Make your drives fun again with the brand-new 2017 Toyota Corolla iM! Formerly known as the Scion iM, the five-door compact sedan adds more versatility and style to the already ultra-popular Corolla lineup.

Aside from its roomy cabin, this hot hatch comes well-equipped with standard features that are more commonly found in high-end luxury cars. To kick things off, it comes with a six-speaker Pioneer audio system, which will play from a variety of sources, including iPods. Drivers can navigate it through the car’s 7-inch touchscreen that also comes with HD Radio and Aha. In addition, there’s a leather-wrapped steering wheel that features easy-to-use switches for audio and hands-free calling.

State-of-the-art standard features continue with the iM’s dual-zone automatic A/C control and color-keyed heated power-folding mirrors that are able to melt frost in a hurry.

Adding to the vehicle’s outside visual pop is an assortment of vibrant color schemes for buyers to choose from: Blizzard Pearl, Classic Silver Metallic, Black Sand Pearl, Barcelona Red Metallic, Spring Green Metallic and Electric Storm Blue. Sharp-eyed headlights and a piano black grille treatment can also be found on every iM model.

A 1.8-liter four-cylinder powerplant can be found underneath the hood. It makes 137 horsepower and is responsible for the car’s punchy acceleration. A 6-speed stick shift comes standard, however, there’s also an available automatic transmission. Both configurations come with Hill Start Assist, which helps prevent roll-back when moving forward from a fixed position on an incline. For better handling around curves and on bumps, a double-wishbone rear suspension is matted to the car’s sophisticated chassis.

Look for this sweet ride to hit our store sometime this fall. In the meantime, check out our online selection of brand-new 2016 Scion iM models. When you’re done, stop by for a test drive!
