2001 Audi TT Roadster

Two rollover bars, which form an integral part of the body structure, ensure the Roadster's safety and rigidity. Precisely calculated reinforcements in the sill areas and sturdy transitions at the joints between the A and B-posts and the floor assembly give the TT Roadster its excellent torsional rigidity.

The soft top with its large heated glass rear window can be opened and folded down in a single action. An electro-hydraulic soft top (standard on the TT Roadster 3.2 quattro) and an electrically retractable wind deflector made of safety glass are also available. The wind deflector's rounded edge follows the outline of the two rollover bars and prevents unwelcome turbulence.

Active safety plays a central role in the TT Roadster. Its standard equipment comprises the Electronic Stabilization Program ESP including Electronic Differential Lock EDL, Electronic Brake-force Distribution EBD and Anti-Slip Regulation ASR.

Large disc brakes and ABS ensure outstanding deceleration figures. Ventilated brake discs are fitted at the front; the TT 3.2 quattro and 165 kW (225 bhp) TT Roadster 1.8 T quattro have them at the rear too.
