I would think it will be highly unlikely that we will see this car in the  
USA.

French  automaker Renault will unveil its brand new Twingo minicar at this  
 
year's Geneva Motor Show in March. That may not seem like exciting news,  
but 
the  new Twingo actually marks a radical departure for cars in  the 
segment, 
as it  utilizes a rear-engined, rear-wheel-drive  layout.

It's the first time Renault has used such a setup since the  1970s, and  
the 
first time anyone has used such a layout in a small  car for quite some  
time--aside from Mercedes sub-brand Smart. That's  no coincidence, as Smart 
and  
Renault have worked together on  developing the new car--the Twingo shares 
its  underpinnings with the  next-generation Smart Fortwo and  Forfour.
