According to the designers the new Audi A2 will be released as an A2 but will be a totally different package. The new generation A2 is not set for release any time soon.

Aside from coming up with a new A2, the car manufacturer also wants to have an electric A2. This makes the design process a bit longer to make sure that the engineering for the small hatchback vehicle will work perfectly well.

The new Audi A2 will not take up the DNA of the Volkswagen Up platform which is due for launch by 2010. The A2 will be utilizing a new range platform the blends well in between the A1 super mini and the A3. The A2 is expected to have a different body style which will be bigger than the VW Up or as big as the A1.

The company is looking into the development of a premium brand of electric cars. It is expected to be different from what the VW has and Audi is looking into building something which can meet head on the iQ of the Japanese automaker Toyota.

The revival of the A2 comes in response to a lack of interest of the market for Audi’s city car released last year of the A2. With the mini’s going well in the market right now, the A2 move is a logical step for Audi.

The Audi A4 Allroad Quattro converts mechanical power to electricity whenever it decelerates. This translates to a reduced load on the alternator.

On top of the power regeneration system, all three Audi engines are also Euro 5 compliant. The 2- and 3- liter diesel TDI engines come with a six-speed manual transmission. Meanwhile, the 2.0-liter TFSI engine, on the other hand, comes with a seven-speed S-tronic transmission.

All Audi A4 Allroad Quattro versions are designed as permanent all-wheel drives. It houses a purely mechanical center differential which puts more power on the rear wheels, distributing 40:60 ratio of power with the front axle.

The three engines consume competitively low amounts of fuel. The 2-liter TDI diesel engine consumes only 6.4 liters per 100 km, while the 3-liter V6 TDI diesel engine consumes 7.1 liters for every 100 km. If you take in account some extra fuel efficiency tips, I’m sure you might even do a little better.

The gasoline engine consumes a higher amount of fuel, but it’s still competitive for its make. The 2-liter TFSI engine runs on 8.1 liters of gasoline for every 100 km.

The models boast of high straight-line stability, impressive riding comfort, and excellent driving dynamics. These benefits are fruits of several modifications made in the line up: the car’s front axle was reposition to be nearer the axle, and the differential was placed directly in front of the clutch and behind the engine. These improvements made way for better overall weight distribution.
