The iM is completely assembled in Japan. 100% made in Japan. The FRS is only 93% made in Japan.
Scion iM -- built in UK or Japan?
2
It appears that Scion is bringing the second-generation Toyota Auris to the U.S. and Canada as the Scion iM. Currently, the Auris is manufactured in the UK (Burnaston, Derbyshire) and Japan (Toyota City).
Where will our iMs be made?
For 2015, U.S. Yaris models will not arrive from France, rather than Japan. With Europe's car market still reporting weak sales, some automakers, like Fiat, are using under-utilized European factories for export. For this reason, I wager out Auris / Scion iM will be imported from the UK.
