The 2012 TTA – Racing Elite League season was the only season of the new Racing Elite League run by the Touring Car Team Association.

Following the season, the two series announced their reunification, under the STCC name but with the TTA technical regulations. Fredrik Ekblom won the championship, driving for Volvo Polestar Racing.
