Audi Meraikan Ulangtahun Ke 40 Quattro Dengan Special TT RS Ini

Pejam celik sudah 4 dekad berlalu sejak quattro merevolusikan sukan permotoran dan persepsi jenama Audi. Untuk meraikan teknologi penting pacuan semua roda ini, Audi telah mencipta “TT RS 40 tahun quattro”, atau TT RS 40 YOQ dari sini dan seterusnya.

TT RS 40 YOQ dicat dengan warna Alpine White yang sama dengan Audi Sport quattro S1 yang dipandu Walter Röhrl di Pikes Peak pada tahun 1987. Ia juga menampilkan pelekat dan warna yang serupa dengan kereta itu.

Pengubahsuaian lain termasuk ventilasi udara tengah gloss carbon dan kit aero berwarna hitam gloss.

Seperti TT RS biasa, TT RS 40 YOQ dikuasakan oleh motor TFSI 2.5 liter inline-5. Sebilangan besar prestasi tidak berubah; 400PS, tork 480Nm, dan 0-100km / j dalam 3.7 saat. Walau bagaimanapun, kelajuan tertinggi kini telah meningkat menjadi 280km / j keluar kotak dengan TT RS 40 YOQ ini. Pada TT RS standard, meningkatkan kelajuan tertinggi dari 250km / j menjadi 280km / j adalah pilihan kos, dan masih ada.

Kokpit mendapat beberapa peningkatan, tetapi beberapa daripadanya ialah pilihan. Pelanggan dapat mengganti tempat duduk belakang dengan penyangga tali silang yang terbuat dari serat karbon. Ini menurunkan berat badan sebanyak 16kg dan meningkatkan kekakuan kilasan. Alcantara hitam dan kulitnya berbeza dengan jahitan putih dan jalur warisan. Malah tikar lantai hitam mempunyai perpaipan putih dan jahitan kontras.

KENYATAAN MEDIA

Audi celebrates 40 years of quattro and presents a special edition of its top-of-the-line model in the TT model line. The Audi TT RS 40 years of quattro is celebrating the success story of quattro drive in impressive style.

The TT RS 40 years of quattro draws on the power of the 2.5 TFSI engine from Audi Sport. The five-cylinder engine, which has won the “International Engine of the Year Award” nine years running, produces 294 kW (400 PS) and develops maximum torque of 480 Nm (354.0 lb-ft). The quattro permanent all-wheel drive distributes the power as required between the front and rear axles using a multi-plate clutch. Wheel-selective torque control makes handling even more agile and safer. It gently brakes the wheels on the inside of the curve when cornering at speed while increasing the drive torque to the wheels on the outside of the curve. The driver can influence the quattro drive and other components such as steering, seven-speed S tronic, exhaust flaps and engine characteristics using the Audi drive select dynamic handling system.

The top speed of the TT RS 40 years of quattro is raised to 280 km/h (174.0 mph) as standard. The sport compact sprints from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62.1 mph) in only 3.7 seconds.

The beat of the background music is set by the characteristic five-cylinder firing sequence: 1-2-4-5-3. Firing alternates between directly adjacent cylinders and those far apart from one another.

The Audi TT RS 40 years of quattro painted in Alpine white self-confidently shows off its motorsport heritage. The decals on the hood, shoulders, roof and rear is reminiscent of the livery of the specially modified Audi Sport quattro S1 that Walter Röhrl drove to victory in 1987 in the legendary Pikes Peak race in the United States.

The hood with central air vent in gloss carbon adds another visual highlight while facilitating engine compartment ventilation – the opening allows the accumulated heat to escape even faster. The Aero kit developed in the wind tunnel enhances performance and handling on fast bends and significantly improves the compact sports car’s aerodynamics. The kit consists of side flics in gloss black on the front apron and a front splitter. The side sill trims transition to the striking rear with its fixed wing, spoiler side sections and diffuser. The aerodynamic measures result in a perfectly balanced complete package with only around nine kilograms (19.8 lb) of uplift at the front axle and around five kilograms (11.0 lb) of downforce at the rear axle at maximum speed. The relationship between aerodynamic drag and uplift is ideally balanced. This interaction was explicitly considered during development in the wind tunnel.

Large quattro letters on the doors make the essence of the special model abundantly clear. The partially matt rear quarter windows also feature the “40 years of quattro” logo. The side sills are painted black, the side sill inserts and the housings of the exterior mirrors, the blade and the Audi rings are finished in gloss black. At the front axle, ventilated and perforated steel discs with red-painted brake calipers are in action behind the white-painted 20-inch alloy wheels.

The interior of the new TT RS 40 years of quattro with its cockpit focused squarely on the driver features numerous upgrades. The sporty character of the 2+2-seater comes across even more clearly as a result. As an option, the customer can replace the rear bench with a strut cross brace made of carbon – reducing weight by around 16 kilograms (35.3 lb) and improving torsional rigidity. All of which brings the special model even closer to motorsport – with an even more intense driving sound.

Black Alcantara is used on the door trims and on the RS sport leather steering wheel with 12 o’clock marker in white. Black leather with white contrasting stitching adorns the center armrest, the door armrests and the center console. Heritage stripes on the Alpine white inlay tie in with the decals on the exterior. The floor mats in black with white piping and contrasting stitching are finished off with an embroidered RS. The RS sport seats in black fine Nappa leather with a seat center panel in black Alcantara and honeycomb pattern in white feature an exclusive embroidered “40 years of quattro” at shoulder level. A consecutively numbered badge on the S tronic selector lever makes each of the 40 units unique.

The Audi TT RS 40 years of quattro will go on sale in Germany in October 2020. There it will cost 114,040 euros or 111,165.04 euros with the reduced rate of value-added tax.
