Some cars get a lot of attention at the time of their launch while some are launched without informing much of the media. This is quite normal and is expected at times by manufacturers who do not desire to create hype for some of their products. Something similar has happened today and this time it is Audi.
Audi, the German luxury car manufacturer, has silently launched the 2012 model of the much popular Audi TT sports car in India. The car’s launch was announced today in Mumbai and the TT will be available at all the Audi dealerships across India in June 2012.

The design icon already sports a fascinating and dynamic appearance and has now been revised to be even more expressive.
