Scion: good running vehicle for basic everyday needs.
It is a good running car. It has troubles like any older model car would have but with cheap parts it is inexpensive to repair or update. Not a terrible vehicle to own. It has been reliable and very comfortable. You will not have any issues if you are set on getting this car and understand it.

Spacious interior/comfortable.
We were not interested in the scion initially, but once we sat inside, we were sold. The interior is nice and spacious. Comfortable ride in front and back. Drives great. Has Bluetooth and hands free features that are easy to operate. We get good gas mileage.

The tiny box car that triumphed.
The only issue with this car would be the overall clearance. It is very low to the ground, you can easily get stuck in snow. It is super reliable and comfortable. The sound system and space within the car is great! I can fit 5 people in the car and have trunk space. Overall I would recommend this car to anyone looking for a cheaper and fuel efficient vehicle.

Good car and easy to drive.
Except for all the recall notices this car has been very reliable and easy to drive. I like the large truck space and easy access to it. The gas mileage is good and the rear camera feature is nice to have. I do not have any complaints about this car.

The last generation scion xb, great starter car.
Great small compact car with tons of cargo space. Reliable. Fun and stylish. Great pioneer sound system and navigation system. Has plenty of areas to put items such as glove compartment center console, nook above glove compartment and a nook on dash for phone wallet, etc.

Reliable and comfortable with oddly shaped dash.
Overall, a very reliable and comfortable car. Good size trunk and lots of headspace.The back of camera is helpful for seeing behind the car. It is also convenient to have the Bluetooth feature, as well as the hd radio. The arrangement of the dash makes it difficult to mount a hands free phone device.

It can last up to 350,000 miles. With good maintenance and care the car will last multi generations
I like the ability to have good decent gas mileage. That the car was of an affordable price and that it can last for a long time. Doesn't have as much space for a growing family as I wanted

Simple and easy comfort for the whole family!
This car is great for us as a pre-child vehicle! It has plenty of leg room and head space for all passengers and exceptional cargo room for all of your luggage and grocery needs. I greatly enjoy the height of this vehicle as my elderly grandparents can get in and out with ease. This car is also quick to reach appropriate speeds while entering the highway and reacts quickly when the brakes are hit in dire situations. I have driven the scion xb during icy seasons as well and it has enough weight to assist with traction and stability.

Great dependable little vehicle.
It is a good little car. Plenty of room in the back. Trunk is a little small but that is ok. I love taking it on road trips it is great. It is totally reliable and very dependable. With the back seats down it fits my mountain bike perfectly. I love this car.

Reliable, compact, all purpose vehicle.
So far we have had no problem with our vehicle, it is the preferred car for everyone in our family. Great mileage, easy to maneuver and learn to drive with. Only downside is that in a 7 person family, it cannot be used all the time, but if only 5 are home or need to go somewhere it fits everyone comfortably, no matter the size. Surprisingly roomy on the inside, and still has plenty of space for the trunk- we're always doing sports in our family and there's never an issue with equipment fitting or not. Great on road trips to colleges, the beach, etc.

Comfortable and Reliable Car
It has been a reliable car so far. No major problems. The shocks are a bit stiff and so road bumps can be rough. Otherwise the ride is smooth. Comfortable seats. Nice interior.

Scion XB with easy to read digital speedometer
My Scion XB, is reliable and has low maintenance. It has several little cubbies inside for personal items, like mints, garage door remote, cell phone, etc. The speedometer is digital and in the middle of the dash. It makes it very easy to know my exact speed and helps keep my eyes on the road.

Reliable and Toyota scion has good warranty.
Very good on gas, big trunk and navigation. Has miles until empty, all gauges work. Have not had any problems.

Perfect car! With a low price tag!
I love that it's a compact. Looks tiny from the outside but has lots of room on the inside. Has a touch screen control panel, Bluetooth, hands free calling, back up camera. Controls on the steering wheel for music and calls. Odometer is digital. All gauges are more centered in dashboard rather than behind the steering wheel. Dislike that interior lighting is orange, would be better blue and that the standard paint job isn't great. Paint chips easily. Haven't had any mechanical problems. Did have 2 recalls and Toyota was great and got them taken care of.

Scion xb great compact car.

My car is a scion xb it is white, has 4 doors, with light indicators.
Overall the vehicle runs great, has ice cold air, great stereo system, just a big family car. It is great on gas and it has some speed to it. Takes curves like a champ. I have never had a issue out of my car. The access to change the oil and filter is super easy to locate.

It is a gas saving car, you get great mileage. You can also put the back seats.
It is a gas saver! It is also very roomy. I like that it is low and the body is short. It makes parking so easy. Nonetheless the best part of my car is that it never fails on me.
Cathy R

It is very spacious and kid friendly. The best thing about it is that it has good gas mileage.
No problems! I love my car and wouldn't trade it for any other vehicle. I am very satisfied and it has been very dependable.

The most comfortable box you will ever drive!
The comfort level is surprisingly good, for it being a small car a family of four with two car seats fits quite nice. The car gets around 25 miles to the gallon and I haven't spent over $20.00 filling it up. No issues so far mechanically, ac blows cold and the sound system rocks!
Cory R

The Most Underrated, but over performing car I have ever owned.
Large interior, very comfortable, grips the road like a compact car, you are a good distance from the windshield so it feels really roomy inside. The seats in the rear also have a lot of room and even with the seat pushed back the passengers don't feel squished, the performance is there if you need it, I have never felt like I couldn't get enough speed if needed.
Chad W
on September 5, 2020
Just right for my wife and I with enough room for cargo.
I really like how I do not have to climb up or draw out of the seats. It is just the right height for my wife and I. It does not have a ton of cargo space but we have never filled it to the point we ran out of room. We have made one long trip in it and it was comfortable enough for a long road trip.

It's similar to a Camry, just looks different.
I love the way it drives, the open feel and windows so you can see most of the road with few blind spots. It is also very spacious. I hate that it is ugly.
Leah C

It is the little things that count.
The brakes can be a little touchy. It is very helpful that there are different options to see how much gas you have less. My favorite option is seeing how many more miles is left. I also like that there is a small set of windshield wipers on the back.

No complaints, its compact but roomy on the inside. Not too close to the ground. It's really good on gas if you're driving short distances.
Compact car, great on gas and even better for day to day life.

It's like a small SUV without having all wheel or 4 wheel drive.
I wish it got better gas mileage, but like the rom in the back hatch. It also rides nice. Only problem is that there will be no more new ones sold in the US
Kimberly H

Great buy and value for what you get.
The reliability is great, roomy and comfortable with a lot of features included. The helpfulness and knowledge of the salesman was great and the low cost for the quality is outstanding. The maintenance is low and a lot of miles this car can withstand. Economical, unique and great performance.

Handling can be better. It tends to fishtail on wet roads.
It is very reliable, except when there is raining. It is east to fishtail sometimes. It is a little rocky inside the car especially on the freeway. Though the seats are very comfortable. The only cooling or heating ability is only in the front, to the front can have extreme temperatures while the back is always a little too cold or a little too warm. I love it though.

It needs to be taken in for maintenance quite often.
I appreciate the spacious interior and the ability to hold multiple passengers. Not a fan of the small gas tank, as I have to refuel quite often

I just put gas in the car, turn the key and go!! Most reliable car ever.
I really have no problems with this vehicle. It runs great, has lots of power and is great on gas. It does not cost much to fill up the tank either. It is very comfortable for long drives and the sound system is awesome!! I literally just get in turn the key and go.

Scion xb is perfect for a family of 5 and very comfortable!
My vehicle is perfect for my little family. It is not too big or too small just the right size. I have a family of 5 and it rides smooth and very good on gas which is very important. A very reliable car, the trunk has the perfect size. You can also fold all the back seats down if your planning to move or have extra laundry in your car it is very easy to make space.

Awesome car for everyone, I think it's made for younger generation. Compare to other Toyota cars it's a little noisy if you're on the road, but it's very comfortable and the engine is power despite it's a small looking car.
You would love it, but always remember the seats are fabric and you need to clean more often.

That is not a very tall car, so for high street is not very good
It's very comfortable and affordable in gas, also if something it's wrong it will be cheap and easy to find a change

The long forgotten Scion xb!
I love the affordability of my scion xb. It gets great gas mileage, and I enjoy taking it on road trips (mountains, California) the handling is great, and it has a great safety rating! The sound system wasn't that good, so I hate to install one myself... Other than that I love my scion xb. It's too bad Toyota discontinued the scion xb. Really wish they would reconsider on bringing it back! It's a great vehicle for someone on S budget, who can't fork out 25,000 plus for a vehicle

Easy control and maneuvering. Great on gas. It does not block out the sounds.
Great size, great gas mileage, but hate how bumpy the ride is. Also does not keep the road noise out.

Great spacious, dependable vehicle
I enjoy my car. Even though it looks small from the outside, it is very spacious inside. This was a big plus for me because I didn't want to feel crowded while driving. I drive far for work, and have never had to worry about my car making it anywhere. The headlights were extremely dull when I purchased the car and just replaced them.
Teresa C

Compact and dependable car.
Based on funds I got a smaller car. Wish I could had a car that is higher. But overall the car is very good and compact. Very dependable and trustworthy. Haven't had any real problem other than recalls by the manufacturer. Couldn't be any happier with this car even though it wasn't my first choice.

The best car you can get: box car edition!
It has been in a fender bender where the back bumper was bumped and surprisingly it was very easy to replace. I love the comfort of the car how spacious the back seat is really allows me to make my deliveries all in one trip rather than many since I can fit so many boxes. The reliability I have to say is great and I really believe they should bring the xb series back!

Is Toyota, wich means that is going to last for a very long time.
The Performance of the vehicle is extraordinary, the mileage range is just up to 320 miles maximum. One of the special features about this car is how specious in on the inside.

The car looks odd, but it drives very well and will last a long time if taken care of.
I love the purple color, but sometimes get tired of the odd box shape. It drives well though and is more spacious on the inside than previously thought. The dashboard is also quite large, which can be good for safety but annoying when driving.

It's so roomy for such a small car.
The scion xm is a very comfortable car for people with arthritis. It sits lower to the ground for easy access and exit. The rear seats lay down to make extra room for the hatch door for more room for hauling things. It is a 4 door which makes it comfortable for the passengers. There are several cup holders for easy to reach drinks. It also has the back up camera, along with the signal lights on the mirrors on the outside doors. I am very pleased with the purchase of this vehicle as I am now disabled and it us easy peasy to do my own errands,

It has many little spots to put keys, change etc. It is easy to move seats.
Tires are so small the hubcaps fall off easily and need to be replaced. The hands free phone connection does not work very well. There's not much room in the back seat. It does not have heated seats which I miss. Headlights are pretty foggy. The doors are pretty tinny.

Scion XB is a sporty but roomy and affordable car!
It has great pickup and drives smoothly. The navigation and stereo system are great. An adult can fit comfortably in the backseat. Good amount of trunk space, the seats fold down to fit bigger items. Only complaint is that the car seat in the back only fits if the front seat is pushed way up, limiting the leg room for taller people.
