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)

It’s 62 rather than 60 that the TT RS manages in 3.7 seconds, so it’ll actually be quicker than a lot of those…
Love how the 1987 porsche 959 is still bossing it against all this modern stuff
This is awesome…
Audis are insane. That’s why I drive one.
Wow. I need to cop this,
Why is audi making the New TT as fast as the r8? Where is the logic? Or why is the r8 so slow?
the R8 has a much higher top speed and much better handling dynamics etc… the only reason this beats the current R8 V10 spider is because the R8 weighs more (being the bigger car/ and a convertible)
Looking at all the aspects of performance, I believe acceleration is the only one which the TT wins against the R8
major bragging rights there
i’m sorry.. but it does not match a 997 Turbo to 62Mph. That car has been clocked time and time again at 3 seconds flat with is PDK box.
Isn’t that the turbo s model? and this will be run through offical reported figures
Early 997 Turbos had the Tiptronic S automatic; not the PDK. Even then, the Tiptronic S could get to 62 in 3.6 seconds, but the manual version could hit 0-62 in about 3.9 seconds. So the manual car actually does fall short of the Audi.
That merc looks sexy though
But what gonna happen after 62mph?
about another 115 mph
Now you can tailgate cars faster…………
