Audi TT-RS Limited Edition S Tronic Launched in Australia


Visitors to the 2011 Australian International Motor Show in Melbourne will witness the unveil of the Audi TT-RS Limited Edition S Tronic. With only 45 units being made for Australia, the TT-RS features the 7-speed S tronic transmission in addition to $8,460 of additional equipment at no extra cost.

The package includes black exterior styling package, metallic paint, 19-inch wheels in titanium finish, sports exhaust system, adaptive headlights, BOSE sound system, extended leather interior package, and LED interior package.

The TT-RS Limited Edition is equipped by a 2.5-liter 5-cylinder TFSI engine with 335 hp and 450 Nm of torque. It accelerates from 0-100 km/h in just 4.3 seconds - 0.3 seconds faster than the 6-speed model and reached a top speed of 250 km/h.

According to Audi, the seventh gear is configured as a high-geared overdrive which reduces engine speed at highway speeds, thus cutting fuel consumption. Allowing the model to consume an average of 8.5-liter/100km using the European combined cycle, and emit 197 g/km of CO2.

Also aiding in its performance, the S tronic transmission comes with a built-in launch control function. Maximum power and minimum wheel spin through the quattrro AWD system is the result.
