IED, is that any relation to the design house IAD, who made, among other things, the Venus concept?

Definitely not, IAD (International Automotive Design)is a UK based company founded in the 1970's.

While IED (Istituto Europeo di Design) is a Turin, Italy based company.

PassoCorto has a very sporty profile. A concept car with a technical but evocative name, intentionally requested to be in Italian by the Hyundai Design Center Europe as a tribute to the Made in Italy design that is studied at the IED. PassoCorto, the tenth full scale model created by Istituto Europeo di Design of Turin, is a sports car, extremely compact in size.

Argh, I've forgotten 'bout it altogether. How embarrassing. Guess I'll have to "unlike" it.

Edit: Oh, the threads have been merged together. That's nice. I guess.

I searched for it and nothing came up.

That's beautiful. Too bad a fully working prototype wasn't made.
