Toyota iQ Review

Used Value5 out of 5

Small Toyotas resist depreciation exceptionally well and it would be foolish to expect nothing less from the iQ.

Even with its lofty pricing we predict the iQ will hold onto more of its value than the larger Aygo will three years down the line. Why? Well first off Toyota will sell a third less iQs beside Aygos, meaning they will be in short supply on the used market.

Secondly, if the iQ succeeds in becoming the hottest small car on the market, it will be close as you can come to an automotive blue chip investment.
