Audi TT: Impressions!

Some more impressions of the new Audi TT.

Although sleeker, stretched and more streamlined than its predecessor, the all-new Audi TT doesnt seem as proportionally balanced as the first-generation model that dates back to 1998. The rear deck has been minimized so significantly that it all but disappears from view when looking at the car from the front three-quarter angle.

The sense of symmetry in the first-generation TT has been replaced with a forward-crouching stance, though the roofline on the new model is familiar. The new TT is 137 mm longer and 78 mm wider than its predecessor.

The broad, gentle curve of the hood is perhaps one of the most attractive and alluring surfaces on the car. The larger front grille and restyled headlights are consistent with the latest Audi design language.

Interior styling evolves circle motifs of the previous model with brushed aluminum trim and nicely stitched leather as before. The center stack is more squat and wide with three vents instead of two. The controls for the HVAC appear more intuitive than the fussy buttons of the old model.
