    If this is Version A of the new Prius line up, I will definitely get one. I like the fact that it is a true commuter car and when I commute, I am the only one with maybe one passenger.

    Wow. Looks well thought out and designed. And only 117 inches long. I want one too.

    Personally, I do not like the instrumentation. It looks cheap.

    Yes. Dash looks kind of cheap. But I still want one if the car turns out to be close to what is suggested. Wonder what happened to the MFD -- or at least the Consumption/Energy screens or data?

    iQ = Smart Car?
    I think all dedicated 'commuter cars' should be entirely electric.

    It's about ½ metre long than a smart but still shorter than a MINI.

    It looks like an updated Toyota Endo concept car. It looks good to me.

    Now my wife is having Cuteness problems.
    She likes the Citroen, the Mitshibushi iMIEV, now the Toyota iQ.

    Great name for the car....great for puns! It's "in" with the i + Whatever.

    "Does that car have a high IQ?"

    "Why yes, the battery is full green right now."
    :lol: :D
