smartnhappy Posted December 4, 2024 Share Posted December 4, 2024 Lots of Facebook postings about the 'redesigned' Toyota IQ (no mention of Scion). Reported available as gas powered.... 1.0L turbo churning out 75 hp with a CVT. Some conflicting info plus test drives are popping up. It's similarity to the Smart is unavoidable due to the similarity in sizes. Anyone have thoughts or opinions pro or con. I'm sure Toyota have addressed shortcomings in the previous model. Also see lots of posts on the 2025 Smart. Available as an EV or turbo gas. It looks good. Again, thoughts or comments. No info on availability of either brand in Canada (Smart highly doubtful). Anyone hear otherwise. I love my '05 Smart but it's painful to concider replacement with what's offered in Canada. Maybe I'll just fir handles to the Tridion for the pawl bearers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smartnhappy Posted December 9, 2024 Author Share Posted December 9, 2024 Toyota iQ will not be a North American model. Too bad. Even in IT form, it seems as it might succeed here IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
