Toyota IQ

What is it?
The Toyota iQ, is Toyota tiniest offering and is according to them the smallest four-seater in the world.

What is it like inside?
Not as small as it looks but at 850kg for the base model, the iQ is a modern tardis and a superb example of lightweight engineering. Inside it feels roomy and spacious..

What is it like to drive?

It is funky, feels zippy and thanks to a wheel at each corner it has sharp dynamics. Pushed hard it runs out of steam, but honestly why would you bother!

What is it likely to cost?
Prices start at €13,920 and Fuel economy is good at 4.6 litre per 100km.

Overall
The IQ is a fantastic city car, it has a wide cabin, plenty of glass and big doors and a spacious interior but it is pricey compared with rivals.
