Three words that express the very essence of Audi. Vorsprung durch Technik isn't a slogan. It's our way of seeing the world. It is the driving force behind our history of innovation that continues into the 21st century. Indeed, many technologies that Audi pioneered remain in our cars today. Some are milestones in the history of the motorcar. Vorsprung durch Technik makes us who we are. To see more of its influence, just read on. From our beginnings in 1899, to the Auto Union team's Grand Prix successes in the 1930s and our more recent wins at Le Mans, we have always been at the forefront of the motor industry. 5 The Audi TT RS continues our proud history of innovation. The TT RS has a turbocharged 2.5-litre TFSI engine that produces 340PS and 450 Nm of torque ­ making it the most powerful TT we've ever produced. Lowered suspension and special spring/damper settings provide outstanding handling, and advanced aerodynamics ensure precise stability at all times. A high-performance chassis and quattro® permanent all-wheel-drive complete this exhilarating sports car. 6 7 7 quattro® The latest generation of the tried and tested quattro® permanent all-wheel-drive system has been adapted for an even better response to different driving situations. The varying speeds of the front and rear wheels are balanced swiftly and precisely and the control electronics of the electro-hydraulic multi-plate clutch take into account the various driving conditions. 8 There's direct drive for the front wheels via a differential gear and the multi-plate clutch controls the torque for the rear wheels. The map control for the multi-plate clutch allows extremely fast torque build-up, ensuring stability in bends and when driving in a straight line. The 5-cylinder powerplant in the TT RS delivers enormous power and a reinforced drivetrain features a new 6-speed, close-ratio, manual gearbox. All of these technologies combined make driving the TT RS an exhilarating experience. 9 Engine 2.5 TFSI engine The five-cylinder engine combines a turbocharger with FSI direct petrol injection, confirming the status of the TT RS as a high-performance sports car. The 2.5-litre TFSI engine is ultra-compact. Just 49 centimetres in length, and weighing 183 kilograms, it's perfectly suited for transverse installation in the TT RS. The crankcase is made of vermicular-graphite cast iron and this high-tech material is both strong and lightweight. Perfectly placed reinforcements enhance the block's loading, while the cylinder head, pistons, and connecting rods are also lightweight yet extremely strong. 10 Transmission and brakes The TT RS offers a fast-shifting manual transmission for smooth, efficient acceleration and a high-performance braking system to ensure this car stops as well as it goes. Short-shift manual transmission For fast, crisp gear changes in a sporty, manual set-up, the TT RS comes with short-shift manual transmission as standard. This simple yet effective gear-change pattern means that the gearstick has a shorter distance to travel between each shift-gate, minimising the effort you have to make with each up or down-shift, whilst maximising your driving enjoyment. High-performance braking system We created the 18-inch high-performance braking system in the TT RS with safety and control in mind. It features four-piston brake callipers painted in black with the RS logo on the front axle, as well as ventilated brake discs (370mm in diameter) at the front, drilled and designed using composite materials. All these features help the system to provide good stability even when the car's carrying a heavy load. 11 Efficiency At Audi, doing less is something we're trying to do more of. We're working to use less fuel, release less CO2 and waste less energy. It's why we've incorporated a number of more efficient technologies into the TT RS. Aerodynamics When it comes to efficiency, a car's shape matters. It's something we kept in mind when we created the TT RS, giving it a smooth, flowing design. As a result, its drag coefficient ­ a measure of aerodynamic resistance, which affects both fuel consumption and CO2 emissions ­ remains surprisingly low. 12 Gear change indicator Small changes to your driving style can also have a big impact on your fuel economy. The gear-change indicator in the TT RS is there to indicate the optimum gear to use for any given speed, encouraging early upshifts to ensure you don't burn more fuel than is necessary. Audi Space Frame® The TT RS features an aluminium Audi Space Frame® which is rigid, strong and incredibly light ­ keeping the car's weight down to a minimum. It means that as well as improving safety and agility, it also helps fuel consumption. 13 Standard model equipment All TT RS models have the following items of standard equipment Wheels, tyres and suspension 18" `5-double-spoke' design alloy wheels TT RS Sports suspension with dynamically tuned spring/damper combination and modified responsiveness Tyre Mobility System Seats Sports seats in Silk Nappa leather with contrasting stitching Heated seats Audio and communication Concert audio system ­ MP3 file-compatible single CD player and radio with 9 loudspeakers (140-Watt) and 5-channel amplifier including AUX-IN socket Safety and security TT RS 18" high-performance braking system.
