Audi A1 Win Best Small Car Award

The Audi A1 looks on course to continue its domination at automobile award ceremonies after it picked up its 5th award of 2011.

The A1 which was awarded the Best Small Car at the 2011 Fleet World honours, is also flying high in the Audi A1 car lease world as the German manufactures surpassed countrymen BMW as the most requested car to leasing companies. Steve Moody, Fleet World editor said: “Audi’s new A1 is just so desirable, combining chunky good looks with meticulous attention to detail and quality

“It might not be the cheapest, but strong performance on the used market will balance the books. Pre-launch, it always looked like being a winner – now on fleet, it has proved it.”

This award follows on from WhatCar? magazines Car of the Year and Supermini of the Year awards. The A1 also picked up the Best Small Hatchback from Parkers and Best Luxury Small Car at the CarBuyer Awards.

Audi launched the A1 at the Geneva Motor Show in 2010 aiming the vehicle at young,affluent urban buyers in a bid to compete with BMW’s release of the MINI.

The A1 is currently one of the most leased vehicle in the industry and is becoming more and more popular as people appear to have seen the benefits of leasing over buying outright. Automotive industry experts however have stressed the importance of shopping around for lease deals and to make sure that all prices are definitive.
