Safety
Innovative Braking System  
    Audi has implemented a number of ingenious features to help maximize braking effectiveness. In wet conditions, the brake disc wiping system gently pulses the brakes to help dissipate water buildup. Keeping the discs as dry as possible helps promote the most effective braking. Additionally, the brake assist system is able to detect an attempt at full braking and apply full stopping power when required. The advantage is that braking distance is significantly reduced.
   
ASF®
    The exclusive lightweight design of Audi Space Frame (ASF®) technology offers a number of significant advantages over the competition. By utilizing a combination of aluminum and steel, hybrid ASF technology significantly reduces vehicle weight, enhances body strength, and increases handling.
    Passive safety is one distinct benefit of ASF technology.
The TT and TTS feature a number of strategically placed crumple zones, designed to compress during a collision and absorb the deformation energy from the impact. Steel used in the rear allows for better weight distribution and handling, while the steel doors are augmented with aluminum impact beams for added protection. Additionally, weight savings results in better handling, acceleration and braking, enabling the car to be more responsive, stable and precise.
   
Six Standard Airbags?
    The six standard, second-generation airbags provide an additional measure of safety. They include front-impact airbags for the driver and passenger and are designed to help
protect the head. Seat-mounted, side-impact airbags for the front seat occupants are designed to help protect the thorax in a collision. And the side-curtain airbags offer front and rear occupants head protection in the event of a side collision or rollover.
  
 ESC
    The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) helps keep the vehicle traveling in its intended direction by utilizing ABS, the traction control of ASR and the electronic brake force
distribution of EBD. Specifically, when ESC detects loss of traction, it automatically cuts the throttle and applies the brakes to help "steer" the vehicle where you intend to go.
Braking is automatically applied to each wheel: at the outer front wheel to mitigate oversteer, or the inner rear wheel to mitigate understeer.
