The Aston Martin Cygnet will either create a chic new ‘exotic city car’ category, or it’ll be a flop that marks out any owners as total loonies with more money than sense.
That’s because the Cygnet - which is based on the £12,515 Toyota iQ 1.33 VVT-i - will have a price tag of £30,995.
But if that isn’t expensive enough, up to 100 lucky punters will be able to get their hands on a special Launch Edition that commemorates the start of Cygnet production and costs an astonishing £39,995.
Available in two colour schemes, the Cygnet Launch Edition White combines Snow White paint and White Diamond alloy wheels with Pearl White leather and Alcantara seats.
Alternatively, the Cygnet Launch Edition Black is finished in Magic Black metallic paint which has a deep sea green effect, while the interior is upholstered in pure black full grain leather, perforated with a diamond pattern.
Completing the Launch Edition package is a five-piece luggage set by British luxury bag maker Bill Amberg. However, don’t imagine this comprises assorted commodious suitcases, because the Cygnet simply wouldn’t have enough space to carry them. Instead, it includes a glove box bag, removable door pocket bag, holdall, garment bag and a collapsible tote bag, all finished in black leather and a technical fabric.
The serious purpose of the Cygnet is to drive down average CO2 emissions across the Aston Martin range. With a predicted figure of 116 g/km for the manual transmission version, it should definitely help achieve that.
