2011 Scion iQ – Click above for high-res image gallery<\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

\nWell, well, well – it looks like Toyota’s iQ<\/a> is coming to the U.S. after all, only it will be (as reported<\/a>) sporting a Scion<\/a> badge. Makes sense. Especially as according to Scion, the world’s smallest four-seater is aimed squarely at a very young demographic. Not just young, but hip and urban, too. In fact, we were told that the iQ represents a “new urbanism,” and is a vehicle for a “progressive buyer.” We can hear Glenn Beck’s aneurysm from here. <\/p>\n

As for details, the “mini-er, smart-er” iQ sports a 1.3-liter engine delivering its not-yet-divulged power through a CVT. Mileage should be in the high 30s, which is reasonable but far from overwhelming for such a small package. The iQ will also ship with stability control, traction control and ABS, as well as ten – count ’em – ten<\/em> airbags, as well as the industry’s first-ever rear window bag. As for now, that’s the whole story. We’ll update you on price, performance specs, and on-sale date when we know more. Press release after the jump<\/a>.<\/p>\n
