“Even the series standard version of the car is a lot of fun in particular on winding roads – and it is precisely for this reason that we have focused on providing extra power. The performance improvement increases the car’s agility and fits its driving characteristics perfectly,” Hans-Jurgen Abt explains. “It doesn’t just need to have good throttle response, but the handling has to be right too. You should always look forward to your next trip with the A1.″
We are mightily impressed with what ABT managed to pull out of the who A1 engine range, as the range-toping 1.4 TFSI was boosted to 210 hp, some 25 more that stock, while the 122 hp version of the same engine now puts out 160 hp. The smaller 1.2 TFSI now 115 hp, an impressive figure for an engine this size. In the diesel department, the 1.6 TDI oil-burning lump now makes 20 more hp than stock for a grand total of 125 hp.
