World's smallest four-seater car takes centre stage
By RAY MASSEY
The world's smallest four-seater micro-car was unveiled by Toyota at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
The 'IQ' prototype is just 9ft 9 inches long - about three inches shorter than the original Mini - and is expected in showrooms within two years priced between £9,000 and £10,000.
It has enough room for three adults and a small child, but a sliding seat arrangement means it can be driven as a two seater with added boot space.
A Toyota spokesman said:'It's the world's smallest four seater car.'
It was one of a series of small and 'green' cars on display at the show where manufacturers were anxious to display their environmental technology.
Britain's new Mini Clubman started production at BMW's Oxford plant as the car was shown simultaneously for the first time in public at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
