Toyota iQ VS Smart

Toyota is longer and wider Smart: focus on perpendicular parking at iQ unconvincing. However, in some parts of Europe are so cars on the streets is prohibited, saying that it is dangerous to other road users.

Rear-wheel drive rear-ultracompact mad “stool” on behalf of Smart – is a solid product with its own ideology, strengths and weaknesses. A iQ – just little car, creating by the authors on the way lost their meaning. Car or anything. March 1 for the mythical country have to sacrifice the true super-compact, trunk, passenger comfort. In general, everything. Besides tseny. I love small cars. But to speak seriously about buying toyotovskogo baby in my way at least two reasons. First, iQ priparkuesh not across the road. Second, do not fall in love.

For iQ (or “Project F») the Japanese have developed an original platform – was too specific layout problem. Front – Front McPherson located on the engine with the steering rack and the rear shock absorbers mounted Semi suspension with reverse bias. All for the sake of freedom in the cabin. Flat fuel tank is located under the driver’s seat.

Engine iQ – like Yaris, only deforsirovan to 98 hp to go pod100 silnoynalogovoy-bar. A characteristic feature of the power unit iQ – gearbox, differential deployed forward. Unequal length drive affects the exchange rate stability during acceleration and braking. By the way, Japanese marketers figured out that in Europe, 60% of consumers prefer iQ with the “mechanics” and share the diesel version will not exceed 7%.

The key to the four-seat layout – asymmetrical front panel, which allows you to move on the rights of passengers forward of the driver, freeing up the rear. Simple and elegant move.

The massive center console hides the smallest climate control in toyotovskogo lineup. It Yaris compact system by 20%. Supplier – Japanese company Denso.

In Europe, the top version of the iQ is equipped with a navigation system with touch screen.
Safety

In addition to the rigid body structure of power in the peacekeeping arsenal iQ – all conceivable variety airbags. There is also a knee airbag for the driver and the airbag to prevent diving under the front passenger seat belt, and a unique rear curtain insuring rear riders.

According to the results of crash tests Euro NCAP smallest Toyota earned the maximum five stars. For adult occupant protection iQ received 33 points out of 36 (91%), Child Safety – 35 points out of 49 (71%), though, and after re-crash test. Level of pedestrian safety – 19.5 points out of 36 (54%), and proactive security – six of seven. Interestingly, in the “shock” program involved the easiest version of iQ weighing only 886 kg.

Design

The forerunners were two serial iQ show car – a concept Endo 2005 (pictured above) and the pre-production iQ Concept, which was presented to v2007-m.V work on the car was involved and our compatriot Vladimir Pies, who at that time worked in the European design center, ED2. However, on the assembly line put option, developed mainly in Japan.

Since iQ – not an athlete, we did without trips to the racetrack and took refuge from the cold mostly amateur video. One must ever begin the process of integrating media formats. The more so because our Alexey Smirnov – TV people. In short, we will continue to develop this area.
