Audi Finance A1 Inclusive Package Strikes Second Blow for Premium Small Car Affordability

ZETLAND, AUSTRALIA – December 3, 2010: Audi Australia, having stunned the premium market with the breakthrough price for the A1 1.4TFSI Attraction 5 speed manual of just $29,900 (MLP), has now launched an equally remarkable finance package which is sure to attract an ever increasing number of Australians to the pleasures of premium small car motoring.

The Audi Finance A1 Inclusive Package, much like the car itself, seeks to condense all the value of Audi ownership into a comprehensive package that is hard to resist.

With scheduled service covered for the term of either a 36 or 48 month contract, this unique finance package also includes comprehensive insurance for the first year as well as tyre and rim insurance for the term of the contract, all locked in at a highly competitive interest rate of only 9 per cent.

In fact a 36 month contract on a A1 1.4 TFSI Attraction 6-speed manual will see the proud new owner drive away from only $169 per week.

This unique offer has been crafted to afford more Australians the opportunity to experience the satisfaction of Audi premium motoring, with the extra advantage of enjoying a comprehensive range of additional benefits.

Apart from bringing premium motoring to a price level not seen in Australia for the best part of a decade, the Audi A1 brings the marque’s progressive design and uncompromising quality to a segment which attracts those who seek a small car yet refuse to surrender a focus on quality.

Audi Australia Managing Director, Uwe Hagen sees the innovative Audi Finance A1 Inclusive package as a major initiative in delivering premium small car motoring.

“With this comprehensive offer we will provide an authentic Audi premium experience to an even wider audience. It is all part of our focus on ensuring that Audi ownership is both pleasurable and free from unnecessary concerns. We are confident this is the way to deliver the continued growth of Audi progressive performance in Australia.”

The A1 1.4 TFSI Attraction 6-speed manual features turbo-charging and direct injection and delivers 90 kW and 200Nm, providing lively acceleration of 8.9 seconds to 0-100km/h and fuel consumption of just 5.3L /100km on combined cycle.

The Audi A1 standard specification lacks nothing in terms of technology, dynamics or safety with all A1 models featuring standard ESP stability program with electronic limited-slip differential, 6 airbags, 15-inch alloy wheels and iPod connectivity.

The new A1 1.4 TFSI Attraction 6-speed manual, supported by the innovative Audi Finance A1 Inclusive package, will be in Audi’s nationwide dealer network for viewing, test drives and order from Friday December 10.
