About the Audi TT TT 8N
The first TT Coupé reached production in 1998, closely following Audi’s striking 1995 show car. Its rounded roof, circular detailing and clean surfaces made it a landmark of late-1990s car design. This early 180 PS version uses the 1.8-litre turbo engine, front-wheel drive and a five-speed manual. Later cars gained stability-related revisions and a small rear spoiler, while stronger quattro versions broadened the range.
