Scion Canada, looking to bring real innovation in design to the urban subcompact market in 2011, will be launching the Scion iQ. Like all Scions, the fun to drive iQ will be very well equipped with loads of standard equipment, leading safety features, and more - the ultimate urban people mover.

The launch of the Scion iQ adds to an already strong line up for a new brand, which will bring a new generation of young Canadians into the Toyota Family.
