So, which Audi A1 is best? This is a question we get asked regularly! Sit back, relax and let us guide you through everything you need to know about the Audi A1.

The Audi A1 launched in 2010 following a successful reveal at the Worthersee Tour in Austria. Initially available as a 3 door only, the Audi A1 was an instant success and firmly cemented its place within the Audi lineup.

A 5 door ‘Sportback’ model arrived 2 years later and joined the already impressive engine selection on offer. Take your pick from petrol or diesel, there was even a Clubsport Quattro to choose from. In late 2010 Audi ran a development programme to test battery technology, the car in question was an Audi A1 e-tron.

Why was it so successful? The Audi A1 simply combines all the elements of the A3 hatchback and presents them in a more compact form. From the premium badge to high quality materials and beautiful build quality, the Audi A1 was an instant overnight success.

And, as a used buy, the Audi A1 represents great value. Because the Audi A1 shares the same platform as the Volkswagen Polo, Skoda Fabia and SEAT Ibiza running costs are low too.
