Audi TT

摘要

The Audi TT has always been all about style. And the third-generation model, built on VW Group's versatile MQB architecture, delivers, inside and out. The exterior is a beautifully executed evolution of TT form and graphics. And as Gale pointed out during our design walk-around, the unbelievably crisp and sophisticated surfacing is as much an object lesson in VW Group's metal stamping capability as it is design. The interior is superbly minimalist. The integration of the HVAC controls into the vents themselves will become a widely copied feature. Audi's virtual cockpit is a virtuoso display of user interface software and hardware that drew mixed reviews from the judges. "My favorite part is the Google Maps feature," enthused Seabaugh. "I love being able to see a satellite view of the road ahead by doing no more than glancing down a couple degrees." There is so much information offered, and so many pathways with which to access it, however, that it can be a touch overwhelming to deal with at first. "Not a lot of it is intuitive," grumbled Loh. "I could see it causing accidents."
