There is no doubt that the real highlight of the
Audi TT is its emotive design, both on the
exterior and in the interior. The engineers at
Audi had an ambitious development goal: to
meet all functional and quality standards as
well as the latest statutory requirements and
Audi’s high standards of safety without com-
promising the design concept and while retai-
ning the car’s full viability for everyday use.
Design
We at Audi firmly believe that the most
important thing about designing is that
actions speak louder than words. Suffice to
say, a good design speaks for itself.
The TT has a “wheel-hugging” design, that is
to say the entire body is styled around the
wheels. That also goes for the front and rear
bulges as well as the roof and window lines
and the low-slung passenger cabin.
Quattro power train
The TT will feature a new generation of Audi
technology and the new Haldex viscous cou-
pling, further emphasising the vehicle’s sporty
character.
Safety
Safety is paramount:
That’s why the TT is equipped with front air-
bags for the driver and front passenger.
The TT already complies with the new Euro-
pean safety laws which will come into effect in
the year 2003 as well as the tougher require-
ments according to the US Head Impact Pro-
tection Act.
