Audi is presenting the A1 clubsport quattro showcar in Reifnitz, in the Austrian state of K\u00a4rnten, at the W\u00b6rthersee Tour 2011. The 30th edition of this major meeting for Audi, Seat, Skoda and VW fans takes place from June 1 – 4, 2011. This car gives the impression of having just emerged from the shop, freshly painted, on its way to the first rollout on the race track.<\/p>\n

The Audi A1 clubsport quattro is fitted with the legendary Audi gasoline engine – a 2.5 litre 5-cylinder with turbocharging and direct fuel injection engine. Compared with the version used in the Audi TT RS and RS 3 Sportback on which it is based, the output of the TFSI has been increased dramatically to 370 kW (503 hp) and 660 Nm (486.79 lb-ft) of torque. Maximum power is available between 2,500 and 5,300 rpm.<\/p>\n

The turbocharger, intercooler, admission tract and the exhaust line have been systematically tuned for high performance. As on the Audi A4 DTM, the tailpipe is located on the left flank, just in front of the rear wheel.<\/p>\n

Another area where the A1 clubsport quattro shines is its overall weight of just 1,390kg. The powerful engine catapults the car from 0 to 100 km\/h in 3.7 seconds. From 0 to 200 km\/h takes just 10.9 seconds, while the car goes from 80 to 120 km\/h in fourth gear in just 2.4 seconds.<\/p>\n

A six-speed manual transmission and quattro permanent all-wheel drive, both taken from the TT RS and enhanced, deliver the power to all four wheels. Top speed is limited at 250km\/h.<\/p>\n

The Audi A1 clubsport quattro showcar rolls on 255\/30 low-profile tyres mounted on 19-inch alloy wheels with a unique turbine design. Sitting behind the wheels are large, internally ventilated disc brakes. Up front, six-piston calipers grab perforated carbon fiber-ceramic discs. Large steel discs are mounted on the rear axle. The coilover suspension of the A1 clubsport quattro features adjustable compression and rebound damping.<\/p>\n
