The four-ringed German automaker recently announced the new TT RS will be available for order in the UK by late September with deliveries set to begin in November. First unveiled at the 2016 Beijing Motor Show, the new Audi TT RS is the most powerful TT ever to enter series production. Audi is offering its newest sports car in both, Coupe and Roadster form. In terms of design, the new Audi TT RS sports large air inlets, a Singleframe grille with a new honeycomb lattice and quattro logo, a fixed rear wing sitting on two thin double struts, diffuser insert with four vertical fins, and elliptical tailpipes. Another standout feature is the optional Matrix OLED rear lights, thus becoming the first series-production Audi to receive the technology.
