This has a hybrid engine: a 1.4 TFSi engine, with 150 hp and a DSG gear box; and an electric engine that develops 41 hp and 200 Nm for the rear bridge.

Audi Metroproject accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.8 seconds and the fuel consumption is of 4.9 liter / 100 km. So, that means great performance with reduced consumption.

The list with the changes which were brought to this model isn’t available, yet, but I can bet that, besides the optical tuning, there is sure an increased power.
I can only offer you a set of photos.

Amazing Audi, don’t you think?

Tribu is a SUV with 3 doors, which has few spectacular solutions regarding its form: original lines of body and an impressive grille, which reminds of Audi’s Single Frame Face. According to Seat, the series production for the next year will use a longer platform, from Tiguan.
