The spy shots of the A1 hatch have been snagged on numerous occasions across the globe, since the 2013 and from those images, it is evident that the model is very close to production avatar.The model is most likely to be powered by a 2.0-litre 4-cylinder engine that is capable of developing 225PS of max power, which is sent to all four wheels via a 6-Speed manual transmission or a 6-Speed automatic tranny - depending upon the variant. Post it global debut, Audi India will get on to introducing the A1 hatchback in the country that will go head to head with the Mercedes Benz A-Class, B-Class and the BMW 1-Series.
