  • Aston Martin Cygnet configurator

    Aston Martin has launched the online configurator for its new super-mini Cygnet. The car is based on Toyota iQ, but it is far more stylish and luxurious.

    Aston Cygnet is powered by а 1.33 litre dual VVT-I four-cylinder petrol engine with 98PS (72 kW) at 6000RPM and 125Nm (92 lb-ft) at 4400RPM. 0 to 100 km/h takes 11.8 seconds and the top speed is 170 km/h (106 mph). The small city car returns 56.5 mpg – 5 l / 100 km.

    The engine is mated to a 6-speed manual with Stop & Start technology and gear shift indicator and there is an optional Constantly Variable Transmission (CVT) with Eco Driving Indicator.

    Cygnet is offered with a vast range of exterior paint schemes and a choice of four 16” sets of wheels. There are also go-faster stripes, which can be painted in either the same color as the body or in gloss black.
