Car manufacturers have been following a necessary trend lately. Most car companies are now building cars that are much more compact and more environmentally friendly. With the world’s problems in traffic and the ongoing plight of our environment, car manufacturers have chosen wisely to build cars that are smaller and use less fuel. There is no other car that lives up to these criteria more completely than the Toyota IQ 3.

This is a small vehicle with a 1.33l Dual VVT-i engine that uses the Toyota Optimal Drive (aka: stop-start technology), which can save fuel up to three per cent. The Toyota IQ 3’s new engine can push out 98-hp with a maximum torque of 92 lb/ft, and the new Stop & Start System averages 58.9 mpg for the customer. In the multi-drive automatic model, the car usually averages a fuel economy of 55.4 mpg.

Although it is small, the Toyota IQ 3 has enough space to fit in three adults and some luggage. There is enough legroom for the passengers so that they will not feel cramped, and there is enough space for small amounts of luggage.  Other desirable features of this car are the leather seats and efficient satellite navigation. Toyota came out with the Toyota IQ 3 with only one colour option, white, but they have now decided to produce cars with more than one colour choice following customer demand.

The manufacturers of the Toyota IQ 3 recently released this car’s price tag. The hybrid vehicle has a starting price of £11,495 for the manual model, while the automatic model has a price tag of £12,495.
