After weeks of build up Audi has finally revealed its much anticipated new A1 supermini to the world ahead of the car's international debut at Geneva.

The A1 is a direct rival to BMW's highly successful Mini Cooper. As such, prices for the premium sector hatchback are expected to start at around £13,000 when the car goes on sale in the UK.

Audi claims it has shrink-wrapped everything the brand stands for into the new three-door compact car. The A1 will be available to order from May this year.
