3. Launched in 2012 and largely unchanged in its third
year, the Scion iQ is precisely 10 feet long. Its blocky, slab-
sided styling is tougher-looking than the Smart's rounder
lines, and the Scion looks especially good on the
available, handsome, and large 17-inch alloy wheels, which
give it a surprisingly aggressive stance. It's still stubby, but
it's stubby-with-attitude. Inside, the cabin is less minimalist
than the Smart, but it's somewhat let down by grim black
interior materials.
5. The little urban iQ is powered by a 1.3-liter four-cylinder
engine putting out 94 horsepower--one of the least
powerful engines offered in any non-hybrid car. It is paired
not with a manual gearbox, but with a continuously
variable transmission (CVT) for better fuel efficiency. The
combination provides enough oomph to get you around in
cities, but it's no rocket under any circumstance--and on
hills or highways, there's almost no margin for
acceleration. It handles well, and while you'd expect it to
be good in urban cut-and-thrust driving, it rides far better-
-and more confidently--at higher speeds than does the
Smart. Even 80-mph freeway speeds, once you manage to
get up there, don't induce the same nervousness as the
Smart two-seater.

8. For urban residents in crowded cities--New York, yes, and
San Francisco, but also Tokyo, Jakarta, Rio, and other
megacities outside North America--the Scion iQ is a rational
answer to a set of tough constraints. For less crowded, larger
Americans who live in more spread-out suburbs and drive
more miles every day on much cheaper gasoline, other
alternatives may make more sense. The Scion iQ is a splendid
demonstration of Toyota's engineering abilities, and its
minimalism will appeal to some buyers.
The 2014 Scion iQ, in fact, is almost a rolling Rorschach Test
for drivers: It forces them to face the question of whether
bigger is really better. For the majority of U.S. buyers, the
answer is likely to be yes.
