Audi metroproject quattro concept
Audi metroproject quattro concept
Mindful that the media’s eyes would be drawn to the more unusual fare on show, few major Western manufacturers brought all-new models to the show. Audi were the exception, and while the metroproject is ostensibly a design study, it’s actually a near production-ready version of 2009’s A1 city car.
The concept uses a mild hybrid drive to keep emissions down, while the swooping roofline gives the car an easily identifiable silhouette. The metroproject also includes Audi’s new in-car remote control, a handheld device designed to control the car’s functions (try switching on the heater before you’ve even stepped out of the front door on a winter’s morning). Expect the idea to spread across the company’s entire range before long.
