With a particularly masculine front skirt add on, ABT Sportsline lends the much more edgy face of the “TT III“ now an even more pronounced look. Specially designed mirror caps and black 20’’ DR alloy wheels adorn the side of the car to be shown. Of course, there are alternative designs, finishes and sizes as well. The highlight of the set is the ABT Sportsline-refined rear. While the serial version with its retractable spoiler and round back is rather elegant, the Bavarians use a fixed wing, which makes the car appear more aggressive and racy. A rear skirt insert with two additional side attachments that underscore the sport coupé’s width and a striking four-pipe rear muffler complete this impression.
The car that was shown in Essen uses an ABT Power uprating based upon the 2.0 TFSI to turn 230 hp/169 kW into about 310 hp/228 kW. In combination with the new TT’s compact dimensions and low weight, this car’s performance may not be experienced live at the booth but can certainly be guessed at. “Looks fast and is fast, too,” Hans-Jürgen Abt summarises the philosophy behind the car.
