Audi fremvist den nye TT som Allroad Shooting Brake koncept i Detroit i sidste uge. Test af den endelige produktion bilen er nu ved at tage plads i den Arktiske Cirkel med fuld afslører kun uger væk.
Understøtter den nye TT er en version af Volkswagen Grupper MQB platform. Motorer vil også købes fra familien MQB, hvilket betyder at 1. 8-liters og 2. 0-liters benzinkvalitet og en 2. 0-liters diesel udgør det centrale område.
Den nye TT vil være en af de første Audi at indvarsle virksomheder udvikler sig look, designet til at give modeller en tydeligere udseende i stedet for den russiske dukke-stil look af sit nuværende modelsortiment. Virksomheden har også talt om sin vilje til at fange nogle af styling succes af den oprindelige TT i sin tredje generation.
Coupe og cabriolet versioner af TT er planlagt i første omgang med en mere robust version inspireret af begrebet Detroit også en mulighed ifølge tekniske chef Ulrich Hackenberg.
Der er en tendens til delefiltre, shooting bremser og Allroad modeller, og vi kombineret TT med disse begreber, sagde han. TT har mere potentiale nu end i sin historie. Det kan være forskellige begreber og segmenter. En mere forrevne TT absolut har potentiale.
Selv om produktionen TT vil blive lavet primært af aluminium, er det meget sandsynligt at mindst én fremtidige højtydende TT — antydet på af begreber 288bhp, 199lb ft TFSI benzinmotor — vil være delvis fremstillet af CFRP. Konceptet blev også drevet af elektriske motorer kører hjulene, øge sit output til 402bhp og 480lb ft og hæve udsigten til en hurtig hybrid model i fremtiden.

Interiøret i den nye TT blev afsløret på CES udstillingen i Las Vegas tidligere i denne måned.
I en radikal afvigelse fra industrien normen har ikke indre en separat infotainment display midt på i dashboardet. I stedet, alle infotainment viser, herunder navigation, findes nu på alle digitale 12. 3 i instrumentpanelet, et træk, Audi siger sparer vægt og plads i kabinen.

Testing of new coupe enters latter stages in Arctic Circle with March public debut imminent. The new Audi TT is in its final stages of development ahead of its public debut at the Geneva motor show in March and planned showroom debut later this year.
Audi previewed the new TT as the Allroad Shooting Brake concept in Detroit last week. Testing of the final production car is now taking place in the Arctic Circle with the full reveal only weeks away.
Underpinning the new TT is a version of Volkswagen Groups MQB platform. Engines will also be sourced from the MQB family, meaning 1. 8-litre and 2. 0-litre petrols and a 2. 0-litre diesel will make up the core range.
The new TT will be one of the first Audis to usher in the firms evolving look, designed to give models a more distinct appearance rather than the Russian doll-style look of its present model range. The firm has also spoken of its desire to capture some of the styling success of the original TT in its third generation.
Coupe and cabriolet versions of the TT are planned initially, with a more rugged version inspired by the Detroit concept also a possibility according to technical chief Ulrich Hackenberg.
There is a trend for crossovers, shooting brakes and Allroad models, and we combined the TT with these concepts, he said. The TT has more potential now than in its history. It can be different concepts and segments. A more rugged TT definitely has potential.
Although the production TT will be made mainly of aluminium, it is highly likely that at least one future high-performance TT — hinted at by the concepts 288bhp, 199lb ft TFSI petrol engine — will be partly constructed from CFRP. The concept was also powered by electric motors driving the wheels, boosting its outputs to 402bhp and 480lb ft and raising the prospect of a fast hybrid model in the future.
Audi marketing boss Luca de Meo said: The original Audi TT had a huge impact on the market and the image of Audi. We know the new car must be a leader in technology and design especially, and it is crucial that the new car continues our success in the market.
The interior of the new TT was revealed at the CES show in Las Vegas earlier this month.
In a radical departure from the industry norm, the interior doesnt feature a separate infotainment display in the centre of the dashboard. Instead, all infotainment displays, including the navigation, are now found on the all-digital 12. 3in instrument cluster, a move Audi says saves weight and space in the cabin.
