Actually I don't think its bigger than the xB, and I want to say its on a different platform just because its exclusively for the European market. It was a joint production venture with Citron (sp?) and that other French company I can't spell. The reason it came out in Europe well besides to compete in the supermini market but also the second gen Yaris got bigger and moved up market so this is positioned below it, so I believe its smaller than the Yaris, maybe some demisions are about the same.

From what I understand, the Aygo we will get in the States is going to be an all-new version. The new U.S.-bound Aygo will probably be bigger/more powerful than what is currently being sold in Europe. As with many "world cars", the U.S. usually gets the bigger powerplant offerings due to our driving habits; the current U.S. Yaris is a good example of this situation.

If I had to guess, I'd peg the U.S. Aygo at about ~140-145" overall length and weighing just over a ton. Horsepower maybe around 90-100. MPG ~38 city/45 highway. These are all just guesses; I'm basically "downsizing" the current Yaris.

Ya heard it here first...

Anybody else have a guess?

I was referring to the dimensions of the Yaris not the Aygo. And it Citroen and Renault, and I want the Renault Clio sport or the citroen i think it was 207 or some sort...

Opps! Sorry!

Not to start a pissing contest but referring to the post I originally quoted the Yaris is built on a different platform than the xB, but it does have similar drivetrain such as tranny and engine. The xB is based on the older platform in which the previous gen Yaris did ride on, modified of course

It is a good car, but very very expensive in Europe.

I thought it was supposed to be the entry level first time buyer car? Not expensive, well for a new car at least...

Like a cheap supermini for the urbanite? Maybe it depends on where you are in Europe?
