A fully loaded hatchback with nothing to add
Drive an iM
The Scion iM is a five-seat, front-wheel-drive compact hatchback that came in one well-equipped trim. With a Scion iM car rental on Turo, you get that full spec list for a commute, a city stay, or a weekend away. Start with Scion car rental listings to find one near you.
On Turo, you book your iM from a local vehicle owner and arrange pickup and drop-off that fit your plans. The iM came with a six-speed manual or a CVT automatic, so check the listing before you book.

Comfort features come standard on every iM
Every iM left the factory in a single loaded trim, so you skip the option-sheet guesswork. Dual-zone automatic climate control keeps the front seats comfortable, and the leather-wrapped steering wheel tilts and telescopes to fit you. Heated power-folding mirrors and auto headlights round out the list — handy on frosty mornings and late drives home.
Agile double-wishbone handling
The iM pairs a compact footprint with an independent double-wishbone rear suspension, a setup that helps it stay composed through corners. Each rear wheel moves on its own, so a bump on one side does less to unsettle the other. You feel it on broken pavement and twisty on-ramps alike.
Front-wheel drive and 17-inch alloy wheels come standard. The small footprint makes tight city streets, quick U-turns, and parallel parking less of a chore. That's a real plus in dense neighborhoods where every spot counts.
Touchscreen tech up front
A 7-inch touchscreen anchors the dash and runs the six-speaker Pioneer audio system. Pair your phone over Bluetooth for calls and music, or plug in over USB. Your playlist comes along for every mile.
A rearview camera comes standard, which helps when you're backing out of a tight driveway or parking garage spot. Behind the wheel, a 4.2-inch color multi-information display keeps key driving info in your line of sight. You spend less time hunting through menus and more time watching the road.
Stand out with an iM
The iM is an efficient, commuter-friendly hatchback that's as happy on weekday errands as on weekend getaways. With 32 mpg combined and seats for five, it keeps city trips simple and longer drives easy on fuel. Under the Scion badge, the iM comes from the same automaker behind every Toyota car rental on Turo.
Top iM features
Flexible hatchback cargo
The iM's top features are flexible hatchback cargo, an efficient 1.8-liter powertrain, and sporty, low-slung styling. Here's what sets it apart from other rental cars across the US on Turo.
The iM gives you 20.8 cubic feet of cargo space, plenty for suitcases, groceries, or a weekend's worth of gear. The hatchback design lets you load bulky bags straight in from the back. No wrestling luggage through a narrow trunk opening.
Need more room? Fold the 60/40 split rear seats to fit longer items while a rear passenger still rides along. It's a smart setup for airport runs, a small move across town, or a getaway with friends — pack once and go.
Efficient 1.8-liter powertrain
A 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine makes 137 hp and 126 lb-ft of torque, enough for daily commutes and highway merges. The CVT automatic earns up to 37 mpg highway and 28 mpg city. A 14-gallon tank stretches the time between gas station stops, so you spend more of the trip driving.
Prefer to shift for yourself? The six-speed manual returns 31 mpg combined and puts you fully in control. On CVT models, Sport mode sharpens the response when you want a little extra pep.
Sporty, low-slung styling
The iM sits low and wide, giving it a planted, athletic stance from every angle. A sport body kit comes standard, so the sharp look is part of every iM. You don't have to hunt for a special edition to get it.
LED daytime running lights give the front end a crisp signature, and LED taillights finish the rear. Add the standard 17-inch alloys, and this compact looks ready for more than errands. It's a hatchback that photographs well on any trip.
Top tips and things to know before renting a iM
Get to know your iM
Before you book, check the transmission, learn the tech, and plan your budget. Here's what to know.
Scion sold the iM for the 2016 model year only, so any iM you book is a 2016. It came with either a six-speed manual or a CVT automatic, so check the listing for the transmission — especially if you don't drive stick.

iM driving tips
A few quick checks before you pull away make any iM trip easier.
Confirm the transmission
Check whether your iM has the six-speed manual or the CVT. If it's the manual, make sure every driver is comfortable with a clutch.
Pair your phone over Bluetooth
Connect before you leave so calls, music, and navigation audio play through the six-speaker Pioneer system.
Use the rearview camera
Lean on the standard camera in tight spots like parallel parking, crowded lots, and narrow driveways.
Try Sport mode for merging
On CVT models, switch to Sport mode for a sharper response as you merge onto the highway.
Pack long items with the 60/40 seats
Fold one or both sections of the split rear seat to fit longer gear.
How much does it cost to rent an iM?
The cost to rent an iM on Turo depends on your trip length, the Extras you add, and whether you choose delivery. Book four or more days ahead, and you can take 10% off with a non-refundable trip.
Duration discounts apply to trips of three days, one week, and one month. Trips of 30 days or more carry no trip fee, except in parts of Los Angeles and New York. Planning a longer stay? Explore long-term car rental for monthly options.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
