Yuck! Bland, bland bland. Although it was only a matter of time till Toyota's small car design contaminated the Scions. I only hope they don't make the next Tc look this bad.

 

[jasinger]

hmm xb w/ tc engine = 300hp turbo xb possibilities haha

 

[f2focus]

I already saw these cars and again toyota makes things happen unlike other brands.

 

[Fordfan05]

don't like either

 

[HotRodKougar]

wow, the xB finally has decent power

it would definitely look sexy with a couple longboards on the top

hmmm.......

Why do you say that?

Why do you say that?

Look at the support that Toyota is giving to their little cars. We could only wish that Ford would back the Focus like that.

I liked the original xB and I like this update. Time (and design) marches forward.

hmmmm
xA, xB, xD?!?!!? i don't even know whats what right now.

Ya seriously cant they pick a real name? Last time I checked an unabridged dictionary was pretty big.

My eyes still burn from the xb pic. I almost looks like they stole the mazda 3 healights and "tried" to fit them on a square body.

First generation I LOVED the xA....

yeah, yeah.....I don't want to hear it.....but I loved the short, tall hatchback look of it. However, I thought the xB was a bit TOO boxy for me.

Second generation, the xB has improved a LOT. It still is boxy, but it's a "rounded boxiness". It looks better.

The xA however looks a LOT like the xB. At first I thought they were the same vehicle in that shot. I'm not liking the look of the xA anymore as it's no longer angular, but boxier, just like the xB WAS.....

 

[focaljet-1]

It's not the xA, that car has been retired. The xD is meant to be an entirely new B-Segment Scion.

 

[Ataru]

Oh.......well then, I'll miss the xA. :lol:

The xB and xD look too much alike.

See I was a huge Scion fan when the xA and xB were being discussed in the early stages, and my love for them continued up until their launches. I was actually the first person in this area to drive a 5-speed xA and nearly bought one. My biggest gripe with it though was a lack of power, though the aftermarket was already there and that was a really cool thing for me. Then life changed a bit and I ended up keeping my ZX3 to save money. That being said, what made the xB truly an icon has now been killed by a redesign, even though Scion/Toyota initially said that the xA and xB both were too iconic to the B-segment to facelift and that they would rather kill off both models to bring out two new replacements. WTF Scion? I understand that the xA was the least popular of the three cars, but to keep the xB name with a car that looks like a confused hodgepodge of a box and a Yaris along with another car that looks too much like it, I don't like this move :thumbdown

The new xB is actually VERY close to the t2B concept that was said to foreshadow the new one. So, it really shouldn't be much of a surprise to anyone.

 

[pitchblack23]

The xD has a much more "mature" look than the xA did, I think. I like it. XD

The xB is not boxy enough.

 

[focaljet-1]

I was reading the comments by Scion enthusiasts on both cars over at ScionLife and they are pretty polarized. Running about 50/50 or so either loving or hating.

 

[goldsex]

the xD Will have the 1.8l Corolla engine, so it won't dissapoint as much as the timmid 1.5l that the xA currently has.

 

[focaljet-1]

Aftermarket support for both, but especially the xB will be very good. Turbo kits are most certainly already being fabbed up in some shops.
