But, now gradually experiencing the financial crisis and severely being hit by the recession period, the public has now started turning their heads towards the cost and most energy efficient cars, which are said to be the small mileage cars. This is what I personally felt as one among the public.
And "Toyota IQ" is one of them, which grabbed the views of all the people who are planning to buy an energy and cost efficient car. Here are some of its features and specifications discussed below.

The smallest Toyota ever – the iQ hatchback – isn’t coming to India. Toyota has just announced prices for the car, which will go on sale in Europe from January 2009. And at around Rs 7.5 lakh, it just won’t work in the Indian market. But the car looks so right for us – given the ever-increasing traffic congestion on our roads, the serious problem with finding parking space in most cities, and the fact that most cars carry only 1-3 occupants at any given time.
Powered by a 1.0-litre VVT-i engine, the Toyota iQ comes with alloy wheels, air-conditioning and safety systems like Anti-lock brakes (ABS), Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD), Vehicle Stability Control with steering assist (VSC+), Traction Control (TRC) and nine airbags, including a world-first rear window airbag.
We wish Toyota would develop an India-specific version of this car, with a 2+2 seating configuration, that would allow seating for two adults and two children, or, with the rear seat folded flat, two adults and space for some luggage. With an 800-1,000cc engine, which should be capable of running on petrol or CNG, such a car would be the perfect mass-market Toyota for India…
