Audi TTS Competition celebrates 500k TTs sold

That’s meant a total of 500,000 TTs have been solid since the TT first hit showrooms back in 1998, so Audi are celebrating with a new limited edition model – the Audi TTS Competition. The TTS Competition will be limited to just 500 units and will come in a choice of either Imola Yellow and Nimbus Grey, as a coupe or a roadster.

And it’s always possible that they have in mind a full electric Cayenne. After all, even though the Cayenne is a far from lightweight beast it does have enough room to store a decent bank of batteries.
