We Go Crazy For The RWD Toyota Aygo Crazy



For those looking for the small footprint of an economy car combined with the RWD burnout capability of a muscle car, Toyota presents the Aygo Crazy concept car. Based on the Toyota Aygo city car, this one-off has a turbocharged version of Toyota's 1.8-liter four banger squeezed into the backseat (replacing the three-cylinder front-mounted mill). And of course, with 200 horsepower going to the rear wheels of a car that weighs just over a ton, you're not going to want power steering, ESP or ABS getting in the way. We think that would be truly crazy.

Set to premier at the British International Motor Show next month, this likely isn't something you'll be able to buy or that they'll build in any large quantity. Still, anyone wanting an Aygo that can do 0-62 mph in 5.7 seconds and hit a top speed of 127 mph now has a blueprint for how to make that happen. All you need is an MR2 donor car.

It really does look crazy, like a toy or a remote control car but can you believe how fun it would be to drive this car?

For that size and hp, I'd expect a much higher top speed. How does it handle? Looks like it will easily tip over. Anyone seen that Top Gear episode where they played football with a bunch of Aygos?

by the way they played car football with these cars in Top Gear, it handles pretty damn well... and for a small car seems pretty well built with all the crashing it took in that episode...

but i dont think they work well in NA streets... with all the SUVs and pickup trucks running about... not exactly Aygo vs Aygo action...

Ive seen a lot of Smartcars around where i live lately. If ive seen that around, then the Aygo should make it okay here as well.
