High-torque and efficientThe TFSI® engines of the Audi A1
The Audi A1 features TFSI® technology. What makes it so special is that it combines the advantages of FSI® – efficiency and dynamics – with turbocharging that improves the power characteristics even more.
The sporty 1.4 TFSI engine produces 90 kW and has been designed with a high top speed and good fuel consumption values in mind. It powers the Audi A1 up to 203 km/h, with a torque of 200 Nm at 1,500 rpm. Its water-cooled intercooler is integrated into the intake manifold; this reduces the volume of the charge-air system and makes it more dynamic. Audi is one of the first manufacturers to combine the S tronicS tronicFaster gearshifts, sportier driving: the S tronic combines the sporty characteristics of a manual gearbox with the advantages of an automatic.S tronic with the start-stop system. Both systems are synchronised with each other; the A1 thus uses less fuel.
The top-of-the-range model, the Audi A1 TFSI Sport with 136 kW, sprints from a standstill to 100 km/h in 6.9 seconds and keeps accelerating up to 227 km/h. The responsiveness of the 136 kW and the pulling power of 250 Nm torque can be attributed to the combination of supercharger and turbocharger. The top A1 model also combines efficiency and dynamics – the 1.4 TFSI engine consumes an average of only 5.9 litres of fuel per 100 km and emits just 139 grams of CO2 per km.
Fuel consumption and emissions data:
Fuel consumption, combined: 5.3 - 5.9 l/100km
