Unique design elements
Distinguished design features define the Audi TT Final Edition, which is only available as a Roadster and cloaked in the exclusive Goodwood Green Pearl effect paint from Audi. This color, once a series production option for the first generation Audi TT Roadster, is complemented by Platinum Gray Matte exterior bumper trim and side elements seamlessly integrated with the S-Line exterior. Notably, this marks the debut of the S Line exterior on the third generation Audi TT Roadster, omitting S-Line badging for heightened exclusivity. Adding to the unique exterior, a gray convertible top, previously featured only on the 2019 TT Roadster 20th Anniversary edition, employs an electrohydraulic drive system, allowing the roof to raise and lower in just 10 seconds while the vehicle is in motion at speeds of up to 31 mph.
Inside the Audi TT Final Edition, Palomino Brown leather adorns the interior, paying homage to the iconic baseball stitch leather of the first generation. This classic pairing with the Audi exclusive Goodwood Green exterior serves as a timeless tribute to the original TT Roadster. The 2023 Audi TT Final Edition boasts a standard extended leather package, enveloping the door armrests and center console in Palomino Brown leather and stitching, while black leather covers the airbag cap and instrument cluster hood. Audi exclusive Palomino Brown stitching enhances the steering wheel and gear selector boot, while the floor mats are finished with Palomino Brown leather piping and stitching, completing the interior’s polished aesthetic.
Adding to the luxurious touches, the TT Roadster’s S sport seats feature neck-level heating for warmth on chilly top-down days and incorporate built-in seatbelt microphones for optimal Bluetooth and voice recognition functionality. To emphasize its sporty character, the interior surfaces of the Audi TT Roadster Final Edition are adorned with Carbon fiber inlays.
Unmatched TT Performance:
The Audi TT Roadster Final Edition boasts legendary performance features, including standard 20×9-inch 10-Y-spoke design forged wheels and 255/30 R20 92Y XL summer tires borrowed from the dynamic TTS. Drawing inspiration from the TTS, the Audi magnetic ride suspension system adapts damping forces based on driving conditions, enhancing driving dynamics and lowering the center of gravity by 10mm compared to the standard suspension.
Under the hood, the TT Roadster houses a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbocharged engine delivering 228 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a 7-speed S tronic dual-clutch transmission and Quattro all-wheel drive, the TT Roadster accelerates from 0-60 mph in just 5.5 seconds.
A Name Steeped in History:
The “TT” model name pays homage to the historic Tourist Trophy on the Isle of Man, one of the world’s oldest motorsports events, where Auto Union brands NSU and DKW achieved notable success with their motorcycles. NSU later adopted the TT nomenclature to commemorate its race championship on the sporty small car – the TT Prinz.
In 1998, Audi introduced the TT Coupe, challenging conventional design with its Bauhaus-inspired aesthetic. The TT name itself signaled a departure from Audi’s usual nomenclature, emphasizing the novelty of the model line.
A Fond Farewell:
Throughout its history, the TT model line led the way in technology, introducing iconic design and technology firsts, such as the electronically deployable rear spoiler, Audi virtual cockpit, and the first Audi with available OLED taillights. The production of the Audi TT concludes with the 2023 model, marking the end of an era of iconic design for the brand with four rings.
Audi TT Roadster Final Edition Price:
The special edition is available for purchase in the U.S. market, priced at an MSRP of $67,800 plus a $1,095 destination charge.
