The 100,000th A1 was produced in June 2011. The company claims that Audi A1 would be much sportier and luxurious in the class. Initially, Audi is reported to launch the compact car in four variants viz 1.2L TFSI, 1.4L TFSI, 2.0 TDI and 1.6L TDI engine. The first two are petrol and last two are diesel engine. All the power-plants are smaller, turbocharged and has direct fuel injection system. The base petrol engine, 1.2 L TFSI is capable enough to produce 63 Kw of peak power while generates top torque of 160 Nm at 1500-3,500 rpm. The higher end petrol variant of the Audi A1 is powered by a 1.4L TFSI, four cylinder engine which easily pumps out 90 kW of maximum power and 200 Nm of peak torque at 1,500-4,000 rpm. The variant is to be loaded with standard six-speed manual transmission.

The variant is loaded with a five-speed manual transmission. There is a bit confusion for the second diesel engine. Some sources report that it will be a 2.0L TDI engine or others say that it will be another 1.6L TDI engine which is to produce more power. The exterior of Audi A1 is very much aggressive and borrowed many things from its earlier concept models. The nose of the car is flat and houses broad grille compartment. It dominates the front design with larger fog lamps. Curves and slopes are left bold and beautiful. Its outside rear view mirrors are in body colour.

It round shape rear side is also compact and having distinctive taillights. The rear windshield comes in the proportion of the front hence rear side view will be clear for the driver. Twin exhaust pipes located at the same side will woo the viewers behind the car. In the same way, the interior of the Audi A1 is supposed to be the finest in terms of the design. The cabin is expected to be spacious and luxurious. It is likely to be blessed with air-conditioner, latest audio system and ESP stability system.
