NO S Tronic.

    Regarding new 7speed S Tronic in S4 for example-it is designed ONLY for longitudinal engine layout.

    Current limit in 6speed S Tronic for transversal engine layout is 410Nm-so, TT RS engine is simply to powerfull for all current DCT boxes in VAG porfolio(for transversal engine layout).

    To repeat:

    S Tronic in A5,S5,A4,S4 and Q7 models-7speed with wet clutches-max. 550Nm

    S Tronic in TT S or VW Golf GTI VI-6speed with wet clutches-max. 410Nm

    DSG in VW Scirocco 1.4TSI-7speed with dry clutches-max. 250Nm

    The DQ250 that is. What happened to the DQ500? And why not modify the DQ250 for the missing 10% of robustness? The additional price would probably be laughably small compared to the price of the DSG-option (and the whole RS).

    I love the car but absoultely dissapointed with the lack of S-Tronic.
    It's 21st century and to offer only manual will be a great marketing drawback.
    Do you have any info on upcoming S-Tronic for this model?

    I agree with you...
    The car could be a real blast with S-Tronic

    i thought DSG is comming later as an option, maybe it will be a new one.

    i read it also on other sites.
    ~~~And God did ask the stones... wants their Quattro to drive... the stones answered..." no we´re not hard enough".~~~

    I don't think Audi is afraid of those 450Nm - more likely they want to see what the tuners will do with that 2.5TFSI and than make a bit stonger DSG...

    They most certianly don't want (chipped) TT RS's with broken gearboxes all around the world...

    You may be right...
    But Audi TTS is in the same situation and the tuning capablitites of 2.0TFSI are much hoigher than gerabox potential...

    IF we don't see S-Tronic for this car, it will be a big dissapointment...
