The Ligier IXO is a two-seat, diesel-powered microcar from the French manufacturer Ligier, produced roughly between 2011 and 2014. Like other microcars, it is a front-engine vehicle designed for urban and regional use. It is often sold as a moped car or "heavy quadricycle" in European markets, and is typically restricted to a maximum speed of 45 km/h (about 28 mph).
Features and variations
Engine: The IXO models were equipped with two-cylinder, four-stroke diesel engines, such as the DCI 492 and DCI 442, manufactured by Lombardini.
Trim levels: The IXO was available in various trim levels, such as the sporty Ligier IXO Treck and Ligier IXO Sport, which may include additional cosmetic features.
Transmission: A Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT) is used to transfer power from the engine to the wheels.
Body and chassis: The IXO features a plastic ABS body, which is relatively inexpensive to replace.
