Scion iM Performance Overview
Sold for a single model year, the Scion iM’s performance record is compact but clearly defined across 4 verified tests spanning 2016 to 2016. In that brief run, the front-drive hatchback was offered only with a naturally aspirated 2ZR-FAE 1.8-liter four-cylinder rated at 137 hp, so its test data reflects one consistent gasoline configuration rather than multiple performance eras. Even within that narrow scope, published results showed a measurable spread, with 0-60 times ranging from 8.6 seconds for the 2016 Hatchback to 9.9 seconds for the same trim in slower testing conditions.
Quarter-mile performance followed the same pattern. The quickest recorded pass was 16.8 seconds at 84 mph for the 2016 Hatchback, while the overall average landed at 17.1 seconds at 82.6 mph. Across all four tests, the model averaged 9.13 seconds to 60 mph, placing the iM firmly in the economy-hatchback part of the spectrum. Because the nameplate ended after 2016, there was no later engine expansion, hybridization, or electric transition; as tested, it stands as a one-year Scion hatchback with a single 137-hp gasoline powertrain and a best recorded 0-60 of 8.6 seconds.

How we verify Scion iM 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 iM trim, each run is listed separately — weather, tires, surface, rollout, and instrumentation all affect results.
