New Audi A1 / A2 Rendering

It�s no secret that Audi is planning to substitute the unsuccessful A2 hatch with a premium supermini aimed straight at BMW�s MINI but also, at Alfa�s upcoming Junior hatch. Rumors have it the A1 or A2, will go on sale on both sides of the Atlantic sometime in 2009. Till then we�ll have to be contempt with renderings like this one from Andrea Rosati of Infomotori. Obviously inspired from the Shooting Brake concept, Rosati penned a dynamic hatch though we'll have to disagree with the front end which looks likes it suffers from �gigantism�.

Unlike the current all-aluminium A2, the new A1 / A2 will have a steel body and it�ll share many components with the VW Group�s B segment cars (VW Polo, Seat Ibiza & Skoda Fabia). Expect 1.4 TSI and 1.8 TSFI petrol engines as well as a full range of TDI diesel motors. Via: Autoblog.nl & Infomotori
