Look out Mini, the Audi A1 “Metroproject” Quattro concept is confirmed and ready to be unveiled at the 2007 Tokyo motor show. At 3.91m long and 1.75m wide with a wheelbase of 2.46m, this is the smallest Quattro ever to hit the streets. In this case I’m not sure that size really matters because the Metroproject’s looks definitely make up for it’s measurements with brushed aluminum exterior window frame arches, virtually seamless pillars, massive grille shield and angry LED’s. This little fella is powered by a 1.4L TFSI engine featuring a S-tronic dual-clutch gearbox. If you need a little extra punch, there is an extra rear mounted
41hp electric motor that will engage as necessary to assist and adapt to your driving style. For city cruising you can switch to “pure electric mode” and save a little gas.
The “retro modern” aluminum and leather trimmed interior not only looks good but is totally “digital lifestyle” friendly. Just take a look at the integrated multimedia console featuring an album art coverflow interface that even puts the iPhone to shame. This is not confirmed, but from the looks of this interior console shot you might even be able plug your iPod, iPhone or any other Mp3 player right into the dash and control it all from your Audi’s head unit.

That is one sick Audi. Looks even better that the upcoming BMW 135-is.

As an owner of a MK5 GTI, I want an Audi next. What with killer fuel bills, I’m willing to trade (only) a little performance in order to get the package this car offers… I’m keeping an eye on it! Might be my next!
