Overview

The 2017 Audi TT makes for an excellent contender in the compact coupe class. With standalone trim on offer, the Audi TT has a base MSRP of $43,500. It competes directly with the Mercedes-Benz C-Class, the BMW 2 Series, and the Cadillac ATS. Only a 2.0L Turbo Inline-4 engine is offered, mated to a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Together, they produce 220 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. Accelerating from 0-60 in 5.4 seconds, the TT maintains a combined fuel economy of 26 MPG. Audi offers the TT in 10 stunning colors, with the Scuba Blue Metallic being a particular favorite of ours.

Buying Advice

You don’t have the trim choice but there are a few available packages on offer that should be able to fill the features gap. We recommend the Technology Package for $2,950 and S Sport Seat Package for $1,000.
