A commenter on Audi's official A1 Facebook page has posted this photo of Justin Timberlake walking in front of what appears to be the production version of the Audi A1 supermini.
And if you're wondering what's the connection between Timberlake and the German automaker's answer to BMW's MINI, Audi announced on Wednesday that it has struck a deal with the pop singer to play the leading role in an Audi A1 Internet campaign that will be launched in the spring of 2010.
"As a superstar he appeals to a young target audience that we're particularly intent on exciting about the compact and efficient A1, which is superlatively well suited for city traffic," said Peter Schwarzenbauer, Member of the Board of Management of AUDI AG for Marketing and Sales
And now that we've done informing you about the promotional aspects of the A1, let us remind you that the new premium supermini from Audi will make its world debut at the 2010 Geneva Salon next March with European sales following shortly after.
There have been reports on the media claiming that the A1 will not make it to North America, but we haven't heard something official from Audi yet.
