What is the Scion iA?

The Scion iA is a four-door subcompact sedan with a separate trunk. It was Scion’s first sedan, joining a range of compact cars from Toyota’s US brand, which was created to develop distinctive products and appeal to younger customers.

Introduced for the 2016 model year, the iA was among Scion’s final new models before the brand transitioned back to Toyota. Its US EPA listing covers that model year.
