The most expensive version of the Toyota iQ you could get, for around €35,000, as an Aston Martin Cygnet is reportedly exiting production after just three years on the market.
The Aston Martin Cygnet is a three-door hatchback based on the Toyota iQ, created for those in need of luxury for their daily city drive. Apart from the signature Aston Martin front grille, some minor design tweaks and a leather stitched interior, the Cygnet is pretty much an iQ, having the same engine and even its six-speed manual gearbox.

However, the Cygnet was also produced in the idea of cutting down Aston Martin’s CO2 emission signature, with the 97 bhp gasoline engine emitting only 110 g of CO2/km. So, if you want a luxury, glorified Toyota iQ that also helps Aston be more ecological, you can still find one at the automaker’s dealerships.
