Model-specific DVSA data not separately available; figure shown is Audi's overall brand average for context.

What to know

DVSA's published data doesn't break the A1 out as its own line item, so Audi's overall brand average of 78.4% is shown here instead.

Given the pattern seen elsewhere in Audi's range, where the smaller A3 and A4 both test below the larger Q5 and Q3, it's worth being cautious about assuming the A1 automatically matches the brand's overall strong average. Checking a specific car's own MOT history is the more reliable approach for this smaller end of the range.

Check a specific A1's MOT history, tax status, and advisories by registration number.
