Product Overview

Audi TT RS Roadster (Type 8J) is a subcompact convertible sports car in production from 2009 to 2014. It was powered by two tunes of turbocharged inline-5 engines that displaced 2.5 liters. Both manual and DCT were available, and quattro AWD is standard.
The interesting aspect of the TT RS is the reintroduction of Audi's inline-5 engine, now in turbocharged form and mounted transversely.
Utility-minded owners will have to keep in mind that the 250L (9cu-ft) cargo space may not be sufficient. Drivers who appreciate handling should keep in mind that the Audi TT RS Roadster uses MacPherson front suspension, which doesn't provide the best cornering performance.
