The A1 citycarver also shares the taut exterior design with the broad track and short overhangs with its sister model. The powerful, slightly slanting C-pillar appears to accelerate the car even at a standstill and all the lines on the sides rise in a wedge shape toward the rear. The shoulder line creates strong contours above the wheels and continues at a slightly lower level on the doors, visually drawing down the center of gravity. At the front and the strongly modeled rear, the arrow-shaped layout of the light graphics (with the optional LED headlights) emphasizes the width of the body. Large air inlets and outlets underline the vehicle’s sporty character.
The large, octagonal Singleframe is reminiscent of the Audi Q models. It gets by without a frame, and its intensely sculpted honeycomb is painted in matt black. There are two distinctive slots above the grille—a small nod to the Sport quattro, a true Audi icon. The underbody protection at the front and the diffuser insert at the rear are painted with glossy stainless steel paint, the wheel arches and distinctive side sills sport attachments in Manhattan gray or Mythos black. A large S line roof edge spoiler extends the roof line, and the rear bumpers take up the powerful look of the front apron.
