High-torque and efficientThe TFSI® engines of the Audi A1

TFSI® technology is employed in the new Audi A1. Its unique feature is that it combines the advantages of FSI® – efficiency and dynamism – with a turbocharger, which ensures even better power delivery.

The newly developed 1.2 TFSI engine with 63 kW of power has a die-cast aluminium engine block with innovative, cast iron liners and a maintenance-free toothed chain drive. The lightweight pistons are low-friction while the oil and cooling water circuit, with dual-circuit cooling, ensure a high level of efficiency. You will soon notice this from the pleasantly low consumption, averaging just 5.1 l/100 km, and the maximum torque of 160 Nm, which is available from an engine speed of just 1,500 rpm.

The sporty 1.4 TFSI engine with the optional 7-speed S tronic generates 90 kW and is clearly designed for top performance combined with economical fuel consumption. It powers the Audi A1 to 203 km/h with a torque of 200 Nm, likewise available from 1,500 rpm. Its watercooled charge air cooler is integrated in the inlet manifold; this reduces the volume of the charge air system and delivers increased dynamism. For even more dynamic performance, the 1.4 TFSI (136 kW) features a two-stage turbocharging system. It accelerates the Audi A1 to 227 km/h with a torque of 250 Nm from 2,000 rpm.

Fuel consumption and emissions data:
