What's this, from when - for 1 point?

Google Image Search continues to raise its ugly head on AutoPuzzles.
For the sake of our newer members who may not be aware of past discussions on it, Google Image Search as a means of solving puzzles is banned on this website.

AutoPuzzles is primarily a game of automotive knowledge, not of who can copy and paste the quickest.

We ask all members to remember and respect this, and retain the right to ask puzzle-solvers how they came to their answer.

Have fun!

Isigo, a microcar designed by Piero Rivolta (the son of Renzo Rivolta) in 1998. It should be read as 'Easy Go'. Don't know for sure if it ever made into production ...

As far as I know it was called ISO Isigo, and not Rivolta Isigo.

Actually I thought it was just called Isigo but I put the Rivolta in for clarification.
I can't find any mention of an ISO Isigo anywhere, but the 'site where I got the picture from does call it a Rivolta Isigo..

About 900 Isigos were built from 1997 to 1999 when the company went bankrupt. The factory was taken over by Tonino Lamborghini for his Town Life company. The Isigo was slightly modified and offered as the Town Life Ferruccio Junior.
