The updated Audi TT Coupe and TT Roadster have been spotted with camouflaged bumpers and RS trinkets, ahead of a 2018 launch
Audi has a facelifted TT in the works, and images obtained by Auto Express of these camouflaged Coupe and Roadster models show they’re already undergoing testing. Both cars are expected to go on sale in the UK later in 2018.
First up is the TT Coupe, which was spotted on a snow-covered road undergoing winter development. Both the front and rear bumpers are camouflaged but the rest of the body can be seen in its natural black paint scheme. The increasingly popular honeycomb mesh grille design features on this TT hardtop test mule, replacing the existing horizontal bar design.
However, given the central dual exhaust design at the rear, this is likely to be the standard TFSI petrol model rather than the fire-breathing TT RS. The tiny alloy wheels aren’t representative of the production car, as this version appears to be running on winter tyres.
In addition, we expect the 2018 cars to feature mildly updated lights front and rear, as well as quality and trim improvements inside. It’s likely Audi will choose to keep the current car’s Virtual Cockpit setup, which replaces the central screen available elsewhere in the model range. Space and practicality will be unaffected.
