AUDI TT

The Audi TT, debuting as a concept in 1995 and production model in 1998, quickly became known for its Bauhaus-inspired design.

Its rounded shapes were initially polarizing but ultimately influential.

There was a recall in early models due to handling issues at high speeds, addressed with ESP and a rear spoiler.

The TT's name is derived from the Tourist Trophy race on the Isle of Man and NSU TT.

The Audi TT was succeeded by the Audi TTS.

A little-known fact: The original design team included J Mays, who later became Ford's chief designer. He championed the TT's minimalist aesthetic, pushing against internal resistance to create its iconic silhouette.
