About the Audi TT 8J
The second-generation Audi TT (8J) addressed the dynamic shortcomings of its predecessor by adopting the Audi Space Frame (ASF) technology, utilizing 69% aluminium to reduce weight and improve rigidity. This 2.0 TFSI variant features the EA113 engine, delivering a broad torque curve and punchy performance through the front wheels. While the original Mk1 was a pure design statement, the Mk2 offered a more focused driving experience with a sophisticated multi-link rear suspension and optional magnetic ride dampers. It remains a popular modern classic for its high-quality interior and timeless silhouette.
