Scion needs to do something exciting. Their sales are slumping off quickly. The new XD and XB series haven't been recieved well and the old XC is growing old. Why did they make the XB larger when everyone liked the old one for it's being small?

Jason:

If at first you don't succeed... repackage the same crap and name it with two different letters. Seriously, why not produce a car based off the old MR-S? Use the old chassis and stick whatever tiny engine in it, or make it hybrid. Poor Mans Tesla!

Tommy Boy:

There's not much to look at, bad for some thing that depends souly on looks.

D9:

The new xB kicks some a$$!! It's still small like the other one but it finally has adequate power under the hood. It truly is a rolling lounge!

I'm looking forward to the new coupe!

Brian:

The new xb sucks it is not better than the old one.It still doesn't have enough power to get up to speed very quickly.They put in a 2.4liter 4 cylinder that is bigger than in my chevy classic and my car can go faster.The only good thing about the new xb is they made it less boxy.

Larry:

I am really excited to see what they have come up with
