A mini-yaris!

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/liv...n_page_id=1770

Don't know if that link worked, but I found the article at (and this isn't a plug) DrudgeReport.com. Looks really cool, but the article didn't say if it would be available in the U.S. Probably not. It also didn't mention any gas mileage expectations.

I don't think it would make it to the US, bummer. I bet it gets great mileage. Give me a turbo diesel version!

I like it, too. Is it going to be the replacement for the Aygo?

If that car by some anti-capitalist miracle makes it to the U.S. I'll be the first one in my region to own one. That is the perfect combination of usability for me, and I bet I could hypermile the bejeezus out of it.

My guess is no. I think the Aygo is getting a mid-cycle up date but that's just looks. I think this car is aimed at the Smart. I was rumored that Toyota will bring over a Smart competitor to the U.S. but that might be one in a million.

Anyway I like it! Cool looking as well!
