Audi is expanding its A1 lineup with the addition of the five-door A1 Sportback, which is set for launch in early 2012. A close resemblance of the three-door models in the A1 product range is obvious in the design, the dimensions and the structure of the lightweight body of the new model. The up-and-coming A1 is 3.95 meters (12.96 ft) long. Being several millimeters taller, it offers more space in the back seats.
This Audi model has four seats, but an additional one is available upon request without extra charges. One can choose either three TDI diesel or three TFSI gasoline engines delivering between 63 kW (86 hp) and 136 kW (185 hp). Audi matches some engines with the lightning-fast, seven-speed S tronic transmission.
This vehicle model also boasts of various high-end solutions in terms of infotainment and control such as Audi connect. Internet connectivity is also possible by combining the high-end media center MMI navigation plus with the Bluetooth online car phone. The vehicle also boasts of a light and youthful interior, which can be personalized with fresh colors and many attractive design details. The base price for this model is 16,950 euros.
