2.0TFSi to get quattro

J_C · 04-03-2008, 12:34 PM

Audi has heeded calls for a quattro AWD version of the entry-level 2.0 TFSI TT coupe, finally announcing it will add the new model to its lineup next month along with the new TTS performance variant. Both the 2.0L Coupe and Roadster models will now be available with the permanent all-wheel drive system, and both come standard with a S-tronic automatic transmission:

They had to given that the 2.0TDi has quattro. Strange gearbox comment though.

That comment wont have come from Audi, DSG/Stronic or whatever they fancy calling it this week is an automated manual.

Indeed. They boys on the TT forum can't accept that haldex has limitations but then again very few of them will have driven a torsen quattro car.

Having had a Haldex 8P A3 and a B7 A4 I'd go Torsen every day... [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/169144-ok.gif[/img]

Having owned a load of torsen cars, my TT quattro has come as a disappointment when the roads are slippy. Its still plenty useful on a dry day mind you.

Oh bloody hell, what on earth model should I get next???? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yelrotflmao.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/sportifs2.gif[/img]

Thing is, if you spec the 2.0T quattro up with similar things to the TTS it starts to reach the same price (assuming the 2.0T quattro will be about £3.5K more than FWD) so why would you not go for the TTS? Why is it only going to be S-tronic as well - thats weird. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

and does it mean the FWD variant is going to be worth about £4.45????? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/SAUER0421.GIF[/img]
