THE MOTORCALIBER REVIEW
MotorCaliber editorial ◆ Reviewed against NHTSA data ◆ 2026-10-01

The 2019 Audi TT RS is a high-performance compact sports coupe aimed squarely at driving enthusiasts who want German engineering intensity in a relatively compact package. Positioned at the top of the TT lineup, it competes in the premium performance coupe segment against similarly focused rivals. Its target buyer prioritizes track-capable dynamics and brand prestige alongside everyday usability.

The 2019 Audi TT RS has no federal crash-test ratings. NHTSA did not evaluate this model year, leaving a gap in government-backed safety data. This is not uncommon for low-volume performance vehicles, which are often excluded from federal testing programs. Consequently, consumers lack official star ratings or a Safety Index score for this vehicle. Despite the absence of crash-test results, the 2019 TT RS shows a clear record in other federal safety metrics. There are zero recalls issued for this model year. The owner complaint database also shows zero reported incidents, with no crashes, fires, injuries, or deaths attributed to the 2019 TT RS. The limited sales volume of the TT RS likely contributes to these low complaint figures. Audi includes active safety technology as standard equipment on the TT RS, though these systems are not independently rated here. The 2019 TT RS exhibits no federal safety blemishes in its recall or complaint history, but without crash-test data, buyers proceed without government validation of its crashworthiness.

WHAT REVIEWERS SAYReviewers generally praise the 2019 TT RS for its sharp, engaging driving dynamics and the exceptional responsiveness of its turbocharged five-cylinder engine. The interior is widely described as well-crafted and refined, with high-quality materials throughout the compact cabin. Some reviewers note the limited rear visibility and snug interior dimensions as practical trade-offs for the model's focused, driver-centric character.

WHAT TO KNOW
  • NHTSA did not crash-test the 2019 Audi TT RS, so there are no federal star ratings available - shoppers cannot rely on government crash-test data to benchmark this model's structural safety performance.
  • The 2019 TT RS carries zero recalls for the model year covered, meaning no federal safety defect campaigns have been issued against this vehicle.
  • Owner complaints in the NHTSA database stand at zero for the 2019 model year, with no reported crashes, fires, injuries, or fatalities on record - though the low sales volume of this niche performance coupe naturally limits the complaint pool.
  • Because this is a low-volume, high-performance variant, future recall or complaint data may emerge over time as the fleet ages; shoppers should recheck the NHTSA database periodically for any newly filed activity.
