2023-12-14 EST 02:30:49

Speaking to Car Advice at the international launch of the TT Coupe, Audi interior designer Artur Deponte confirmed the company will be bring a new TT Roadster at the 2014 Paris Motor Show which is happening next month.

TT Roadster to have neck heater system

Although Deponte didn’t go into specifics about the car, he hinted that the model will feature a neck heater system that will be integrated into the repositioned climate controls, which are now located inside each of the five face-level air vents in the cabin.

He further mentioned that seat heating buttons have been grouped on each of the far vents specific to each of the front passenger because each seat heater was also specific to each side only.

TT-RS to come

Technical project manager Markus Siewart additionally squashed rumours of the next Audi TT RS variant making use of a four-cylinder unit.

“We will bring an RS as well,” said Siewart. “It’s obvious because it’s a successful car, people loved it, people ask for the new one. And why not? There’s no reason not to do it.

“It will be a five-cylinder, and it was a successful car for us, it was engine of the year several times. I can’t tell you about horsepower or kilowatts, but it will be more than the outgoing TT RS.”

*Pictured is the 2013 Audi-TTS Roadster Competition.
