Sports Cars In India – 5. Audi TT


Instead of a hot hatch, a proper sports car will surely be quite enjoyable. We found a 2015 Audi TT, priced at Rs 45.95 Lakh, which is also Rs 15 Lakh cheaper than a brand new Golf GTI. Driven for only 15,900km, the Audi TT looks to be in good shape. In terms of features, the TT gets a fully digital instrument cluster, heated and ventilated seats, powered front seats, automatic climate control, and much more. Under the hood is a 2.0-litre turbo petrol engine producing 208bhp and 350Nm of torque along with a 6-speed AT and Quattro AWD. Plus, the car gets a limited-slip differential, making it even more fun to drive. The handling and agility of the car, along with the powerful mill, offer a fun-to-drive experience.
