There is no word if this includes its Ferrari F1 derived Cambiocorsa paddle shift transmission, but it shouldn't matter much to Audi considering it already offers a version of their own in the updated TT.

The Ferrari connection initially poses an interesting question. Being that Audi is part of VW AG, that also owned Ferrari's chief competitor Lamborghini as well as supercar manufacturer Bugatti, it at first seems that sharing technologies could have dire consequences for the much smaller Italian firm. Not so according to the new deal, which allows component sharing between Audi and Maserati only.
