The Audi TT dates back to 1998 where the radically-styled first-generation model debuted. Since then, two other generations have been released, all building on the marque's prestige, making this a very good car.
Who is the Audi TT a good car for?
The Audi TT is an ideal car for those looking for a compact coupe or roadster that offers safety, high performance and good looks in a reasonably affordable package.
Is the Audi TT a good first car?
The TT range is compact and easy to manoeuvre, however, with only the TTS and TT RS available, we feel as though these cars offer too much performance for a first-time driver.
Is the Audi TT a good family car?
Despite a 305-litre boot and a solid 5-Star Euro NCAP safety rating, the TT is certainly not a good option for a family as it is too small.
Is there a Hybrid Audi TT?
As one of the brand's last internal combustion engine-only offerings, there is currently no hybrid variant in the model range.

What’s it like to drive?
Reviewers' opinion
"The TT RS is the most user-friendly sports car I’ve driven in a very long time. You’ll fall for it because it’s fast, it looks ferocious, it sounds sensational and will probably make you feel a lot better about your life in general. It sure beats bawling your eyes out in the psychologist’s chaise longue week after a week!"

What does it look like?
Exterior
Interior
What is the Audi A6 like inside?
"The TT RS has never been this masculine. The completely redrawn front end and the striking rear end give it a dynamic appearance. The quattro logo in a matt titanium-look is positioned in the lower section of the aluminium grill with its matt black Singleframe. The lateral air inlets, which have been enlarged once again, are each divided by vertical strips on the inside and outside. For cooling purposes there are additional radiators located behind the typical RS honeycomb grill. The lateral air inlets that extend almost all the way to the front wheel wells make the new TT RS appear extremely wide."- Audi
Style
As a compact sportscar, the TT is an eye-catching product both inside and out with an emphasis on minimalist style inside and compact sportiness when looking at its exterior, regardless of the model chosen.
