This prompts the cancelation or delay of offerings that are not important. An A1 Cabriolet will be less important for the producer and in the result, there are chances to receive it in real life are virtually defunct.

Speaking about the standard A1 supermini, it will receive a new generation till the end of 2017 or beginning of 2018.

The vehicle can lose its status of the automaker’s entry-level car as a newest city vehicle is awaited till 2019. It will ride on the latest New Small Family chassis that is underpinning the VW. A fully-electric variant sold together with conventionally-powered offering equipped with petrol engines.
