The TTS is powered by an extensively modified version of the 2.0-litre Turbo FSI gasoline engine, that delivers 272 hp and a peak torque of 350Nm between 2,500 and 5,000rpm.
Performace figures are a 0-100 km/h sprint time of 5.4 seconds (5.6 seconds for the Roadster), a top speed limited to 155mph (250 km/h) and an average fuel consumption of 29.7 mpg (29.3 mpg for the Roadster).
Technical highlights include the quattro permanent all-wheel drive with S tronic dual clutch transmission and the magnetic ride system, which is offered as a standard. Suspension, steering and brakes were revised to suite the enhanced performances.
The TTS Roadster comes with an electrohydraulic drive for the soft top that integrates a a power wind deflector and a load-through facility.

The front end features newly designed bi-xenon headlamps incorporating LED strip daytime running lights, a single-frame grill in a platinum gray finish which is embellished with
slender chrome strips and a redesigned front apron incorporating larger air intakes and aluminium-look door mirror housings.
The profile view is enhanced by deeper side skirts and exclusive 18-inch alloy wheels, which can be swapped for 19-inch alternatives at extra cost, while at the rear a revised muscular rear bumper with - for the first time in a TT – four tailpipes protruding from its extended diffuser subtly conveys the newcomer’s extra performance potential.
The spoiler on the TTS extends automatically when the speed reaches 120 km/h (74.56 mph) and retracts again when it drops back to 80 km/h (49.71 mph).

The Roadster features an electrohydraulically operated soft top which opens and closes in twelve seconds, even on the move at speeds below 50 km/h (31.07 mph). The soft top incorporates a large glass rear window and folds in a "Z" shape.
Neither a tonneau cover nor a
cover flap is needed.
Extra matting between the headlining and the outer skin improves insulation, and an electrically extending/retracting wind deflector shields the occupants' necks from drafts when the hood is down.
The interior is dominated by the multifunctional leather sports steering wheel.
The new deep-set sports seats are trimmed
in a mixture of leather and Alcantara, with Silk Nappa leather seat upholstery in
four different color combinations available as an option.
