Now I want an Aygo because it's just like a Koenigsegg!



Points:
  • The Koenigsegg Jesko has set a world acceleration record from 0 to 400kph, with a rather simple internal combustion engine and overall car design.
  • So if simplicity can make such records, why not in other fields like in efficiency and emissions?
  • The Toyota Aygo was a small simple car (except the 9 air bags to make it "safe") yet has been killed in favor of a new crossover version called the Aygo X that, of course, costs more and doesn't get any better fuel mileage.
  • Along with the Aygo, many simple, small, cheap cars are being killed off in favor of larger, more luxurious vehicles.
