Audi to revisit A2 in 2013

Audi plans on reintroducing the A2 to the market sometime in 2013, but this time around the minicompact model will have some different characteristics. Instead of an aluminum frame the new A2 will be made of steel. In the original model the high-tech, lightweight aluminum kept Audi from aggressively pricing the car, but the steel frame should allow the make to offer the vehicle at a more affordable price while still keeping it’s luxury appeal and amenities.

Also on the slate for the rebirth is a high-efficiency 3 cylinder engine. It is expected to launch as a battery-powered e-tron and will likely have a zero-emission version available as well.

“With this car, Audi will offer a highly efficient solution to the mobility requirements of the modern metropolis,” promises Audi chairman Rupert Stadler.
