Funny you should mention that because there are persistent rumors that Toyota is working on a small “city car” (based on the Toyota Aygo sold in Europe) that will be sold in the USA. We could see a concept of this new model probably some time in the first half of 2008.

There will be a lot of competition for the emerging city car market. People will demanding a car that's small enough to park in the crowded city, maneuverable on busy streets and yet which is comfortable on the inside, can hold a lot of cargo and is safe. No one wants to drive a glorified Yugo. The automaker that can deliver on these demands will rule the city car market of the future.

Nissan is also bringing a smaller car to the US....not sure if it will be based on the $5999 car destined for India.
