"We are already a major player in the premium sports segment and i am confident that the introduction of the Audi TT will further help us consolidate our leadership position in the sports car segment in the country , " Audi India Head Michael Perschke commented in an interaction with the media. The TT will battle it out against the likes of Porsche Boxster , Mercedes Benz SLK and Nissan 370Z . This model is being bought for further establishing a premium brand image in the country and the German auto maker plans to sell about 50 units of the TT every year. However , it plans to see only 30 cars being sold in 2012. “As this segment is a very niche One , so we are not expecting a very large volume. The total size of this premium sports car market is 200-250 units per year. As we will start despatching the car in the middle of this year , we are hopeful of selling 25-35 units in 2012 , ” Mr Perschke said.

The TSFI powered new TT Coupe can touch 100 km per hour in just 5.6 seconds. The company targets to sell 50 units of TT per year. At the moment Audi offers premium sports car like R8 , R8 Spyder and RS 5 in India.
