Scion IQ Review | The Sleeper Awakes

[@snoman71]

I absolutely love my iQ. Had it for almost 80K miles over the past 4 years or so. Not that great for long road trips but in town it's a blast.

[@7thSpringofthe7thSun]

for long road trip what you dont like about it ?

[@phuckhugh2698]

Toyota should make it as a toyota. Keep making them. Its such a good car. And I'd rather have an IQ over a Yaris.

[@imthelovestamp]

It was branded Toyota in Europe, exact same car

[@PowellMoore]

For some reason I've always liked these, would be sweet with a little turbo on it

[@Hatsushiba100]

I'm Japanese who's in Vancouver. IQ isn't Japanese K car. This is because k car supposed to be under than 0.6 L. However, IQ has 1.3 L. We will recognize this car as normal car haha

[@shaun6437]

Triple turbo 2jz swap right?

[@RussellRobinson77]

Id take this over a current gen smart any day of the week

[@RoadsUntraveled]

Russell Robinson Agreed! haha

[@frankpichardo5299]

4 year old comment? Wow, haha! Yup, the iQ has proven to be better than the Smart. Even today, iQ’s of similar years are more expensive than Smarts, maybe double the price. 2013-2014 Smart, you can find it for $3-4K...iQ’s are $7-10, depending on mileage. Cheaper iQ’s have salvage titles.

[@snoman71]

Nice FAIR review of this car. Have owned one for two years now and put about 45k on it in that time mostly two line rural highway driving. Pros. Cheap to run. Cute. Attention grabber. I get more stares in this than my SLK. Reliable. Relatively nimble for in town/city driving; this thing is a 4 seat go cart with 94hp. Can park anywhere. Can U turn on a two lane road without leaving the roadway or three pointing. 4 seats? Wow! Cons. Road noise is bad, especially on the slightly wider lower profiles I have installed. Strong winds at highway speed will blow you all over. Gas milage over 70 mph drops like a rock. The CVT still sorta rubber bands you even in sport mode. Prone to hydroplaning above 65 mph. No cruise control. Trucks wanna buttf*@k you. :( Still a total winner. When I finally kill this one Ill hunt for another one with as low miles as I can find. Awesome "in town" cars.

[@unityelt]

i like the style of your reviews.

[@RoadsUntraveled]

unityelt Thanks! We had fun with this one. ...Not that we don't have fun driving all of the other cars, but you get the idea :p

[@heiwavt7289]

+Roads Untraveled now imagine it with a bike engine

[@TheRealAlpha2]

Nice review, multiple impressions are good to hear even if they're all favorable, you all had a different take on the things you liked. Also this is the first review I've seen where anyone ever acknowledged the Sport mode in the IQ actually made a difference.

[@imthelovestamp]

Honestly, love my little iQ. Zippy little thing in the city

[@salvadornuno727]

Honestly I miss my little iQ. It’s was a lot of fun to drive, here in LA I could find parking anywhere. I had one for about 5 years. I traded it in for a 19 challenger.

[@AimesX8]

This video was HILARIOUS!!! Keep up the good work, its nice to see you guys mixing it up!!

[@NinaMango789]

Super weird watching an old video from you, y'all have come a long way

[@Cino777]

A car like that is waiting to get new brembo brakes, and rarely needing a new body cage, and simply a single turbocharger, or a supercharger. And don't forget a tuning chip.

[@KevinMinato]

such a nice chill review. loved it

[@WhitewalkerII]

This makes a very special Aston Martin.

[@SimonAZ]

Yes the Aston Martin Cygnet !

[@electrictroy2010]

At 36 the Toyota IQ has the highest City MPG of any nonhybrid car .

[@rickgoddard8632]

you guys drove right past where i live on oxford hill haha

[@CodyPoloway]

"Marcus want something compact and fuel efficient". Proceeds to purchase a grand marquis wagon with a 5.0 in it.

[@RoadsUntraveled]

***** Hey! that's just temporary lol. I have never owned a V8 before so I figured why not now?!

[@CodyPoloway]

+Roads Untraveled It is pretty cool and will sound nice straight piped. Must be a change of pace from driving a mid engine sports car to almost requiring a boat license to drive the wagon.

[@supercooled]

Aren't these cars dangerous due to the short wheel base?

[@jeffguice3334]

@supercooled: Not really anymore dangerous than any other car. I have owned two of these iQ's. They are a lot of fun to drive. Check out their crash test ratings and videos, and reviews from owners who have walked away from bad accidents unharmed. They come with 11 airbags. That being said, the short wheel base does become an issue on rough terrain. These cars hate pot-holes and speed-bumps, and anything too rough will require replacing a wheel hub assembly. They are designed for city driving.

[@dwalker399]

What it needed was a 6 speed manual. Then lets have fun.

[@SimonAZ]

Fun car needs a good sound system ... did you test it? I like the multiple-host format if you disagree now and then.

[@a890136]

Is this video shot in white rock???

[@RoadsUntraveled]

+Ray Cocoa Yepp! Check out the rest of our videos. We shoot all over the lower mainland. I happen to live in White Rock :D - Marcus

[@kenfleming3476]

I like the IQ it’s a brilliant little car 👌👌👌

[@carlitoxb110]

Cutest wash-machine ever

[@riothero313]

I fear I'm heading this way with my DD'S. I went from a supercharged truck, to a nitrous compact, to a turbo subcompact. Maybe I buy one of these and make a screaming 8,600 rpm N/A motor :)

[@BeefHandlesInc]

Weird. Im going from an MR2 to a iQ as well. Maybe its just the natural progression of things lol.

[@mikelana4594]

These reviews better than thatdudeinblue

[@k.E3754]

I prefer this over the smart car

[@rodneyjones1990]

The iQ is not a kei car because it has too much horsepower. LOL. Kei cars are allowed no more than 63HP bruh.

[@bjthedjdutchdude1992]

This car is tougher than Smart cars

[@ZaiGassed]

I drive this car its my baby ima get it decked out❤

[@whyzen2081]

I'm trying to figure out how the hell you got 2 guys in the back. My IQ is a 3-person-1-dog vehicle. The seat behind the driver has literally zero legroom. It's a lot better than a smart car, but it's still a bit crap.

[@prime-eight]

Kei cars are actually smaller. Most kei cars are around 660cc and like half the weight.... super tiny

[@jlentz17]

I'm thinking of buying one from my friend and I can't stop. It's what I need!!

[@JAYBud88]

Did you buy it I want one just for the mpg

[@jlentz17]

Jaycob Baez yeah!! Still driving it! I love it.

[@daivietnguyen7289]

Looked like she was extreme agile on her feet !!! It would be really fun to own one !!!

[@bickleyjonas6145]

How tf is that dude fitting behind the driver's seat. There's zero leg room according to all reviews 😅

[@tyupton1719]

Why the hell does my '13 tC not have a sport mode lol

[@conversejordan]

the Frs is your sport model lol!

[@tyupton1719]

conversejordan Buy me one then lol

[@bigpower7777]

Took 4 guys to do what I could alone in lifting this lightweight car lol

[@cesarlegorreta8732]

Exaggeration at it's max bruhh😂 3:04

[@ck5986]

Engine is a 1.3L

[@turbogti8816]

Lmao go down that hill as fast as you can and hit the brakes hard so you do a front roll

[@MohauChauke-ry2dg]

How much Toyota IQ

[@edikaramuratful]

nice vid. nice car

[@hemenkareamg6957]

I like this car. but I think smart is better especialy in safty

[@SimonAZ]

+Hemen Kareamg It is technically inferior and quite bumpy compared to the IQ.

[@diegoalejandro64]

it is not a kei car. a kei car cant be more that 660cc. that is the Japanese law I know I have a kei car because I live in japan.

[@Marticus518]

these little cars are great if you use them in their right environment, which is cities and such. Take it on to a highway and it's a different story I'd imagine :(

[@ck5986]

Runs great on the highway

[@白洲次郎-r6v]

[@thanatoshelheimer1548]

That bunch certainly aren't nerds.

You should get more subscriber

[@bartvanriel6767]

noooooo!!!! not the mr2 :-(

[@latinotruthseeker8852]

Put a v8 in there!

[@pianofry1138]

Where? The engine would have to be in the cabin.

[@Thatdrii]

@@pianofry1138 aston martin already did it with the cygnet,this cars expensive brother,search aston martin cygnet v8

[@TheAdventureAuto]

I might be interested in a car like this if it got like 80mpg like its looks show it should. Not even 40...are you kidding me?!?!

[@RandomPandaX78]

Is it just me or does Marcus look like Jerry Cantrell?

[@dastinhofman2244]

👍❤iq

[@ebebimik]

i learned nothing. nothing at all.

[@madfiat8932]

Fiat 500 is 500 times more car.

[@aleksandrnestrato]

It's too big.
