Toyota may have a new Scion i model in mind, as the automaker has filed a trademark for the iR nameplate.
The trademark filing to protect the name occurred April 23, reports AutoGuide. Toyota intends to use the name for a model with four or more occupants to be sold in Canada, Puerto Rico and the United States.
As for what the iR could be, Scion chief Doug Murtha stated his brand’s newest addition – after the Mazda2-based iA and Toyota Auris-based iM – wouldn’t be a crossover, but a vehicle already on the global market as a Toyota, such as the Aygo city car also on sale as the Citroën C1 and Peugeot 108.
