2011 Audi TT review

Few things command respect as an Audi car and very few cars in history would go down and scream that my design language is original. Moreover, with the few cars around here, there is very much a chance that the TT would indeed be a part of all the brouhaha over their design language. Infact, every iteration of the Audi TT has been a revelation in itself. Over the years, the Audi TT diversified into various other branches such as a convertible form and the original coupe form. The earlier Audi TT was a wonderful car and the new 2011 Audi TT bows down to the rigors of the new age Audi styling with a front end which has been hopped up a bit. Now, the Audi doesn’t get styling updates too often, plus there is a new style mantra going on in Audi. We got a 2011 Audi TT for a review with us, though, it was there only for 2 days, but still each and every road tester out here could manage to envisage a glimpse of what the TT has to offer with respect to real life practicality and also fun at the same time.

Looks

Heads on, it is difficult to distinguish the 2011 Audi TT with its siblings, however the slightly raised stance would give away that this is a TT afterall. Unlike other Audi cars here in North America, this one does have fog lamps as part of the package. Angel eyes LED lamps can be turned off though. The edges have been smoothened out more and the car feels like the first generation TT with more modern cues. The one that we had for the review was the coupe one and had the 19 inch wheels as part of the package. The OEM alloy wheel design though could have been better. The twin tail pipes, however, are carried over from each of the previous Audi TT models. The grille accents are new, so are the bumpers as also the chrome trim running across the length of the car. The rear design especially that of the tail lamps is more 3D in nature and has that feel good factor when lit up.
