Audi TT Sportback Concept: The family grows

In the beginning there was the TT Coupé and the TT Roadster came and discovering this version Sportback, we say that there will soon cut version 4/5 doors.
So it is this version that Audi TT Sportback will come positioned in front of the Mercedes Benz CLA rather than the A3 Sedan as one might think until now. Through skits teaser, illustration we offered last week, we have already an idea of ​​what some will find TT denatured and the other since joining appreciate a nice, sporty design with side undeniable practice.

This mixture of TT and Audi Sportback allows to expand its offer and to best cover the various segments of the market even if it has to give a little less consistency in the range. It is however recalled that Audi bosses have announced that there are already some time that there would be a forward TT range made of usual cut and roadsters but also other bodies. This version is a Sportback and TT Off Road Concept earlier this year another!
This Audi TT Sportback takes the typical design of the coupe (no chrome) but lengthens as it sees its length grow by nearly 30 cm to allow comfortable installing both rear passengers and their easy access via the two additional doors. With 4.47 m long, 1.89 m wide and 1.38 m high and 2.63 m wheelbase model departs from the principle of compactness which normally "law" in the TT range.
Built on the MQB platform, almost family cut should guarantee the same serene road manners, easy and effective that the last group of products that use the same base.

The interior is identical to the TT coupe amount to B then it differs by offering two beautiful individual rear seats and enough trunk to put luggage for 4 travelers. We appreciate the beautiful interior trim and upholstery in beige leather with stitching oranges that give the impression of space in this TT Sportback. Audi has taken the opportunity to create a set of luggage specifically adapted to the trunk of the car.

This new Audi Quattro advantage of the Haldex transmission and latest dual-clutch gearbox S Tronic seven-speed with steering wheel shift paddles. This transmission is associated with the latest evolution of the EA888 engine, ie the L4 2.0 L TFSI in its strong version of 400 hp and 450 Nm of torque. If Vmax is usually self-limited series of 250 km / h, TT Sportback folds the exercise of 0 to 100 km / h in just 3.9 seconds. Audi announces a combined consumption of 7.0 L / 100 km and CO2 emissions amounting to 162 g / km.

This very precise figure suggests that this show car is on track in the office of R & D engineers from the Bavarian firm. It remains to wait for official confirmation from the direction of Audi but it is highly suggested that it is only a matter of weeks or months at most.
