Toyota's take on the Smart-4-2, a continuation of the Endo concept. Wow, more than a foot shorter than the Yaris!! At first glance the exterior styling is a bit weird, but it's growing on me in given time.

I'm loving the interior

Yeah this is cool. I love the original and new MINI's so if this is like the classic it would be cool! At least Toyota's take on it. But it would be cool to have a small car to zip around in and out of traffic like that at least as a secondary car. I don't care about SUV's and what not, they can shove it!

Everything on this car is small. This concept model is powered by a 2 cilinder engine.

This looks like Toyota's answer to the new Fiat 500 instead of the Smart. Looks similar to that car too except this looks more aggressive than the cute Fiat. It looks like the designers wanted as many triangles they can put as possible.

Best-looking Toyota concept ever, period. I'd put put that thing in my driveway now even if it's a death trap.

Hmm; how 'bout a FT-HS that had unfortunate penis-reduction surgery?

I think it looks great too; much better than the Smart.

Here is some more info on this car.
Apparently to "justify" costs they might have to price it higher than originally planned as the cheap car needs more work, that's what I got from it. But hopefully they can figure something out cause it would be cool if they came out with this car!
