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.

The comparison is a real stretch. The Aygo lacked the electro-pneumatic valve train of the Koenigsegg.

It's closer in weight and performance to a 36 HP Beetle.

I was referring to the Koesnigsegg Jesko, which has traditional overhead cams on a V8 engine, not the Freevalve that Koesnigegg had designed. It's comparible in the sense that both are rather simple, traditional vehicles. No hybrid drive train, no AWD, no frills, just car and nothing else. The Koesnigsegg still gets best 0 to 400kph without all that stuff other (hyper) cars have. The Aygo got great economy, again, without all that stuff other (consumer) cars have.

The Jesko is lighter than the cars it took the title of Fastest from 0 to 400kph from, because it doesn't have the bloat of a hybrid drive train or such.

Your point of view makes sense somehow...
