Vehicle Highlights

The 2009 Audi TT adds a new model to its roster, the TTS. Four-seat Coupe hatchback and two-seat Roadster convertible models are available. Base Coupes and Roadsters are called 2.0T and have front-wheel drive or Audi's quattro all-wheel drive. They use a turbocharged 200-hp 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine. Both body styles are also available as the AWD 3.2 quattro and use a 250-hp 3.2-liter V6. A 6-speed manual transmission is standard on 3.2s. Optional on those and standard on the 2.0T is a 6-speed automatic transmission. The TTS also gets a turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder, but in this guise, it makes 265 hp. The TTS only comes with the automatic transmission. It has standard 18-inch wheels, along with slightly sportier exterior styling and unique interior trim. Available safety equipment on all TTs includes ABS, traction control, antiskid system, and front side airbags. The 2009 Audi TT has standard leather upholstery and automatic climate control. A magnetic suspension system is standard on the TTS and optional on other models. It allows drivers to alter suspension settings for comfort or high-performance driving.

COMPETITION

Consumer Guide Automotive places each vehicle into one of 18 classes based on size, price, and market position. Offering more power and style than typical Sporty/Performance vehicles, Premium Sporty/Performance Cars usually cost much more and have more comfort and convenience equipment. Two-passenger convertibles and four-seat coupes rule the roost in this class.

Our Best Buys are the Audi A5 and Chevrolet Corvette. Our Recommended picks are the BMW 1-Series, Jaguar XK Series, Porsche Boxster, and Porsche Cayman.

New or significantly redesigned models include the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Mercedes-Benz SL-Class, Nissan GT-R, and Porsche 911.
