AUDI is getting up front and personal to attract more small car fans with new Black and Contrast spec options on its popular A1 supermini.

The duo can also be combined with a more powerful 2.0-litre, 143PS TDI diesel engine that complements the existing 1.6-litre 105PS unit.

Contrast Edition specification costs £1,350 more than the price of an equivalent A1 Sport model, and can be bought with all engines in the A1 range with the exception of the 1.4 TFSI 185PS.

It boasts a contrasting colour for the roof line and for aerodynamic elements plus larger 17-inch bi-colour alloy wheels. A double-blade roof spoiler, also in a contrasting colour, can be added at extra cost. 

The Black Edition alternative is based on the top S line spec and available exclusively with the 185PS 1.4-litre TFSI petrol engine and newly introduced 143PS 2.0-litre TDI.

For a premium of £1,100 over the S line models, it adds a black styling treatment for the grille surround and number plate holder, dark tinted rear privacy glass, 18-inch titanium finish alloys and Xenon Plus headlights with LED daytime running lights.

Inside, it also has electronic climate control plus an Audi Sound System speaker upgrade giving 180 watts of output.
