The model

Read full review

The Audi A1 is a fine car – it's great to drive, comfortable to sit in and available with lots of big car options. However, if you can live without a posh badge, the Peugeot 208 and VW Polo offer slightly more for less money. Our recommend version of the A1 is the 30 TFSI with entry-level Sport trim.

The trim

See full equipment

Sport trim is our recommendation. It includes 16in alloy wheels, cruise control and rear parking sensors. You also get personalisation options, including a contrasting colour roof.

The engine

See full engine specs

The engine range kicks off with the 25 TFSI, which is a 94bhp 1.0-litre petrol engine. We're yet to try it in the A1 yet, but the more powerful 30 TFSI is our pick of the range so far.
