2013 Audi TTS Coupe

Summary

Provided by NADAguides.com

Unchanged for the current model year, the 2013 Audi TTS is a luxury sports car performance oriented version of the Audi TT, available in coupe and roadster trim levels. The TTS is powered by a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder turbocharged engine that produces 265 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque, for a 0-60 time of 4.9 seconds. A 6-speed dual-clutch with electro-hydraulic control is paired with AWD to grant the TTS an EPA estimated 23 mpg city and 31mpg highway. Features include xenon headlights with LED daytime running lights, 19-inch wheels, retractable rear spoiler, heated leather seats, hill-hold assist, navigation system with a 6-CD changer, and premium leather seats. Safety is comprised of front airbags, thorax side airbags, front knee airbags, electronic stability control, traction control, anti-lock brake system, electronic brake distribution, and brake assist. The TTS is backed by a 4-year/50,000-mile warranty.

Benefits of Driving a 2013 Audi TTS Coupe

Underneath its iconic easily recognizable exterior, the TT is based on Audi's sturdy passenger car platform with quattro all-wheel-drive, making it a superb all-weather handler, yet it maintains good all around performance, with the turbocharged 2.0L engine pushing it to 60 mph in just 5.7 seconds--faster than both the Mercedes-Benz SLK 300 and the BMW Z4. The upgraded TT RS has a 360 horsepower 5-cylinder engine that offers intense performance in the same compact package. The new model's base price of under $60,000 makes it a great performance value.

What's new for 2013?

Audi has introduced the S-Line Competition package for 2013. Intended for buyers who want more aggressive looks and a bit more handling prowess from the base TT, it adds a more aggressive body kit, xenon headlights, a 10 mm reduction in ride height and black wheels.

Model Review

For 2013, the Audi TT is offered in both a coupe and roadster body style, both of which are built on Audi's improved aluminum space frame chassis, which consists of 69% aluminum, making it both lightweight and incredibly stiff.
