 MTM Audi A1 Nardo Edition hits 324 km/h
MTM Audi A1 Nardo Edition - 20.7.2011

Big numbers, small package

If you thought the Audi A1 Clubsport Quattro concept was impressive, take a look at MTM's Nardo Edition.

On the occassion of the annual Nardo Highspeed gathering attended by select tuning companies such as 9ff, G-Power, SpeedArt and MKB, MTM modified the engine to produce 500 PS (368 kW / 493 hp) and 600 Nm (442 lb-ft) of torque. It sends power to the front-wheels through a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential, which enables the A1 to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 4.5 seconds and hit a top speed of 324 km/h (201 mph).

The only special modification made to improve aerodynamics was the use of wheel covers.

Wow! Could have a faster take off if it could get all that power down I think. The ultimate iron fist in a velvet glove.

Oh my.. that is one hot pocket rocket. MTM could do better with their car graphic design.

it's using the 2,5l 5 cylinder engine from the TT RS. It's also using th TT's front axle, that's why it has carbon fibre front fenders. this thing would need the RS's quattro system to really kick ass.

The torque steer will probably rip your arms off.

I am skeptical because... I saw the front brakes on a different site... For crying out loud there's no point going that fast if you can't stop
