Audi A1 e-tron: Here it is!

Audi A1 e-tron
As announced earlier Audi is showing another e-tron concept at the Geneva Motor Show, this time it's the Audi A1 e-tron concept. Our take: the future is bright for Audi with all these hot models in the pipe.
Audi is calling the A1 E-tron design study a "Mega City Vehicle," a bit of a deviation from the sports cars in the E-tron family. The A1 E-tron has an output of 102 horsepower and a range of more than 31 miles in city traffic, according to the automaker.

"When the battery's energy supply is exhausted, it is recharged by an exceptionally compact 'range extender' consisting of a single-rotor Wankel engine and an electrical generator with a charge rating of up to 15 kw," said Audi in a statement.

The device gives the A1 E-tron an additional range of 124 miles.
