New York 2015: 2016 Scion IM Debuts
Coming straight from Europe, the 2016 Scion iM made its world debut at the 2015 New York Auto Show.
Power for the hatch comes from a 1.8-liter four with CVVT delivering 137 horses to the front corners via a six-speed manual or CVTi-S CVT with seven-step shifting. Highway fuel economy is 37 mpg, and electronic power steering and four-wheel independent suspension with rear double-wishbone help keep the 17-inch alloys planted on the road.
Other features include: 60/40 fold-down rear seating; Pioneer Display Audio connected-vehicle system; dual-zone automatic AC; heated power-folding side-view mirrors; TRD accessorization; pet-friendly accessories; and six colors from which to choose.
Price of admission for the “mono-spec” Scion iM begins at around $20,000.

Damn, two new choices. Now I'll definitely be stopping by my Scion dealer when the xB comes up for replacement in the new model year.
Who dropped it and then stepped on it?
