2019 Audi TTS Review: End Of An Era?

The Audi TT has been a popular sports car ever since its initial release in 1998, but as time has gone by sales for the the 2+2 coupe have fallen, meaning this could be the last TT we see.
However, the TT in this video isn't just ANY TT - this is the TTS. That means it's more aggressive, sportier, but more importantly, faster. Oh, the ride height has also been dropped by 10mm just for good measure.
Providing the power is a 2.0 litre turbocharged petrol which kicks out 306hp with 400Nm of torque. This power is mated exclusively to Audi's quattro all wheel drive system, and a 7-speed S Tronic gearbox. All these factors combined mean that this sports car is able to hit 62mph in just 4.5 seconds, and the top speed is a very Germanic 155mph.

Apologies for the re-upload; the original video had errors in the title...

[@Brmmalesela]

A piece of history that will never be repeated. Am a proud onwer of a TTS and the aim is to drive and enjoy it until I return to dust. This is a true iconic design and lucky are those in possession of it.

I am an old guy...have had all of the 2 previous generations of the TT. My TTS at 296 hp is a great daily driver, I understand what the reviewer said, but I still like it. Does every thing I want it to..great on the twisties...leaves the bad drivers behind too...but yeah, I am biased and I like it.!

I have a 1990 ZR-1 as my forever sports car and it offers that raw, visceral experience that you can't get from

Totally agree with what you're saying, I've owned two MK2 TT's in manual and done 180,000 miles between them and loved every second of every mile. Then I bought a Mk3 TT Quattro S Tronic and it was as dull as dishwater. Very refined very sophisticated and very fast but dull. For me the biggest issue was the auto box which completely removed the driving experience. The sports car had disappeared and it felt like I was just driving a fast car but certainly not an engaging sports car. After six months of dullness I sold it and bought a 2016 manual Cayman 981 2.7 flat six. 0 to 60 in 5.7 seconds and just what a great drivers car it is. Also I still own the Mk 2 TT which I hadn't sold, with its 102,000 miles on the clock and 0 to 60 in 6.7 seconds is still a fantastic car to drive.

Getting a brand new 2022 TTS this weekend. So I hope they continue making it. I enjoyed your video. I concur ... it's a fun car, very fast, very grippy, quite thrusty. On my two test drives I felt it wanted to be set free to run away in abandon but was being held back just a tad. I'm no experienced performance driver, just a normal stick shift everyday driver, so my views will change once I own and drive this car daily.

The engine noise, or lack of it, is only a problem if you're ten years old.

Everything points to 2021 being their last run. It’s now or never. I don’t know how but I am getting it or I’m getting it.

[@Moody-Media]

It’s named after a motorcycle race because the 4 companies which came together to make Audi (hints the four rings logo) were more of motorcycle companies

[@michaelmich00]

thats because its a 4wd, every 4wd is boring, but fast and very good in handling, which we need as humans

[@DHODN]

That colour is beautiful it's a shame it's only on the facelifted models :( too expensive for me right now. I want to get a 15 or 16 plate.

[@disturbed250]

Wonder if they fixed the never ending seat trim fault...

[@nilsbuer]

The reason for the rear seats is only to tell your wife that you buy a car with four seats. The 911 seats are also useless.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Really enjoyed this review, Aaron! You clearly put a lot of work into it, as it had a very different look and different scenery. It is a shame that the TT is being discontinued, as I remember when they first came out and how desirable they were. This one is also a lovely looking car, and I don't think I would mind owning one either....

[@trulsvatne4345]

The link is NSU - they produced motorbikes AND cars, namely the NSU 1200 TTS

[@Jvilleman400]

Why in America is this car the same price as the B9 S5?

[@philzvids3577]

The rear seats are tiny so if you don't need them the convertible two seat roadster could be the way forward. I have a MK2 roadster and it makes a good daily driver.

[@cale262]

Waiting to see the next iteration of the TT... I don't think it is the end of this iconic line, we will see an electric version in the future. You really should have reviewed the RS, it is miles ahead of the S, it's not just "sound".

[@itaybutavia1204]

My dream car !

[@MarkJT1000]

Unfortunately like most other reviewers you get it wrong. The TT isn't a sports car, its a "sporty" coupe. It is designed and intended to appeal to those who want a car that looks exciting and can go fast and handle bends but will still keep you safe and is perfectly usable as a daily driver. Not everybody wants to be wrestling with their car on its limits with their rear end slide out in the wet, on their way to work.
