You mentioned that our fit guide has the Thule OutWay 3-Bike Rack, # TH56BV, as a confirmed fit for your Mazda 5, but is not listed for your 2016 Scion iM. That basically means that we have not had an opportunity to fit that rack on a 2016 Scion iM like yours and I reached out to Thule and they have not fitted that rack on your vehicle either. It doesn't mean it will or won't fit, however, because your Scion is a hatch back with a small spoiler, there is a good chance that it won't fit. It is possible to find bike trunk mounted bike racks that fit multiple vehicles, but it is rare to find one that will fit both a hatch back and a non-hatchback.
If you give me the year of your Mazda 5, I will double check other options that may fit both, but it sounds like you know your way around our fit guide. I've attached the page link for your 2016 Scion iM confirmed fit trunk mounted bike racks.
If you want a bike rack to fit both vehicles, you may want to consider a hitch mounted option or a roof mounted option. Let me know if I can help with either of those. I will still need the year of your Mazda 5 to help.
