2019 Audi A1 review

The light – or if you prefer, city – car segment remains an important hunting ground for carmakers, despite new-car buyers flocking to SUVs and dual-cab utes for their automotive needs. Still, last year, the light-car segment harnessed just over 70,000 new-car sales in Australia, representing 7.2 per cent of the market. Of those, just over 1000 were Audi’s first-generation A1 hatch, the brand’s cute take on the city car segment.
