A few days ago, Audi announced an addition to its alpha-numerical line-up of the “A” family of sleek cars. This new prototype is known as the Audi A2 Concept, as we were told. According the automaker, the new concept vehicle is set to debut at the next Frankfurt Motor Show in a few weeks time. Considering the rapid rate with which the company is churning out the models of this line of cars, we reckon it won’t be long before we get to A10 that will complete the cycle. But we’re not yet there – all we have at the moment is the newest member of the family, which is the 2011 Audi A2 Concept.
Designed as a pure electric concept car, this reincarnated A2 dumps its previous small MPV body in favor of a five-door hatchback, which in large part is smaller than the notable Audi A1. We’re yet to get full details about specific configurations of the prototype. Audi is keeping quiet about the specs, but said they will be made available to the general public at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. But the exclusive information Audi Concept has about the new vehicle indicates that the body isn’t entirely made of aluminum, which largely characterized the original model.
Other information we gathered from an Audi insider who is familiar with the design indicates that the 2011 Audi A2 Concept will feature a flat interior floorboard, a rear console that stretches between its two rear seats, a center console fixed to the driver’s seat and four individual seats. The vehicle will be propelled by what Audi said is a powerful electric drive mechanism for long range and agile performance.
For the time-being, we have to take Audi’s word regarding the new concept car, since we haven’t seen it live and test-driven it. But then, the Frankfurt show is around the corner, and so, we’ll not be waiting for a long time.
The general outlook of the 2011 Audi A2 Concept is so much intriguing, because it exudes luxury and sophistication. Surely this is a car designed to grab a lot of attention!
Since the introduction of the concept car was announced a few days ago, it has been creating a lot of buzz among auto enthusiasts and prospective purchasers. However, some critics complain they can’t fully appreciate the beauty of the vehicle, owing to the fact that the only thing Audi presented is a few sketches. That notwithstanding, no one argues that the sportiness of the car is a big plus for an electric vehicle.
The initial model of the “A” family line of cars was exquisitely designed, and we reckon this new model will include even more features and add-ons. However, there is a general curiosity on why Audi announced the car has the capability to generate a high-speed performance. Many questions remain unanswered at the moment. Things like: how many kilometers can the car travel before its power runs down? How is the electric motor system configured? Well, all those questions and many more will be answered at the upcoming automobile show in Germany in a couple of weeks.
