8 Supercars The Audi TT RS Will Match To 62mph
Believe it or not, the new 395bhp TT RS is able to accelerate as quickly as these exotic supercars
The world’s motoring press let out a collective gasp last week when Audi released its new TT RS. The reason was the performance it’s packing: its 2.5-litre, turbocharged five-cylinder engine is good for a massive 395bhp, making 0-62mph possible in just 3.7 seconds.
It’s that last figure we want to focus on, as it means this jumped-up junior coupe is able to dispatch the benchmark 0-62mph sprint in exactly the same time as some considerably more exotic - and expensive - supercars, including a few from Audi’s own stable:
Pagani Zonda F
Audi R8 V10 Spyder
Audi R8 V10 Plus (first-gen)
Jaguar XJ220
Aston Martin One-77
Mercedes SLR McLaren 722
Porsche 911 Turbo (997)
Lamborghini Murcielago (6.2)

Daaaaammmnnn, the new TT RS is lit
What’s the point of this speed when you’re limited by the speed of the car you are tailgating
Probably only two real reasons for this.
1) Good 4WD system
2) Weight
Very impressed with the news on this new RS, if only I had the cash.
Correction, it’s AWD
3) understeer
Yeah sure, only 2 reasons, all you need is a lightweight car and 4WD, the near enough 400bhp engine has no part to play here…
Doesn’t the SLR McLaren 722 have 722 hp?
No, it called 722 cause in the 1955 Moss/Jenkinson car (Mercedes), #722, left Brescia at 07:22.
Ooh i wonder how well they will take to some mods!
ABT will do wonder to this car judging by their previous success with 5 pot audis
If the hairdresser has to work till 4.55, but the stores close at 5
WOW! The only thing more upmarket than that will be price :-)
in other words.. you don’t need to spend a million bucks to have speed
well…If you’re only measuring to 60 yeah! If you want to go over 200mph then you either have to spend a crap ton on a supercar, spend a hell of a lot of money modifying a supra/gtr or buy a nasty ass hellcat.
Bmw m5 e60 under 20k euros 320kph +
That moment when you can’t distinguish between speed and acceleration :)
Eh…I’m still not impressed. Audis were never interesting to me. Sorry.
Cool. Still, the other cars are way cooler.
Another soulless box claiming to be better than the supercars, nothing new, civic has pulled this last year with it’s nurburgring time.
