The Toyota Aygo X UNDERCOVER has been shown off during Paris Fashion Week as a collaboration vehicle outfitted with the stylings of Jun Takahashi. The vehicle is inspired by the creative philosophies of Takahashi including an inclination to break stereotypes and not conform, and boasts a bi-tone gray body specially developed for the project by Toyota. The vehicle is accented by pops of coral red color both inside and out, and has a set of black 18-inch alloy wheels with a series of branded seats.
The Toyota Aygo X UNDERCOVER will be limited to just 5,000 examples and was commented on by Takahashi himself who said, "It was my first experience working on a car and with Toyota being such a prestigious and innovative Japanese brand, it came with deep emotional meaning and significance. Fusing together two contradicting elements, or worlds, is exciting for me."
