Scion’s 2015 SEMA Show Projects Are Pretty Wild

Scion is offering a preview of its SEMA Show lineup, which consists of custom concepts based on the iM hatchback and iA sedan.

Probably the most striking creation is Eddie Huang’s Scion iA sedan, inspired by classic lowriders which are very popular in Los Angeles.

The car features a metallic yellow paint with root beer accents, with a mural of a “human panda,” which is how Huang refers to himself, painted on the hood. One can’t ignore the wire wheels dipped in gold, along with the unique gold-plated front grille.

The interior is decorated in a similar fashion and includes a chain-link steering wheel, custom swivel front seats and more. It wouldn’t be a lowrider without an air suspension, which is why Eddie Huang fitted the iA with a dual-stage air bag system with independent wheel control which allows for side to side, front to back and 3-wheel motion.

The second Scion iA-based concept was created by Skybound Entertainment and pays tribute to Robert Kirkman’s latest comic book, Outcast. The car’s theme is “demonic possession,” which is why the customized iA can move and operate on its own via pneumatic movements of multiple components and an automated sequence of light and audio effects. The car’s creators say it is able to gyrate, smoke, change colors, and emit eerie sounds.

This bizarre project sports an orange, black and green paint scheme with a demonic spirit graphic directly inspired from the comic book featured on the roof.

Scion will also showcase two Scion iM-based concepts, but only one of them has been unveiled. Created by streetwear brand Crooks & Castles, the project sports a wide body kit and AccuAir suspension. The black exterior contrasts with an all-white leather wrapped rollcage, while the race seats are wrapped in black leather. The car rides on custom white mesh wheels.

The other Scion iM tune was created by streetwear brands illest and we only know that it is inspired by the Japanese VIP world.
