2017 Audi TT RS

Audi is launching a new generation of the TT. This third gen promises new styling and better performance. Long gone is the bubbly styling of the original car and this new TT has even more bold angles in its styling than the outgoing model. It still has some curves, but they are less flowing than the earlier cars.

The German luxury car maker recently announced the pricing of the all new Audi TT lineup all the way up to the TTS. The RS was left out of that as it is an entirely different performance beast.

The TT RS is rumored to get a larger turbocharger mated to the 2.5-liter five cylinder engine to push the power output to about 400 horsepower. This should allow for the sports car to launch from 0-60 mph in the low 4 second range. Speculation is that the top speed will be 175 mph.

So, just how much will this quick TT cost you? The Audi performance machine has not yet been confirmed for North American sale, but we feel it is very likely. If it does come to the US, expect that the TT RS will start upwards of the $60,000 range.
