Toyota iQ2 5MT

If you've never seen a Toyota iQ in the flesh, I can assure you that the pictures you see here don't do it justice. This is one of those cars that you simply have to see up close and personal to really appreciate it. I'm not saying that because it looks great - when it comes to city car style, the Fiat 500 still wears the crown - it's because when you see just how small the iQ is, you'll find it hard to believe that Toyota has squeezed back seats inside. I actually found it somewhat unnerving driving the iQ, since it grabbed a ludicrous amount of attention wherever I took it. Pedestrians stopped in their tracks and stared, other drivers craned their necks in a frankly dangerous manner to get a better look, and once Toyota's little baby was parked up it drew the kind of crowds that I had previously considered the reserve of Ferraris, Astons and Porsches! OK, so the iQ doesn't garner the kind of lust as the aforementioned exotic cars do, but when it comes to curiosity, the iQ takes the proverbial biscuit. But the iQ is far more than just a pretty (or should that be unusual) face. What Toyota has done is create a small, no, a tiny car, that doesn't compromise on passenger space or creature comforts. Believe me when I say that in the technology department the iQ can put cars costing eight times as much to shame - seriously!
