Best looking car in the segment. I love how low / planted the car is. It really feels like a capable car for cornering too with that profile. Polo looks awful imo.
TN W it quite clearly does from the video. Which mode do you have? It may be that it’s only the 40 tsfi vehicle that has it. If you have the 1.0 or 1.4 litre I doubt it will have launch control. To activate, dsc off, gearbox sport and in dynamic. Brake and accelerator
@@Thomas-qj6gi it does, put the car in dynamic with the gearbox in sport with the engine mode in dynamic an you press the dsc off from there break and accelarator.
Brilliant video. I expected more ps tho. Good 0 to 100kph time. Kia and hyundai doing 200 ps from a 1.6 tgdi. But this is half a second faster,lighter,more torque
Suzuki Swift Sport with 1.4T engine (140 PS) and classic (slow) automatic transmission - 7.01 Audi A1 with 2.0T (200 PS), fast dual clutch transmission and locking diff - 6.42 Come on...
@@rafaelcalha Good one 😁 Well, I watch other videos and comment to, so it is nice to meet here 🙂 A1 has 90 Nm more torque. But I forgot that Suzuki is "lying" about Swift Sport, it actually has 160 HP and 260 Nm (before 2020), so only 60 Nm less than A1 2.0T
First off all we can clearly see quite a lot of wheelspin, secound off all this A1 as a premium brand weight almost 400kg more than the Swift Sport. And still is quicker.
@@TheEryk03 PDrive is doing many attempts with different methods to get the best result. They are not stupid to measure acceleration with a lot of wheelspin. What you see here is demo footage. Or maybe it was the best what they could get from this car although front lsd on board. Weight difference is 355 kg, quite a lot. But again - A1 has much much bigger engine and very fast dual clutch transmission. I would expect much more from a premium brand, not only being slightly faster than budget Suzuki.
@@4x4.tests.on.rollers half a sec is not slightly. This engine gives to much torque to send it only for front wheels. Maybe tires also were not too good. And i dont get why you are crying so much if the A1 is still quicker. Premium brands are alweys full of expensive equipment that add weight not performance.
TheEryk You’re not quite right. This Audi is technically identical to the VW Polo GTI mk6. Its the same car besides the look. The Lamburgini is unique in its Way.
@@toregullikhanem3077 that is bullsh!t. The A1 is as unique as Urus. You never saw and drive any A1 or even Polo is you cant see any differents between those cars
The engine, and the base - the chassi is from audy and some stuff from the interenior is form VW too - but you have more stuff in the audi like the big touch screen (its from the A6 and A8). I bought the Audi and Im very happy with this car. =)
@@jessek9985 Maxed Audi A1 is about 54k. Golf R 64k optioned, 54k~ on road if spartan. A well specced (but not maxed) GTi is about 56k. To clarify all pricing I mention is on-road cost before negotiations.
If you want a small fun car save yourself 20k and get a fiesta st. You’re right about if you going to spend this much on a car may as well spend a bit extra for the golf r
Coenraad Lourens, I just saw a video which a Golf R with 10k miles had carbon build up on the intake valves. It’s a costly procedure to fix and isn’t covered by warranty.
Exciting stuff starts at 2:16
Thanks mate 👍😉
Oh, this upside-down exhaust camera was sooo sweet! :)
3:05 did you fart out of excitement? @PDriveTV
Yes
🤣🤣🤣🤣
3:04 The cameraman farts on camera, LOL 😂
Make it S, make it Quattro

Formula 1 type feel
Does the A1 has launch control or am i dreaming? And a nice exhaust sound too! Not to much but it crackles a bit I think?
I confirm that the 40 TFSI has a launch control 🔥
@@authenticsupercars7212 How can i use the launch controll???
@@authenticsupercars7212 No it does not at all as I am owning one. If you say there is then I am curious to see it from your personal video.

The new Audi a1 looks pretty nice
Much much better than previous one
Unlike Merc that every new generation is uglier than the previous one, Audi does great
Lovely, compact, sporty, practical. Audi A1 Sportback just awesome. NFS MW vehicle.
Brilliant video. I expected more ps tho. Good 0 to 100kph time. Kia and hyundai doing 200 ps from a 1.6 tgdi. But this is half a second faster,lighter,more torque
Matches my 1.6 Astra in acceleration
@@vkgiotis your 1.6 astra does 0 to 100 kph in 6.5 secs? 😂👍
@@kodfish1985 have you checked out the PDrive vid on the 1.6 T Astra? Same performance as the Audi without the useless luxury.
@@vkgiotis nope
@@kodfish1985 You may be surpirsed if you see the vid. I'd classify the Astra K 1.6 T (2016 onwards) as a "sleeper".
Is there a special exhaust ? It seems to do a beautiful little sound, more than previous 2.0 TFSi gen...
Factory spec vehicle from Audi Australia media fleet.

It's so funny that I watch all your vids and now I see your comment here too ahahah
anyways, you're right, but it's probably because of the torque

C’est en mode dynamique que la sonorité est évaluée ?
Thats a Polo GTI with a Audi Body.
That's bc Audi's owned by VAG. They're a shareholder.
You are right same underpinnings with a different frock on put 4 rings on it VW charge rich idiots a premium of 15k. Same applies to A3 over the golf
You morons Lamborghini Urus also will call Volkswagen with Lamborghini body??... Damn you stupid garbage.

This is what it goes like......
I like that blue. Good performance too.
Waitinf for Audi A1 Coupê and Audi A1 Sedan 👍
moves well for 200ps. would be cool to see a 45 tfsi.
Chiptune it stage 1 and you will get 245hp and 430nm of torque!!
👍 super vidéo 👍👏❤️
People say this is just Polo, so what’s exactly about it is from Polo? The chassis? How about the engine and so on?

I love it!!!!!!
it looks nice, but 50k and you get a manual parkbrake, cloth seats and no panoramic roof.. that's not right
Thanks!
Priced too high for the top spec. For 52k would you rather this or a Golf R? That's legitimately the price category this car competes in...
You could buy a Supra mk5..
Golf R is another 8-10k before options I believe.. Golf GTI Is at the 50k mark.

@@mills3375 The new Fiesta ST and Focus ST are both awesome cars for the money, 100% agree that they're a good choice too.
I used to love our Australian cars being compared to the European cars. That's all history now. Its just another import.
why dont put this motor for the new audi a3.... i meam the a1 is ridiculous
I heard this version existed
Test the A4 B9 2.0 190Hp!!
3:37. 😍😍
actually not too bad for an A1
New CLS 450 4matic please.
fast as a cooper s
Lol no
looks like a kia rio gt
Very much so
Double price
No option to open the exhaust pipes to make it louder?
I own one and you can set engine noise to louder when changing drive mode
it looks like a Polo
Save yourself a good 10-15K and get the Polo GTI instead imo.
Don’t like the interior of the Polo, prefer Audi for that.
Polo GTI, same car different clothes and waaaaay cheaper too.
Does anyone know if all the 40 TFSI sound like this in stock form?
My A1 40 TFSI sounds like this :D
Thanks I have one now!
@@Biernot247 where are you from ?

You sure 0-100 in 5.47s? 😳
Times are at the end.
I saw them. Just saying that is an incredibly fast time for a FWD car with 147kw. You sure it wasn’t downhill?
@@wleng 0-100 is 6.42, not 5.47. Times are right at the end.
PDriveTV ah sorry I misunderstood!
@@PDriveTV brake hold ? why is it faster with brake hold?
Serie 1 sound is better
S1
Really nice! But Ford Fiesta ST is still the King of small hot hatchback's !
Ford's build quality is atrocious compared to Audi's.

Looks so bad 😁
Bad in a very good way.
