vw up has almost identical proportions and is probably the closest you can get to a twingo mk1 with a new car

They must be struggling to sell their overpriced crap. Going for low-hanging fruit like back in the early 2000's with the Catera and low-priced luxory.

Up vs. Twingo

Attached: R0010651.jpg (640x480, 97K)

This is from the early 2000's

only externally
up!'s interior is a shit
>no sliding rear seat for bigger cargo/more legroom (not even twingo-only feature)
>no one-click folding of rear seat that gives flat low floor
>no front leg and knee room, intrusive yet empty center console
>cannot fold front seat back or forth for long packages (le surfboard meme)
>non removable headrests to make life even harder
>no bed mode
had twingo, sat in up! VW a shit.
these are just facts, not even talking about styling (lack of it)

Makes me wonder why so very few cars have even attempted to use the same interior flexibility concepts as the Twingo.
Even its very own successors ditched it.

You're and idiot

Besides the Jazz/Fit, what else is there? I'd say 1 counts as "very few".

My guess is that really clever interiors are really expensive to develop, especially since safety regulations fucking everywhere make the car lose massive amounts of space inside.
So I guess they think investing so much in engineering this compared to the little boost it would get in sales (probably think people won't care too much about this in the small car segment or they don't want to hurt the little bigger and more expensive cars a class above)

Nobody else needs to do it because as long as 1 car on the market does it, that "niche" is filled.

I'm just sad they didn't give the thing sliding doors. I know that'd add a point of failure to a relatively simple car, but you can't deny that it's the best solution to the ingress/egress of large Amerifats/cargo that isn't the back hatch.

Pic related is the only car that ever got it right.

indeed honda jazz has very smart interior, although achieved completely different way. In Jazz fuel tank is under front seats, not rear ones. Thats why magic happens i the rear.
Sliding rear bench can be found in other cars like Yaris, Renault Modus, Twingo II (sadly optional), 2004+ Mitsubishi Colt (optional), 2004-2006 Smart Forfour (plus front folding front seat)
It's a great feature in small cars

too complex

This pic pretty much explains why I replaced my dead twingo with forfour

exceptionally practical cars are cute.
it's like they really try their best to satisfy you

did you know that if you need modern 2-row 6-seater, you have options other than multipla?

Fun fact. The last 6 seater 2 door coupe ever produced was the 1995 to 1999 Chevrolet Monte Carlo

What new car is as practical as the Twingo/Jazz ?
I have to say I really like to concept, which I didn't know prior. Is the Jazz a good (used?) car, by the way?

>What new car is as practical as the Twingo/Jazz ?
New jazz. I think Yaris over generations gone backwards to being bland shitbox and lost features that 1st gen had.
Check those >Is the Jazz a good (used?) car, by the way?
yes but people know it, hence may be horribly Jazztaxed, depends on country
