Overview

Competing in the subcompact hatchback segment, the 2015 Scion iQ Hatchback is a direct competitor to the Honda Fit, the Toyota Yaris, and the Mitsubishi Mirage. The Scion iQ Hatchback starts off at an MSRP of $15,665 with a single trim in the lineup. Each trim is offered with a 1.3L Inline-4 engine and a continuously variable automatic transmission, producing 94 horsepower and 89 lb-ft of torque. Through this powertrain, the Scion iQ Hatchback manages a 0-60 of 10.4 seconds and a combined fuel economy of 37 MPG.

Buying Advice

As there is only one trim to choose from, we recommend making sure you get all the optional features, like a rear spoiler, 16-inch alloy wheels, lowering springs, sway bars, fog lamps, illuminated door sills, interior ambient lighting, leather-wrapped shift knobs, satellite radio, and many others.
