2012 Audi A2 Mini-MPV To Offer Electric-Only Drivetrain

The 2012 Audi A2, which will be positioned between Audi A1 and Audi A3, will be offered with an electric-only drivetrain, according to sources who talked to Autocar. The A2 will be launched one year earlier than its key rival, the all-electric 2013 BMW Megacity car.
This is more than mere speculation, however, as Audi chairman Rupert Stadler has previously confirmed not only the arrival of the A2, but has stated the importance and priority of competing in the growing electric-vehicle segment.
In production from 1999 to 2005, the first-generation A2 debuted with an all-aluminium construction. However, the new A2 could make do without the expensive aluminium spaceframe construction, settling instead for a conventional steel monocoque chassis, one likely to be borrowed from the A1.
Looks-wise, the second-generation A2 is expected to pick up styling cues from its predecessor, which sported a tall, narrow and somewhat awkward profile which makes the original A2 more mini-MPV than hatchback.
