Spy Shots: Mystery concept caught in Spain

Mystery concept car in Barcelona -- Click above for image gallery
Autoblog Quiz of the Day: the minicar pictured above was spotted in Barcelona, Spain at Central del Poblenou Park, during what sounds like a photo or commercial shoot. Two people were caught driving it, the one in the sky blue outfit and hat looks to be a model/actress. The car, devoid of any logos or identifying marks, was accompanied by several trucks with French license plates – along with about ten people who didn't appreciate the person taking photos. Can anyone help us solve the mystery? Check out the image gallery below, and leave your guessses in 'Comments.'

Reminds me of Nissan Micra from a glance.

It definately has the ugly looks of a Citroen and the modern interpretation of the design cues of the 2CV.

Agreed. My first thought was this could only be French, especially a Citroen.

It definitely has the look and feel of the Mitsubishi i and the Mitsubishi Se-Ro concept that led to the i. Hmm...

No, I legitimately think this could be the new Gordan Murray small city car. It certainly would be a new idea...

Has to be some sort of Citroen, world's ugliest designed cars.

I don't know what you're talking about. Most new Citroens (and the DS, and the SM....) have great designs.

If by ugly you mean beautifully futuristic and simply too cool for you....

Gordon Murray Concept?

My initial thought too but it's too big. His self imposed 24 month development period ends in July 2009, so perhaps that's plausible.

My guess is that it is the new microcar that Gordon Murray has been working on...

solid guess.

I had the same guess. It also has a Mitsubishi feel, as previously mentioned.
