    It looks like a Mini Cooper mixed with a Smart ForTwo mixed with a Scion xA.

    This is very different from what Aston is doing.

    This car is badged as an ABARTH but with a few Ferrari stickers and bits here and there. Fiat has done "Ferrari Editions" many times before over the years and I don't think it's a big deal.

    Aston, on the other hand, will sell that iQ actually BADGED as an Aston.

    It's VERY different.

    I think this car is a bit of a homage to ferrari from fiat. Personally I have driven a Fiat 500, and out of the little car segment this is one of the few cheap and cheerful cars that I would even consider.

    The Aston iQ is more than just badged - it is re-bodied by Aston as well (but not re-powered).
