Toyota - iQ (2009)
Explore the Toyota iQ – the pocket‑sized marvel that redefines urban driving. This 2009 model, known for its compact design and clever space‑saving features, attracts buyers looking for a car that can weave through traffic and fit into tight parking spots. Whether you’re checking out the Toyota iQ price for a brand‑new make, hunting for a used Toyota iQ price, or wondering about the market value, this guide gives you all the details you need to make an informed decision.
Below is a quick reference of the key specifications that set the 2009 Toyota iQ apart from its peers:
- Engine: 1.0‑liter 3‑cylinder 4‑stroke gasoline, 4‑spark plug system, 55 hp (41 kW) at 6,300 rpm
- Transmission: 4‑speed automatic (E4S) or 5‑speed manual (optional) – both designed for smoother city starts
- Fuel Type: Regular gasoline (87 octane)
- Dimensions:
- Overall length: 3,380 mm
- Overall width: 1,420 mm
- Overall height: 1,480 mm
- Wheelbase: 2,120 mm
- Seating Capacity: 2 passengers (front & back) plus a small spare seat
- Cargo space: 99 liters behind the back seat; expands to 427 liters with seats folded flat
- Typical fuel economy: 19 km/L in urban, 21 km/L on highways (combined 20 km/L)
- Weight: 858 kg (empty), 1,080 kg (gross)
- Top speed: 135 km/h (84 mph)
- Acceleration (0‑100 km/h): 13.5 s
- Warranty options (for new purchases): 3‑year/36,000‑km basic coverage
Given these specs, the Toyota iQ 2009 price has remained relatively stable in the used‑car market, largely because its design features such as the spacious interior and lightweight chassis give it a unique appeal. Price variations arise from build‑year condition, mileage, region, and optional equipment levels.
Depreciation Insight
When you browse Toyota iQ depreciation data, you’ll find that the model behaves predictably compared to other compact cars. The first year typically sees a loss of 15–20% of the vehicle's original value, reflecting the common swift drop off for new cars. After the initial depreciation phase, the remaining decline tapers over the following years. By year three to five, a 2009 Toyota iQ usually loses an additional 25–30% of its market value, meaning it has retained roughly 45–55% of its original worth. These figures assume no major mechanical failures, typical daily use, and moderate mileage (around 80,000 km over 5–6 years).
Comparatively, the iQ holds up better than many inline‑3 small cars because the build quality and the efficiency of its 1.0‑liter engine ensures longer reliability periods. However, it still faces a faster depreciation curve than larger family cars due to its niche role as a pure city car.
Comparison Context
Compared to similar models like the Smart For Two or the Honda Fit (Jazz in Japan), the Toyota iQ offers a slightly larger cargo area and a more robust engine—great for short trips beyond the city limits. For instance:
- Smart For Two: 85 kW times fewer purchase options; less cargo space (75 liters)
- Honda Fit: 120 km/h top speed, 1.2‑liter engine, 160 liters cargo space with seats folded; higher maintenance costs
- 2009 Toyota iQ: 40 kW engine; comfortable for city dwellers; lower daily fuel costs; easier parking
In this comparison, the iQ dominates the “city‑first” segment. For the average commuter spitting out daily gas costs while keeping
