2009 Toyota iQ: First of new small-car family

Next Yaris, seven-seat van, and Insight rival hybrid to share iQ architecture

Toyota has developed an all-new, innovative compact-vehicle architecture. First seen on the new iQ, the tiny front-engine four-seat car that's barely a foot longer than a smart fortwo and goes on sale in Europe and Japan this winter, this architecture will form the basis for the next-generation Yaris, a seven-seat microvan, and a hybrid to challenge the CY 2009 Honda Insight.
