Audi lately released its all-new, third-generation TT, which at present can be found in conventional TT and also sportier TTS variants. The one we’re anticipating the most nonetheless is the new TT RS, which we’re expecting on the marketplace at some time following year, as a 2017 model.
This video from YouTube customer Gumbal illustrates just what is believed to be a test burro for the brand-new TT RS. It might just look like the third-gen TTS, yet the audio it makes as it checks hard at the Nürburgring leads us to think that it is loading a five-cylinder engine rather than the four-cylinder device discovered in the TT and TTS variations.
That makes good sense as the brand-new TT RS is anticipated to include an enhanced version of the turbocharged 2.5-liter five-cylinder fitted to the previous TT RS along with the most up to date RS 3 Sportback. In the RS 3 the engine is tuned to deliver 362 horsepower, however we’re anticipating substantially much more for the TT RS. Taking into consideration the last TT RS had 360 hp at hand, figure on something near 400 hp for the latest version.
Regretfully, we hear that a manual transmission will certainly no longer be supplied. That implies the single transmission will certainly be a seven-speed dual-clutch unit. When it comes to styling, Audi’s TT Clubsport Turbo principle, which likewise takes place to pack a turbocharged five-cylinder factory, hints at just what’s ahead.
