This car is easy to drive, it has a comfortable cabin, and it is great on gas. We have been on many trips with this car and it was plenty roomy for all our gear. The passenger seats in the back are spacious enough for tall people., with plenty of head and leg room.

The scion I am and how it is a good car.
The scion I am is a great reliable and affordable vehicle with great gas mileage. 4 years in and I still have not had a single issue with this vehicle whatsoever. In fact the only problem that I have with it are the tires are quite expensive and the vehicle is so low to the ground that even a bump can damage the vehicle.

The crazy color and lots of storage room.
I like the size of it. It has a lot of room in the hatchback. I hate the color of it and it uses a lot of gas.

It is black, drives really nice
It works really well for me and I like the way it rides. It is nice to drive and it feels nice. Even though scion does not really make cars anymore and is not much in business I do really like their cars and I really love this car a lot. I would recommend to anyone that I know to get one of these but it will probably have to be used

Great first car for your teen
It is a great car for teens as a first car. Does well on gas. Can drive in Sport mode and switch to manual. Bluetooth capable and touch screen monitor to control audio and media settings. Overhead compartment for sunglasses. Wish it had a sunroof to complete the look.

Fun to drive hard to see out the back.
Underneath all the bells and whistles and perks is a Toyota. Super reliable fun to drive has a booming stereo system for a stock radio. Gas mileage is fantastic. I think my only complaint is the lack of view from the rear view window. It is hard to see out the back.

It is very sporty and cute.
My scion drives like a practical car, but still has that sport power! It does not feel cheap or light, even though it is compact. Gas mileage is awesome on it, and the eco feature really helps us save! Toyota is a great brand, and lasts for a long time. I have only got 50, 000 miles on my car, and it still feels like new.

It gets good gas mileage and is a lot more spacious than it appears.
I love the space, including the trunk. I love how small it is so that it's easy to park. It's also super cute and super modern.

Budget friendly, great gas mileage, and very roomy compact car!
I love the gas mileage I get. It is around 32 mpg in town, and on long trips, even more than that. That being said, I wish I had a little more power in the motor. I don't like pulling out into fast traffic because it takes a little bit to get up to speed. The car is very roomy, enough for two comfortably in the back. I like to put the back seat down and use that for moving things.

I like my Saturn but you didn't have an option for me to pick that.

Sporty but sturdy hatchback.
I have not had any issues with my scion I am and I love driving it. I take to the Toyota dealer where I leased it and the service department is great. The car is medium sized and very sturdy so I feel safe on highways. And it also runs very economically and rides very smoothly.

Great reliable car for the price.
It is a sleek and comfortable ride. Very reliable with great gas mileage. If you seek a well-equipped, fun-to-drive, value-intensive 5-door hatchback in a versatile-yet-stylish package, the 2016 scion I am comes highly recommended. My only complaint is I wish the car had more power.

Good little car, cheap, but do not expect a lot of power.
Great mileage, compact, easy to drive, and reliable. The issues include ac vent issues where they work intermittently and no pickup on the accelerator. The pickup is a big issue when trying to accelerate to Cross Lanes in traffic and it becomes dangerous.
Maria A
on October 28, 2020
Great car! Very small issues.
Comfortable and reliable. The car does have a bit of a drag, when driving the car pulls to the right. The dashboard menu is also a bit difficult to navigate but once you get the hang of it is easier to understand. The Bluetooth display is also a bit finicky. When I receive calls from one person it shows the image of another, and sometimes the same occurs when playing songs over Bluetooth rather than showing the face of an artist it’ll pull the wrong image.

Good car for road trips, reliable and comfortable enough
It is a great car to get you places. My partner and I regularly make trips out to the Midwest and we have been there and back many times without a problem. It is not a spectacular ride, but in the way that it is not a bad ride either. Definitely comfortable for several 8 hour drives. There was a recall on the software recently but Toyota fixed that right up for us.

The way it handles,,
People complain about power. Learn to drive a stick. The 6 speed version is much more nimble than the cvt. I knew how much power it had the day I test drove and purchased it. This is the only car I've ever purchased new and I absolutely love it. Nothing more fun than hitting a right curve while in 3rd and the tires screaming. This thing loves a curvy road. Absolutely 0 problems

on October 20, 2020
It has a great sound system, amazing color, awesome storage and it is very fast.
I actually really love my vehicle. I wish scion was still making cars but I know Toyota owned scion so they just make scion under Toyota now. I do wish my vehicle had a larger gas tank but this size tank is expected with this kind of car anyways so it is not a big deal.

Scion Im review from mom point of view
No power, being a 4 cylinder, however does have a power booster/sport mode that does add a bit more power. Small backseat for car seat, growing child and grown adults to sit comfortably. Cup holders are not big enough for two drinks to fit next to each other.
Katherine A
on September 28, 2020
Sport mode is a great tool sometimes.
The seats are a bit uncomfortable kind of like they wanted to make race car seats. Back up camera is amazing. There is no button inside to open the trunk. Back seats are real stiff. Bluetooth connectivity takes so long compared to other cars. Side mirrors do not have the defrosting option.
Sue R

My comfortable, reliable scion.
I really like my scion. I like a small car. It drives well and looks nice. I like the color red and I have always liked hatchbacks. It has plenty of get up and go for me. I have not had any problems at all with the vehicle. It is very reliable and comfortable.

Small outside but spacious inside!
Our Scion IiM is our comfort car for a family of three. My husband is the one driving it but I it's really comfortable even during long drives. It has a spacious leg room both in front seats and in the back, as well as the trunk space. We were even able to fit a closet we bought in Ikea, but it's not yet assembled that time.

This car was only made for one year before becoming the Toyota Corolla Im
I love my scion Im. It has tons of space in the back of you lay the seats down and averages over 30 miles per gallon. I haven't had any issues with the car and it is currently at 62,000 miles. I drive a two hour round trip commute daily and love the way it rides on the interstate

Leather interior, wonderful sound system.
Great car, great gas mileage, but doesn't have that good of handling, has enough space and travels nicely, wonderful family car, seats 5, has a sports mode which helps out with getting on big hwys, very nice leather interior, wonderful sound system with touch screen radio, speakers are all put in the right places for that right amount of sound.

I always say it looks like a mini Prius.
I like the look of car overall. But it is lacking in speed I’d say. When I want to accelerate quickly I have to put car into power mode. Also it is a bit small on inside. Which works for myself but when I have company in car it's a little snug and is not to comfortable.
Mariana G
on July 26, 2020
Amazing car, lots of space and legroom.
This car is extremely reliable. Got this car as my first car and I would not have changed it for anything. Does not require too much gas, and does not waste it rapidly. One thing I love about this car is the sport mode. Casually clicking sport mode while on long trips to get that extra little zoom. The size is also perfect. It may look small, but the inside fits 4 people comfortably with lots of leg space.
Kris H

Very sleek, small but roomy ride.
My car is very comfortable and smooth to drive. The hands free options work very well. Although a very small car it feels very roomy. I love the cool sleek design. The touch screen is very easy to use and connects to my Bluetooth phone very easily as well.

It is a great little car for me and the dogs.
The scion is a great little car and I am very sad that it is no longer being manufactured. It is easy to drive and I love it. The interior cargo space is surprisingly roomy-I can fit three German shepherd comfortably inside. There is even room for me and all of the dog hair.

My bright blue little shark.
Honestly I haven't had a single problem with my car yet. I have had it for almost 2 years it gets me everywhere I need to go and never gives me a problem. Also like that it a little sporty and will get up and go when you need it to. I highly recommend this car honestly my first ace and I do not regret it.

For a four cylinder it is pretty fast and it has sport mode.
I had very good gas mileage on average I get 32.0-33.0 miles per gallon. I have cloth seats and they are comfortable. The feature I have is that the radio is touchscreen and I can control it from my steering wheel, and I can read my car messages from the dash and control that from the steering wheel as well.

If you need just a car, it's a good bang for your buck.
It's a lease and I really can't complain about anything. It's a cool looking car but it's just too slow. I am glad I leased the car and not purchased.

My vehicle is about at 9/10, it is fast which is nice, and it is reliable.
No problems so far. Love the cars performance like how comfy it is, the backup camera, the radio. It is a good reliable car to be in especially with a kid. It is good on gas, and has some storage space, I love the details on my car and the car skirt. And it is made like a sports car so it is fast.
Beatrice B

Comfort and gas efficient.
Car is very comfortable and reliable. Does not consume much gas unless it's on sports mode. Very practical for parking. Perfect for my needs. Spacious and very accommodating. Hatchback model. Requires maintenance often. Never had issues. On sports mode very fast if need be.. Message screen very informative.
Daniel B

Best gas mileage I've ever had.
Pretty decent car, great for long road trips, the gas economy is amazing. Handles well and has had no problems. The model itself is a timing chain based engine, which means with diligent routine maintenance it'll last for a long time. Handles extremely well in the snow as well.

Fuel efficient and roomy!
This is a very roomy, fuel efficient subcompact hatchback. It has room for five adults, as well as a decent amount of room for bags in the hatch area. It is very good on gas. On long trips, I have averaged over 36 mpg going up and down the sierra mountains. It is easy to park with the back-up camera, and makes it easy to parallel park as well. It has all the wanted amenities without having to pay extra due to the 'one-price' theory that scion had.
Ariel G
on November 19, 2019
The vehicle is white. 4 doors. Not leather interior. All black.
The screen goes blank on the hottest or coldest days. The seating is very comfortable. Can't fit big items. The reliability of getting here and there is absolutely the best. Stereo sounds are great. I keep the base low to keep the life of the speakers longer.

A small, sporty, and sleek ride.
Nice vehicle but small. Not a lot of legroom in the front or back. Otherwise, it has a nice interior, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, beautiful blue dashboard lights, good infotainment system, and a sporty exterior. I haven't had any issues with reliability, but as for performance, it is sluggish in eco mode. However, sport mode is has a nice pep and I use it to merge onto the highway.
Kevin M

Amazing affordable car for your average commuter.
Has the Toyota corolla engine and reliability. Love the car. Very comfortable seats and overall ride. Also really good sound. The side mirrors can also come in when parked to help prevent them from getting hit. My only wish is that it had a little more acceleration.

I love my scion I am because of the hatch back.
I love my scion I am. It is super convenient with the hatchback and it is comfortable. It is fun to drive with the 'sport' mode, but I also love that it lets me know when I am being environmentally savvy with the 'eco' light. My minor complaints: it can be noisy, the Bluetooth stereo does not always work very well, and it is small in the back seat.

My spring green scion is the best car I have ever purchased!
My Toyota scion is the best vehicle I have ever purchased! It is a 2016 sleek bodied hatchback. It is spring green so it really stands out. It rides very smooth and the interior is well made, nothing has ever torn up in my car. It gets great gas mileage, $20 gets me a full tank. I have never had any problems at all with this car, I have even driven it halfway across the country at least twice, never with any problems.
Lauren M

Good little car. Runs and drives smoothly.
I love my scion I am, it is a great little car, runs well, drives smoothly. I dislike how low the undercarriage is. I have to be extra careful on speed bumps. And I wish the car had on screen navigation. The seats are comfortable. I love the backup camera.
Brian C

Bluetooth, USB or AUX jack. Good sound system. Hatchback gate. Backup camera.
I like my scion I am. The car has great gas mileage and plenty of room for me, my wife, and occasionally the dogs. I like the features it has. Bluetooth stereo, backup camera, automatic windows and mirrors. It is a comfortable ride. We have driven it on long, 8 hour drives back to visit my family. My only issue with the car is the low horsepower. In all honesty, I need to do more research before buying cars. If I would have known about the low horsepower, I would not have gotten the car. I wanted this car to last me a really long time, well past the 6 year loan I have to pay off for it, but I will be using it as soon as I can for a down payment on a different car.
Bryanna L

People should know that it wasn't really inexpensive and it still is a good car. I've had it for 2 years and really appreciate it.
My car has started to breakdown more and more, it sucks. I've tried going to mechanics but they work on something and then leave it alone.

Scion Im review. Great car!
My Scion I am is a very reliable car as it is made by Toyota. It is very comfortable and has some luxuries such as a backup camera and Bluetooth audio. The only thing I dislike about my car is that it is low to the ground but some people like that. It was on the more inexpensive side which was a plus as well.
Jorge R

Scion iM is an excellent sport car.
Scion I am is a great car. The audio system from the vehicle is impeccable. It look like sport. I really do not recommend to use the economy system. You are able to disable this feature in the settings of the vehicle. I was noticing my car isn't accelerating like the way it should be. After I disabled it, the problem was gone. But beside that, I love my car.

The gas mileage is fantastic. 47 miles to the gallon.
My beautifully green scion I am is wonderful. It has FM and am radio plus Bluetooth compatible. Once you've connected your phone it will automatically reconnect once you turn on your car. It makes it almost impossible to forget my phone. I love listening to my favorite podcasts during my commute. This scion has fantastic gas mileage and the drive is so smooth. I drive 80 miles to and from work without a single problem. The interior is a nice black and the seats are so comfortable. Like sitting on a cloud. 2 years later and I am still in love with her. Such a reliable car.

Solid car and fun to drive. Easy to do your own maintenance at home.
I love that car, sporty, reliable, small and fun. Excellent mpg on the city and highway. The car feel so great on the road and fun when pushed to the limit. The only negative about this car is the lack of space on the rear seat and small fuel tank. Otherwise the car is pretty solid and I love the sleek and good looking car.

It drives smooth but leg room is limited for back seat passengers. I love how it saves on gas and I can park very easy. The head room is also limited but it still is a fun car to drive.
Alex L

An affordable and reliable vehicle for your daily commute.
There is no problem with the vehicle as far as I know. It is very gas saving. The exterior looks pretty sporty. Although the car is small but it is spacey inside. Beside the fact it is affordable, it is also very reliable. I like it very much overall. Hatchback is cool too. Easy to carry bulky things.

Trouble Free 2016 Scion IM
I have had not problems with the car, it is underpowered and unless you put it in sport mode it does not have much pick up for stopped.
