They would surely have to be under the Mercedes banner. They are Mercedes AMG after all.

Though Aston didn't and released that Toyota Aston

Well Aston has been owned by hedge funds/investment co's for quite a while now. They aren't aligned with anyone, but have been using AMG engines.

And yeah they did that little Toyota Aygo. Aston Martin Cygnet I think it was called.

No idea how they pass the average emissions now. Do they have to buy emissions credits or something?

Think they might be buying credits from Tesla like a lot of other companies do.

Think it was a Toyota IQ.

Yes the IQ. Aygo looks like a slightly bigger 4 door version.
