The updated 2019 Audi TT RS range has been revealed ahead of an Australian launch later this year.
 
Both the coupe and roadster receive mild style changes which are largely confined to what Audi calls a “redrawn front end” along with a new fixed rear wing at the rear.
 
LED headlights are standard, however, matrix LED headlights and OLED reversing lights are optional.
 
Buyers can choose from eight different colours, three of which are new and include Pulse orange, Turbo blue and the RS-specific Kyalami green.
 
Changes to the interior are also minor, Alcantara sports seats are carried over as is the 12.3-inch Virtual Cockpit display that makes up the instrument cluster.
 
There is a new RS design package that adds red or blue highlights to the air vents, seat belts, and the floor mats with the RS logo, while the extended RS design package also offers contrasting design elements on the seats and centre console.
 
The 2.5-litre turbocharged five-cylinder petrol engine producing 294kW of power and 480Nm of torque is also carried over from the outgoing model.
 
Drive is sent to Audi’s quattro permanent all-wheel drive system through a seven-speed S tronic dual-clutch automatic.
 
Audi quotes a 0-100km/h sprint time of 3.7 seconds for the coupe and an electronically-limited top speed of 250km/h, tick the right options and this increases to 280km/h.
 
The updated Audi TT RS is expected to arrive in Australia before the end of the year. Specifications and pricing will be announced closer to the local launch.
