Aston Martin has announced the “idealization city automobile” will be launched in April with a bottom cost of ?30,995 (?36,560 / $49,340).

Now which you had a moment to let that sink in, a Cygnet costs a staggering ?21,000 (?24,765 / $33,440) some-more than a slightest costly Toyota iQ. This effectively puts the automobile in a same pricing difficulty as a BMW 3-Series, Mercedes C-Class, as well as Audi A4.

While that’s offered a automobile the bit short – it additionally comes with pacifist entry, heated front seats, and GPS navigation – the Cygnet seemingly defies all judicious explanation.

Undaunted by this, Aston Martin has also voiced intentions to suggest two special editions dubbed the White as well as Black. Full sum can be found in a press recover, though they feature unique styling, upgraded interiors, and the bespoke five-piece luggage set from Bill Amberg.

Engine specifications haven’t been announced, but power is expected to be supposing by a Toyota-sourced 1.33-liter Dual VVT-i engine with 97 hp (72 kW / 98 PS) and 123 Nm (91 lb-ft) of torque. It can be mated to a primer transmission (likely a five-speed) or an discretionary CVT.

The Cygnet will be restricted to Europe, though the association is “actively working upon expanding market availability” for 2012.
