After the Audi Q8, the German automaker has now begun teasing the release of the 2019 A1, which could debut in Barcelona, Spain later this year. There has only been one generation of the supermini, which was first revealed back in 2010 and later facelifted for 2015.
The teaser mainly focuses on the car’s interior, specifically the touchscreen MMI display, which is now integrated into the dashboard rather than being a free standing unit like on the current generation. Those circular air-con vents have also been replaced with more angular units that will likely frame the instrument binnacle.
We also see the controls for the automatic climate control system as well as the heated seats. Beyond that, there’s not a lot to be taken from this teaser until the next one comes along. Expect the Audi virtual cockpit to be an available piece of equipment as well.
The new A1 is expected to ride on the Volkswagen Group’s MQB platform (also used for the Seat Ibiza and Volkswagen Polo), and will be powered by a range of engines. These include a new 1.0 litre, three-cylinder base engine, along with new 1.5 litre turbocharged engines with up to 150 PS. Also a likelihood is a high-performance S1 variant, which will likely get the 200 PS 2.0 TSI engine from the Polo GTI.
