First it was the Smart car. Then everyone started coming up with their own version of compact cars like Toyota iQ, Fiat 500, Nissan Micra and even Tata Nano. And previously I saw Peugeot also designing a concept crossover scooter/car - the BB1 which surprisingly can fit 4 people in.
So, now. If you've ever been dreaming of owning one Aston Martin - now you can. But not the typical Aston martin that you saw James Bond driving. Rather a small or scaled down version - the Aston Martin Cygnet - tauted to be the 'new luxury commuter concept car'. If you think it look like Toyota iQ, well, you're not wrong. Coz rumor has it it does based on the infamous Toyota's baby anyway.
What's underneath the hood? Apart from one-liter, three cylinder engine; it also boast a 5-star EuroNCAP safety rating (kinda similar to iQ, but better than Smart fortwo), embellished with a sporty grille, bespoke alloy wheels and a luxury interior. And of course, you'll get the Aston Martin badge. Price wise? Yet to be known, since this baby Aston will go on display next March during Geneva Motor Show.
Thought you could be a James Bond too with this Aston Martin? No, you won't. Probably just his sidekick's assistant. (that's lower than his sidekick..lol!)
