What makes it iconic

Audi's smallest car — a premium city hatchback that brought four-ring quality to the supermini segment.

History

The A1 proved premium could work at any size. The S1, with its 231-hp turbocharged four and Quattro AWD in a car weighing just 1,315 kg, was a pocket rocket that punched well above its weight.
