2010 Geneva Motor Show: Audi A1 S-line

Audi A1 S-line

Audi presented the latest model to come out of the A1 lineup, the A1 S-Line, at the Geneva Motor Show. This version of Audi's smallest vehicle comes with a small but powerful engine and exterior changes as well. This engine, a 1.4-liter TFSI unit, develops 122PS and 200Nm of torque. It is mated to either a 6-speed manual gearbox or the optional 7-speed S tronic twin-clutch transmission. Due to its engine and transmissions, the A1 is able to hit 100 km/h in 9.1 seconds and reach a top speed of 124 mph (200 km/h).

The car boasts fuel consumption of about 55.4mpg (4.2l/100 km), while the car's CO2 emission levels are pegged at 119 g/km. When it comes to appearance, the S Line stands out from its rivals due to its new front spoiler, side skirts, a rear apron and new rims. However, Audi has yet to provide details about the changes in the interior.

In Geneva, the S Line was presented after the e-tron A1 made its debut. The S Line features an electric motor, a battery pack and single-rotor 254 cc Wankel engine. The A1 is virtually the same as the production version A1. But there were efforts to change it up a bit. The car was given an Aqua Mint paint with a pearl effect. Same as the other two e-tron models, the car rides on 18-inch wheels with a 20-spoke turbine design
