NHTSA ODI complaints, all model years

Fatal crashes in the US

From 2020 to 2023, 22 TT vehicles were involved in crashes on US public roads in which someone died, and 14 people died inside them. These are counts, not crash rates: a model with more cars on the road shows up more often, and people killed outside the vehicle are not counted here.

Road collisions in Great Britain

From 2021 to 2025, 922 TT cars were involved in road collisions in Great Britain that injured someone and were reported to the police. 22 of those collisions were fatal and 190 caused serious injuries. As with any count, models with more cars on British roads appear more often.

MOT test results in Great Britain

115,571 TT cars took their annual MOT test in 2023; 76% passed first time, against 67% for all cars of the same ages. Older cars fail more often, so compare a year with the same year of other cars.

Why they fail

Share of all first tests that ended in a fail because of each part of the car (one test can fail on several).

New registrations in Europe

78,602 new Audi TT cars registered in the EU, Norway and Iceland between 2010 and 2022, from the European Environment Agency's CO₂ monitoring of every new car. In 2022 the largest markets were Germany (767), France (360), Italy (94).

Averages are weighted by registrations; CO₂ is the type-approval value (NEDC until the WLTP switch). European Environment Agency, CO₂ emissions from new passenger cars · re-use permitted with acknowledgement

Real-world fuel consumption

1,223 Audi TT cars registered in Europe between 2021 and 2024 report their fuel use through the on-board meter. Petrol versions average 8.4 l/100 km on the road, against 7.3 l/100 km in the official WLTP test — 15% more.

Litres per 100 km: total fuel used divided by total distance driven, from the car's own fuel consumption meter (OBFCM), collected in 2024 by the manufacturers, mostly remotely, and by national authorities. WLTP figures are the type-approval CO₂ values converted to litres. Hybrids, including mild hybrids, do not plug in; plug-in hybrid figures include the distance driven on electricity.

What it costs in fuel

On real-world figures the Audi TT uses 8.4 litres per 100 km, so 15,000 km a year takes about 1,260 litres: €2,739 at this week's average price in Germany, its largest market in Europe.
