Two rollover bars, which form an integral
part of the body structure, ensure the Roadster’s safety and rigidity.
Precisely calculated reinforcements in the sill areas and sturdy
transitions at the joints between the A and B-posts and the floor
assembly give the TT Roadster its excellent torsional rigidity.
The soft top with its large heated glass rear window can be opened and
folded down in a single action. An electro-hydraulic soft top (standard
on the TT Roadster 3.2 quattro) and an electrically retractable wind
deflector made of safety glass are also available. The wind deflector’s
rounded edge follows the outline of the two rollover bars and prevents
unwelcome turbulence.
Active safety plays a central role in the TT Roadster. Its standard
equipment comprises the Electronic Stabilization Program ESP including
Electronic Differential Lock EDL, Electronic Brake-force Distribution
EBD and Anti-Slip Regulation ASR.
Large disc brakes and ABS ensure outstanding deceleration figures.
Ventilated brake discs are fitted at the front; the TT 3.2 quattro and
165 kW (225 bhp) TT Roadster 1.8 T quattro have them at the rear too.
