Toyota's

The Toyota iQ may be the smallest four-seater car on the market,
but is also one of the safest according to new independent crash
testing results from Euro NCAP... |
|
|
| |
 |
|
There is no questioning iQ’s status as one of the most
fuel-efficient cars on the market, but a new hypermiling
challenge has seen the tiny Toyota perform way beyond its
official mpg figures...
|
|
|
| |
 |
|
It is a common
assumption that the smaller the car, the more vulnerable driver
and passengers are in an accident. The new Toyota iQ – the
world’s smallest four-seat production model – is proof this need
not be the case, providing an unprecedented level of active and
passive safety protection for an A-segment model... |

The usual
place for a car’s fuel tank is beneath the rear seats, but in
the compact interior of the iQ this would make it impossible for
Toyota to achieve its goal of a sub-three-metre long car with
four seats. The solution was to create a flat fuel tank,
positioned beneath the vehicle floor... |

By saving
space under the bonnet, Toyota has been able to achieve
exceptional room inside iQ, creating a car that is less than
three metres long, yet has four seats on board. Using a centre
take-off steering gear for the Electric Power Steering (EPS), a
first for a Toyota vehicle, is a key element in achieving this
ultra-compact design...

front of the engine, a concept that opens up new and radical
opportunities for iQ’s small-but-spacious design... |
