Audi A1 ready to take on Mini

摘要

Audi's new A1 supermini is poised to become the biggest-selling model in the firm's history following its UK launch this October. Priced from around ￡14,000, the Al will provide Ingolstadt with a direct rival to the popular Mini Cooper. The Al was first seen as the metroproject quattro concept at the Tokyo motor show in October2007; the production car features many of the same styling cues. From launch, two petrol and two diesel engines will be available, all of them featuring direct injection technology and turbocharging.
