8 Supercars The Audi TT RS Will Match To 62mph

Believe it or not, the new 395bhp TT RS is able to accelerate as quickly as these exotic supercars
8 Supercars The Audi TT RS Will Match To 62mph

The world’s motoring press let out a collective gasp last week when Audi released its new TT RS. The reason was the performance it’s packing: its 2.5-litre, turbocharged five-cylinder engine is good for a massive 395bhp, making 0-62mph possible in just 3.7 seconds.

It’s that last figure we want to focus on, as it means this jumped-up junior coupe is able to dispatch the benchmark 0-62mph sprint in exactly the same time as some considerably more exotic - and expensive - supercars, including a few from Audi’s own stable:

It’s 62 rather than 60 that the TT RS manages in 3.7 seconds, so it’ll actually be quicker than a lot of those…

Why is audi making the New TT as fast as the r8? Where is the logic? Or why is the r8 so slow?

the R8 has a much higher top speed and much better handling dynamics etc… the only reason this beats the current R8 V10 spider is because the R8 weighs more (being the bigger car/ and a convertible)

Looking at all the aspects of performance, I believe acceleration is the only one which the TT wins against the R8

i’m sorry.. but it does not match a 997 Turbo to 62Mph. That car has been clocked time and time again at 3 seconds flat with is PDK box.

Isn’t that the turbo s model? and this will be run through offical reported figures

Early 997 Turbos had the Tiptronic S automatic; not the PDK. Even then, the Tiptronic S could get to 62 in 3.6 seconds, but the manual version could hit 0-62 in about 3.9 seconds. So the manual car actually does fall short of the Audi.
