The Aston Martin Cygnet. Based off the Toyota IQ.
Yeah, you read that right. No, this isn't a joke for April Fool's.
What is the Cygnet? It's a genius business strategy, that's what it is.
Aston Martin's two concepts this year? The million-dollar monster One-77, and this. One has a 7.3 liter V12, the other, a 1.3 liter I-4.
First of all, this will only be made available for sale to people who already own another Aston Martin. Don't even try going to your local exotic dealership and attempting to buy one of these, when it comes out. You won't get one. Your best hope will be to search Ebay in a couple years.
It will be priced at 20,000 GBP, or around 33,000 US dollars. According to Ulrich Bez, it will be fully customizable right out of the factory, just like any other Aston Martin. It will be available in Europe first, and a US release is being very strongly hinted at by Bez (and considering that the Scion iQ is coming out here later this year, no extra work would be needed to make it US ready).
