According to Autocar, the forthcoming Audi A2 will be prepared as an all-electric vehicle when it hits the streets in the next few years. The second incarnation of the Audi A2 will be starkly different from its predecessor, which bombed in sales because of the expensive spaceframe construction that it came with. This time around, Audi is being more prudent and will instead use a steel monocoque for the A2, similar to what is being used for the A1, the company’s new premium hatchback. Likewise, the report that the A2 will solely be an electric car is indicative of what Audi chairman Rupert Stadler mentioned as one of the company’s main priorities, that being the company’s stance in pushing for electric vehicles. With the new all-electric A2 already in the oven, it wouldn’t surprise us the least bit if the car is pegged as the competitor for the BMW Megacity, which is scheduled to hit dealerships in 2013. .
11 comments: Audi A2 I can’t believe that this one is producing by Audi! I mean it is very unlike their cars. This A2 is looking so simple and not impressive as well, and I really don’t like the fact that it is an electric car.
This car is so interesting. I want to see it now. Hehehe. Was this car already on the market? I think this is really a great car. I bet they will sell lots of units like this.
StickManCreator really? Where did you saw the real picture of this new A2? I’m confused with what you say that their new one is a lot better than this.
i have heard that they are going to use the A1 e-tron hatchback. Primarily originated from the A1..it seems that electric car versus diesel versus gasoline...
I am not sure if any of you know this, but that isn’t a picture of the new A2. The new one looks a lot better.
