20 years after the original Audi TT was set loose, the facelifted version of the 2015 model has been announced.

The crux of the updated model revolves around updating the standard equipment available on the TT. Besides the driver-oriented Audi virtual cockpit, the basic version of the new model now features the Audi drive select dynamic handling system, a rain and light sensor, heated exterior mirrors and the multifunction steering wheel plus as standard.

The front-end now features a 3-dimensional grille with honeycomb inserts and matching air dams that flank it. The rear-end also features more honeycomb design around the rear diffuser.

Three new colour options will be available, namely: Cosmos Blue, Pulse Orange and Turbo Blue, the latter is only available on S-Line models.

Engines are likely to remain unchanged although Audi hasn’t specified any details yet. Audi did say that the facelifted model will be offered with a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed dual clutch ‘box.

The interior is also unchanged in design and aside from the additional standard equipment, remains a high-quality environment to enjoy driving from.

The facelifted TT will be available to order from September 2018, although South Africa will likely only see its shipment arrive late this year or early 2019.
