unfortunately, vw and audi dont produce any of their 3l/100km or 78 mpg cars any more. especially the audi a2 seems to me a format that could have competed with the Toyota Prius, if they would have lobbied a bit, added a particle filter and gotten these commuter lane stickers for it....... in germany the car failed as it was about 5000 bucks more than the 60mpg versions of the same cars, as far as i know.
