Scion iA Performance Overview
Sold for a single model year, the Scion iA occupies a narrow place in the brand’s performance record, with 4 verified tests spanning 2016 to 2016. Across that brief run, every independently tested example was a naturally aspirated gasoline sedan powered by a 106-hp four-cylinder, so the story is less about generational change than about the consistency of one configuration. The quickest recorded run came from the 2016 Sedan at 8.9 seconds to 60 mph, establishing the model’s benchmark at launch, while the full observed range extended to 9.3 seconds.
Quarter-mile performance followed the same pattern. The fastest pass was a 16.8-second run at 81.9 mph by the 2016 Sedan, while the overall average settled at 17.0 seconds and 82.2 mph across the four tests. Other recorded 0-60 results for the 2016 Sedan clustered closely, including 9.0 seconds and 9.1 seconds, reinforcing how tightly grouped the iA’s real-world acceleration was. With no later production years, no engine changes, and no hybrid or electric variants, the iA stands today as a one-year entry defined by uniform gasoline performance and a current best of 8.9 seconds to 60 mph.

How we verify Scion iA performance data
We include only independently published road-test results from automotive publications. Manufacturer-claimed 0–60 times are excluded unless clearly labeled. When multiple publications test the same Scion iA trim, each run is listed separately — weather, tires, surface, rollout, and instrumentation all affect results.
