  Every detail of the sporty four-cylinder engine has been optimised for high performance and low fuel consumption.

Audi has topped off its A1 model series with the A1 quattro.

It's limited to 333 units in left hand drive only. Power to all four wheels comes from a 2.0-litre, turbocharged engine with 188 kW/350Nm. It pushes the diminutive Audi from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.7 seconds. 

The A1 quattro's direct injection engine features variable intake timing and two balance shafts. Every detail of the sporty four-cylinder engine has been optimised for high performance and low fuel consumption.

Common rail injection, a turbocharger with intercooler and a regulated oil pump are just a few examples. The Audi A1 quattro is expected to consume on average less than 8.5 litres per 100km. Yet it performs like a top-notch sports car. 

Transmission is a multi plate six-speed "auto" located at the rear axle for chassis balance. The Audi A1 quattro rolls on 8.0 x 18-inch cast alloy wheels. 

Sporty black dominates the interior of the Audi A1 quattro. The seats and the armrests on the doors are covered in Silk Nappa leather with contrasting red seams.

The S sport seats up front have pronounced bolsters, integrated head restraints and a quattro badge on the backrest covers. The seats feature multi-way adjustment.

The lower section of the center console shines in high-gloss black; the footrest and the pedal caps are made of brushed stainless steel. The instrument cluster has a number of eye-catching features, including white needles, a red tachometer, the quattro logo and the colour display for the driver information system.

The multifunction flat-bottom sport steering wheel is wrapped in leather with contrasting red stitching and sports the car's serial number.

The shift lever knob is made of aluminum. Many control elements have an aluminum-look finish. The A1 quattro is only produced in left-hand drive, and as such, it cannot be brought to the Australian market.
