The Audi A2 is set to make a comeback by 2012. The 2nd generation A2 will get rid of the expensive spaceframe assembly of its older sibling and give way for the more conventional monocoque made of steel similar to the A1.

The decision by the German car manufacturer will make the price of the new A2 competitive against the products of rival brands like Mercedes-Benz and BMW.

Audi has not released details about the styling lines of the upcoming A2 but had hinted that it will borrow elements from its predecessor with a high one-box design and narrow tracks.

Rupert Stadler, Audi chairman, also disclosed that the electric drivetrain is top priority and they are also considering implementing the range extender similar to that of the A1 e-tron for the upcoming A2.
