March 17, 2015 – An exclusive driving experience event for Audi customers proved to be a huge success, with more than 40 drivers assembling to test drive the new Audi TT and the Audi S3 at the Dubai Autodrome this weekend.
Organised by Al Nabooda Automobiles, a host of valued Audi customers were invited to get behind the wheel of the eagerly awaited all-new Audi TT, which is making its debut in Dubai and the Northern Emirates, alongside the popular Audi S3.
The designers of the new TT have reinterpreted the typical and award winning lines of the original TT from 1998, and enriched it by adding an array of dynamic elements to enhance the sporty character of the car. New electronic innovations include the Audi virtual cockpit, which replaces the analog instruments and the MM monitor in the new TT. It now comprises a fully digital instrument cluster with versatile graphics and a highly detailed display.
Commenting on the car, Ali Al Nabooda, General Manager, Audi, Al Nabooda Automobiles said “The Audi TT is synonymous with being a genuine design icon and top performance machine and this new generation enables Audi to bring the technology even more to life for drivers – just as they would expect from a real sports car”
For tackling curves on the road, the S3 is a willing partner, utilizing Audi’s legendary quattro all-wheel drive system which helps to provide a better grip in and out of corners. With a turbo-charged 286-hp TFSI engine and an S tronic dual clutch transmission, the S3 shifts the driver’s perception of how fast a sports sedan can change gears, giving them a power trip they can seriously enjoy.
“Our customers had a great day at the Autodrome and it was rewarding to see them enjoying the power and strength of these fantastic new cars,” said Ali Al Nabooda, General Manager, Audi, Al Nabooda Automobiles.
“Driving on a race track offers an entirely different experience to that of a public road because you can really enjoy the incredible capabilities of the cars and give yourself a truly thrilling ride. We are constantly striving to offer our customers unique experiences and memories related to owning and driving an Audi, and feedback from the weekend suggests that this was a great way to say thank you.”
