The Automotive Science Group (ASG) analyzed thousands of social, environmental and economic data points and placed Scion’s smallest car on first place in its 2014 Best All-Around Performance list.
The group compared 97 mini-compact cars to determine its top five vehicles in the category, with factors including raw materials acquisition, human rights and labor laws where vehicles are assembled, environmental factors, purchase price, operating and fuel costs.
“More and more of today’s buyers consider a company’s values and operations important pieces of their purchase decisions,” said Scion Vice President Doug Murtha. “The iQ demonstrates Scion’s commitment to diverse, fun options that fit with our drivers’ lifestyles and priorities.”
The 2014 Toyota Yaris also made the awards list in the same category.
