Sales of the new special 2019 Audi TT 20th
Anniversary edition model have now started in the US, paying homage to the TTS
Roadster concept that debuted at the 1995 Tokyo Motor Show. Audi USA says that the special edition TT will be
available in limited numbers, without specifying how many of the 999 planned
examples will reach the US market. The 20th Anniversary Edition will be
available in both Coupe and Roadster bodystyles.
The special 2019 Audi TT is offered in either Aviator Grey pearl metallic or
the US-exclusive Nimbus Grey metallic paint finish. All anniversary models will
come with a lovely Moccasin Brown Nappa leather upholstery that features the
iconic yellow baseball contrast stitching.
Other features of the limited 2019 Audi TT include
high-gloss black exterior trim detailing, model-specific 19-inch gunmetal alloy
wheels, a trumpet-style stainless steel exhaust and the OLED taillights that
are currently only available to the range-topping TT RS. Wrapping up the
changes is a set of the obligatory ‘20 Years of TT’ badges on the front
fenders, as well as inside the cabin.
Apart from the Mocassin Brown Nappa leather, the
cabin features S sport seats and all the latest upgrades from the facelifted
2019 TT model series, including a standard Audi phone box with wireless
charging and signal booster.
All anniversary models also come with the Technology
package as standard, which adds features like the MMI Navigation Plus, Apple
CarPlay and Android Auto, a Bang&Olufsen audio system and Audi Side Assist.
The new Audi TT 20th Anniversary Edition will be
available only with a 228hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, paired
to a seven-speed S Tronic dual-clutch transmission. Audi claims a 0-97 km/h in
5.2 seconds for the Coupe, and 5.5 seconds for the Roadster. Pricing for the 2019 Audi TT 20th
Anniversary Edition starts from US$ 52,900 (plus destination fees), with Roadster
models starting from US$ 56,800.
