Toyota iQ

First unveiled at this year's Frankfurt Motor Show, Toyota showed off its IQ concept which is due to be launched at the end of 2008 and hit showrooms early next year.

The spacious little hatch is aimed at families that want the green credentials of a small car along with a healthy dollop of practicality and bags of room inside. Toyota claims that it will comfortably seat three adults and one child.

Along with the IQ, Toyota will also launch the Urban Cruiser – a small SUV that will emit less than 140g/km of CO2.

The all-new pair will join a further 16 models that the Japanese manufacturer plans to launch next year – most of which are revisions of exisiting models and will include the Prius and Avensis.
