Scion iQ Concept with widebody kit at NYIAS 09


The Toyota iQ will be making it onto American shores in the form of a Scion. A concept version of the Scion-badged car was shown at the New York International Auto Show 2009 this week. But it was no regular iQ – it was slapped on a bodykit penned by a Californian company called Five Axis, giving it an aggressive wide-body look. But looks are all the aggression the 3+1 seater is going to get as under the hood is only a 93 horsepower 1.3 liter VVT-i engine driving the front wheels. But it does get TEIN Super Street coilovers and 18 inch wheels wrapped with Yokohama S.drive tyres.

I dislike the colour. OK, but then 3 seats, will not make its way to malaysia anytime soon. This clearly for china or westerners with their 1 child

Normally l prefer a HONDA but this iQ whether in Toyota or SCION badge doesn’t matter (or even a Pero2) l really love it. A way brilliant than a Smart.
April 12, 2009 @ 9:00 pm
Still CUTE as ever!
April 12, 2009 @ 9:40 pm

April 12, 2009 @ 9:52 pm

April 12, 2009 @ 10:14 pm
M’sia here all have big big family. So those who afford or want to drive this would be those anak kaya. Same concept as Smart for Two.
April 12, 2009 @ 11:07 pm

Second that.. and add flame paint.
April 13, 2009 @ 11:05 am
man this is one cartoony car. Huge 18″ wheels on a tiny 1.3litre car? I prefer something more proportional. The old Renault Clio is a good example of balance size wheels with the size of car.
I don’t necessary think that big wheels means COOL looks.
April 13, 2009 @ 11:43 am
this is sick laa kawan²!

Don’t worry..
it’s a Toyota trademark :
“Look so so and underpowered car”.
They should dump 1.6 – 1.8 under the hood.
but it’s ok with 1.3 if the price is below RM30K with perodua badge.
OK.. or RM20K with 850cc engine with p2 badge.
April 13, 2009 @ 1:27 pm
Cantik… 1.3 turbo may suitable for this car
April 13, 2009 @ 2:47 pm
It’s also 5-star Euro NCAP rated. Nice city car.
April 13, 2009 @ 3:58 pm
Look underpowered car? don’t think so.. maybe for this car, they have adjusted the gear ratio
it’s better than smart for 2 because it has extra a seat ^^
April 13, 2009 @ 5:31 pm
I think the bodykits suit the car perfectly. Myvi owners can start opting for this kind of mod too.
April 13, 2009 @ 5:51 pm
Funny, all kind of comments by merely look at the photos!
April 13, 2009 @ 8:09 pm
it will be useless when u drive over speed bumps in malaysia ..
April 13, 2009 @ 8:47 pm
