Audi A1 (8X)

Subcompact Hatchback

Product Gallery

Product Overview

Audi A1 (Typ 8X) is an affordable subcompact hatchback in production from 2010 to 2014, whereupon it received a facelift. It was available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 1.2 to 2.0 liters.

Essentially a 3-door, posh version of the Mk5 VW Polo, the Audi A1 is the cheapest model in Audi's lineup. Two years into the production of the Mk1 A1, Audi introduced a 5-door variant, A1 Sportback. There is little doubt that the 3-door model is superior in styling.

As usual for VAG vehicles of this vintage, the Mk1 A1 has some unreliable engines, which are unfortunately eclipsed in unreliability by those found in the facelifted model.

The official fuel economy rating is exceptionally rosy, though it may cast more doubts on the trustworthiness of the regulators and perhaps the owner's own sanity than it relates to reality. Utility-minded owners will have to keep in mind that the 270L (10cu-ft) cargo space may not be sufficient.
