Audi A1 Sportback (2012) first official pictures

Audi is expanding the A1 range with the long-anticipated five-door, the new A1 Sportback. The five-door A1 arrives in showrooms in spring 2012. You won't mistake it -although it's the same length as the three-door A1, at 3950mm, it's 6mm taller and wider to pack in more space for heads and doors.
