LESS METAL, MORE FUN WITH AYGO'S X-WAVE OPEN TOP OPTION

How do you make driving a Toyota Aygo even more fun? One sure-fire way is to provide some classic open-top enjoyment with a new retractable x-wave canvas roof.

Looking ahead to longer, warmer days, Toyota has launched the x-wave as an option on the five-door Aygo x-pression model. Finished in black, the roof is factory fitted and is full length, ensuring that anyone travelling in the rear seats also gets to enjoy some of the wind-in-the-hair experience.

The roof is electrically operated, using a simple switch next to the map light control in the headlining.

Specifying the x-wave adds even more appeal to the Aygo x-pression, which also features 15-inch alloy wheels, front fog lamps, projector headlights with LED daytime running lights, the x-touch multimedia system with DAB and Bluetooth, reversing camera and air conditioning.

Gloss black elements in the bodywork and the cabin help the small car make a big style statement, contrasting with White Flash, Electro Grey, Silver Splash, Red Pop and Deep Blue Buzz paint options.

The x-wave roof, price £895 (including VAT), can also be ordered together with the x-tra convenience pack, and with all other options and customisation features available for x-pression, apart from the roof decals.

they built up cheapest vehicle quite fine... interior is hard but not bad, and exterior is step above the class... fine lines in sheet metal, projectors lights with built in LED DRLS plus additional LED DRLs... all in all, much more expensive looking than what it is.

From a design perspective it has a full "floating" roof. Could then really be the case for new RX.

Can't understand why they can't rebadge this into a nice hatch for Scion.

Maybe would be too small and too expensive (for the size) for the USA. Americans equate size with price, so small size = small price.

iQ is generally much nicer car than Aygo overall, so if iQ doesnt sell, Aygo would not either... it is car build to be cheapo in Europe, exports to US likely wont make any sense.
