Toyota iQ Inspires Royal College of Art’s Design Competition

In what appears to be more of a promotional gig than anything else, Toyota has marked the launch of the new iQ minicar in the UK by forming a new partnership with London’s Royal Collage of Art.

The winning designs will be shown in a special exhibition in early 2009. Hit the jump to see pictures of the iQ on display at the Royal College of Art. -Continued
