For a supermini, the new generation Audi A1 is
surprisingly expensive, as revealed by the online configurator for the German
market, available here, yet it’s also a bit sparse in base grade.
The price of the 2019 A1 starts at € 21,150 (US$ 24,487)
in Germany. The entry-level model will play your favorite tunes, though you can
only see the readings and settings on the standard digital instrument cluster
and control it only via the multi functional steering wheel buttons.
The most affordable Audi A1 comes with air
conditioning, electric windows and central locking, but no alloy rims, it has
steel wheels – luckily with hub caps. Customers will have to pay almost
€ 1,000 (US$ 1,158) for the LED headlights if they don’t favor the looks of the car
without them, and for a good reason, as the base units make the A1 look really
cheap.
In addition to the base model, Audi is offering the
new A1 in three trim levels called Advanced, S Line and Edition 1. The A1
Advanced starts at € 22,900 (US$ 26,513), the S Line is available from € 24,000
(US$ 27,787), whereas the Edition 1 comes at a hefty € 27,940 (US$ 32,348).
