Consumer Reports recently got its hands on the Toyota-based Scion iQ, with the city car receiving a low score in the review. The little Scion only managed to gather 29 points, with Consumer Reports complaining about multiple issues of the car. In fact, this was one of the poorest score the publication awarded in the last few years.
The iQ was mostly criticized for lacking pulling power, soundproofing and a proper level of comfort. However, the magazine did recognise the iQ’s ability to tackle urban areas.
Let’s hear it in their words: “While the iQ’s fuel economy is good within its class, it requires drivers to endure a lot of trade-offs just to save at the pump. Its $16,205 sticker price is no bargain either.”
The magazine itself recognized a pattern of low scored fro small cars within its reviews, explaining that that Scion iQ is just a tad bigger than the Smart ForTwo, which is one of the cars with the lowest scores on its lists.
