Toyota's answer to the Smart Car just maybe their new concept compact called the iQ. The iQ is one of the smallest concept cars on the floor at the Frankfurt Motor Show in Germany. Its styling is indicative of the Scion.
I still prefer the Smart and trust that it will be available some time in the not to distant future as a PHEV. The Aygo appears to be heading into the same uglyness as the Prius. JMHO
