The Scion iM will be a sporty "hot hatch" that will appeal to a wide audience.   Scion has announced an all-new hatchback model called the iM, which is slated for a fall 2015 release date to enter the very competitive “hot hatch” segment. The iM is based on the Toyota Auris, a hatchback that is popular in Europe, but which has not yet come to America. The Scion iM will feature the same tried-and-true 1.8-liter 4-cylinder engine that powers the Toyota Corolla, and will have your choice of two transmissions: continuously variable (CVT) or 6-speed manual. The iM has strong visual cues such as LED daytime running lights, 17-inch alloy wheels, an aero kit, and an overall sleek design.scion im nh saleAside from the choice of transmission, there will be no factory options available; like its sibling the Scion iA, the iM will feature “mono-spec” trim. Mono spec trim means that there will be a generous number of standard options included but that there will not be a higher trim level available from the factory. The MSRP will be $18,460 for the manual transmission and $19,200 for the automatic.scion im specsStandard options for the mono-spec trim include a 7-inch touch screen with Pioneer audio system, 17-inch alloy wheels, chrome tipped exhaust, piano black grille treatment, LED daytime running lights and LED taillights, heated exterior mirrors with LED turn indicators, dual-zone A/C, integrated back-up camera, engine immobilizer, hill-start assist, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. As is tradition for the Scion brand, numerous Scion parts will be available after the sale. So if you want to upgrade your navigation system or add TRD performance accessories, be sure to contact the Parts Department of your local Scion dealer.Caranddriver.com praised the interior design, stating that it is, “clearly derived from the Toyota family and looks great.” Scion has been playing up the fact that the iM will be “pet friendly,” with the options to add a tether, door guards, pet seat barrier, and even a pad to deter your dog from standing on the center console.

Scion iA is Coming to NH

A Scion iA prototype Scion is getting ready to launch the all-new Scion iA, a spirited subcompact the is big on style, and small on price. The iA is Scion’s first-ever sedan, and Scion plans to use it to make a statement! With the iA, Scion intends t o bring premium-level technology to a budget-friendly car. The iA will come standard with a 7-inch multimedia touch screen with voice recognition, backup camera, 6-speaker display audio system, 16-inch alloy wheels, push-button start, chrome tipped exhaust, Bluetooth wireless technology, streaming-app capability, and low-speed per-collision avoidance that uses a laser sensor to warn the driver of impending collisions. The MSRP will be $15,700 for a manual transmission model, and $16,800 for one with an automatic transmission. Scion will offer the iA in what it calls “mono-spec” trim, meaning that the iA will feature a generous number of standard options, but that there will not be a higher trim level or more options available from the factory. Scion does plan, however, to offer additional accessories to be installed after the sale, including a navigation upgrade for the existing 7-inch display. The iA will be powered by a 1.5L 4-cylinder engine, and a 6-speed transmission, available in either manual or automatic. This engine configuration will produce 106 horsepower, 103 lb-ft of torque, and is expected to achieve 42 mpg on the highway. The iA will be available in black (Stealth), dark blue (Abyss), gray (Graphite), red (Pulse), bright blue (Sapphire), silver (Sterling), and white (Frost). Look for the Scion iA at your NH Scion dealership this fall.

The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge is a viral video fundraising campaign that, as of September 8th, 2014, has raised over $111 million for the ALS Association. We are honored to have been a part of this great cause and we hope that you have as much fun watching this video as we had making it!
