I love everything about the scion tc. For a younger buyer, it was a sporty choice. The car drives nicely and the car has basic elements to it that fit all my needs. The trunk space is large for a smaller car, so the hatchback is great for storing and transporting items. It is easy for passengers to sit in the back seats even though it is a 2-door car.

Scion tc great car, great sound system.
The scion tc is a 2 door coupe with a great standard sound system. It drives smooth. I will say that not having an engine heat gauge is annoying it only tells you if it's cold. It has cloth seats which are great for the AZ heat because leather just sticks.

Scion tc: a super reliable car.
Bought my car used (one previous owner) and so far I have had no major issues with it. I keep up with my regular maintenance, and so far it runs great, and is very reliable. Inside is very nice, both the front and back seats are very roomy, and there is a lot of storage space in the trunk. You can even flip down the back seats, which doubles the trunk space. I have fit a lot of stuff in there! My only real complaint is that there are no defrosters on the side view mirrors, so in the winter when they are covered in rain/dew/frost, it can be difficult to see out of them if you forget to wipe them clean.

Other's should know that it is safe to drive.
The car is very spacious and I like that. The car also drives pretty smoothly. Lastly the car is not very large.

Highlights of owning a 2014 scion tc (base), 2 door coupe.
Problems: none - at 141k miles. Simply keep it well maintained (oil change, tune up when needed and new tires, a fluid flush(s)). I maintain my vehicle well, and it operates great. Performance is great for me - it gives me speed when needed, but I also get to save at the gas pump. Reliability is very important to me and my family. Getting around sf, driving up the coast or even visiting Oregon in this car is great because of the reliability. Note: please read operation's manual for driving in snow/sleet weather conditions, as they may be very different than highway miles in the bay area/Silicon Valley. Comfort is a 7 out of 10. The only reason why this is not higher for me is because I have cloth seats, not leather. Plus the seats are not heated (like my other vehicle). The foam in my seat is contoured to the body well, for short and tall torso drivers. Can easily fit for lots of drivers. Features: I love Bluetooth, my steering wheel feels very sturdy, tire options, navigation screen, rear tints, seats and of course the hatch back. The hatchback makes it possible for beach options, storing a baby stroller for walks, taking my dogs to the dog park, and zipping away to Napa for a weekend getaway.

My vehicle is a comfortable and reliable little car.
My scion tc is a great daily car. The scion comes with a hatchback and it is a very comfortable to drive in. The car is very reliable and does not have many problems in my opinion. The only problems that I'd say the car has is that it is gotten too small for me, but other than that there are no problems.

Rare scion tc limited edition coat of paint.
The 10-series is the type of vehicle we currently have. It is a 2 door with a rare paint of coat that only a select few cars have. It is limited edition and I believe there wasn't many produced. It rides smoothly and has actually yet to break down. The seats are incredibly comfy and it is very spacious.
Daniel C
on February 24, 2021
Sleek, comfy, and practical.
Fun ride with decent power. The monogram trim has heated seats and Bose stereo system, which really ups the experience overall. Good value, reliability, and fun to drive. Occasionally struggles in mountainous terrains and steeper grades, but handles just find after getting up to speed. Driven cross country multiple times with no issues. Look and style are great, with inspiration from some of Toyota's sportier looks, like the angled headlights. I am a fan of the tail lights and subtle spoiler. Low key, but slick.

The 2014 Scion tic is a practical and sporty, fun to own vehicle.
I have never had a problem with my 2014 Scion tic. It runs great all year, it is not even bad in the snow. The inside is roomy and comfortable for road trip. If you are looking for a sporty and fast car, this is the one for you. I have never owned anything as fun as this car!
William P
on February 15, 2021
My car is mostly stock at the current moment. Even with It's stock parts it still looks appealing.
Love the way it looks on the outside. Has a sporty look to it that I enjoy very much. I Don't like the fact that It's not as good with mileage compared to a Toyota Corolla.
Beth G
on February 6, 2021
It is a manual and is super sleek and fun to drive.
It is super reliable and sleek. I have never had an issue with her. She is reliable in winter and the kids love it. It is a little difficult to store things in the trunk but overall is a great ride. I have a 6 speed manual which makes it even more fun to drive and really get a feel for the car.

Scion: Sufficient and Affordable
It is Very Self sufficient. It has Great gas mileage. There is Little to no maintenance is required. Perfect size and I love the color of it. ( cement matte gray ) it is very affordable I've had the car for 5 years I recommend this car to everyone
Ruben M

2014 scion tc is amazing.
Drives great, very responsive in steering and braking. Fuel efficiency is great. It is comfortable and feels great to drive. As far as reliability, it is been amazing. Six years driving, back and forth from the south to the west and not a problem. Overall performance is great.
Kacey B
on December 31, 2020
Cheap and reliable beauty.
There’s no trunk button. It is a very smooth ride. I think the back window is kind of hard to see out of. Other than that no problems. I get great gas mileage it is very nice looking car. I only drive it a short distance to and from work. The interior is kind of plain though, but since the car was pretty cheap I expected that.
Rick g

Scions are poorly made vehicles.
It is not fuel efficient as advertised. It has been in the shop more times than I can count. It is made of plastic.
Taylor W
on November 25, 2020
The 10 series edition that I have, has glowing badges.
I am about to hit 100k miles and I have had no issues. Easy to drive. The Bluetooth capabilities make the driving experience more enjoyable. The double sunroof is nice for passengers who maybe do not want to sunbathe with me. The climate control features are not overwhelmed with buttons. Performance wise the car has some get up and go but nothing crazy. You will definitely pass slow drivers quickly but this is by no means a sports car.
Tyler J
on November 24, 2020
No issues, just need a bigger car.
I am just ready for a bigger car. The car itself has no issues. I love the stereo and how it drives, just need more size. Fuel economy is pretty solid and I haven’t had to get any repairs done besides the usual oil change. Windows are very see through but a quick tint will solve that. Overall it is a solid car.
Anthony M
on November 16, 2020
It is a reliable and yet just sporty enough vehicle.
Have had for a few years now. I honestly love it. I have the 6 speed manual and haven't had a single major issue since purchasing the vehicle. With just routine maintenance it seems to be in it for the long haul. I am told the latch for the trunk does get a bit finicky but can be replaced with little hassle.
Olivia G
on November 15, 2020
Best car on gas not too small not too big just the right size I love it.
Best car on gas mileage and it is a good size not too big and not too small. Love the way the inside looks like that I can put one side of the seat in the back down and have the other side up. Good enough space in the trunk. Always wanted a scion tc and my husband got me one I say the best is it fills up with $22 and it is full like who does not want a car that fills up with $20 that is a great buy if you ask me.
Sasha G
on November 8, 2020
I really like that hatchback.
It is a great fuel efficient vehicle. It handles well. It is not a good vehicle for an infant, as I have found it is sometimes difficult to get in and out of a coupe with a car seat. There is quite a bit of space in the back, but is not sufficient for going on vacation and packing large loads.
Amanda B
on October 26, 2020
My perfect fit does not have any problem.
It was love at first sight and drive her name is Elektra not red like the characters costume.. Electric blue. There’s brake problems I never received the recall email it needs to be serviced. I love the drive I love my car but the mpg has been going down. I got it at 16k miles and it currently has 37k.
Jeffery L
on October 13, 2020
Amazingly comfortable and reliable vehicle.
It's very reliable. The comfort of the back seat is very nice for a coupe. It delivers great performance if your looking for a vehicle to mod out with parts. Perfect and fast daily and I love the hatchback of the car. Nothing's better than having the sporty look of an FRS and have the reliability of a Camry with the Camry engine.
Walter T
on October 12, 2020
2014 scion tc - great vehicle to own.
Excellent and reliable vehicle, have had this vehicle for about 5 years, and no issues, only had to change the brake pads and tires so far. Car is comfortable, and fold down seats make it great for storage / hauling items. Car is spacious even in the back seats for passengers. Great look, great car all around.
Melissa f

My car tends to use gas up very quickly. Gas mileage is not great
I love how small it is and how fast my car is. I also love the sunroof. The dislikes would be the two door because not a lot of people like coming in and out of my car
Kevin C

Great reliable vehicle, drives great, looks great, is great.
As a first time driver of a Scion, I was a little nervous, but I love this car. It drives smoothly, it is fast, safe, and reliable. I love the features as well. I really enjoy riding with the sunroof open listening to music. The touch screen radio is a really nice feature as well. Bottom line, great reliable vehicle.

The Roof Is All Glass, and it is a 6-speed manual.
I haven't really had any problems with the car. It performs to my expectations, I think it is comfortable.
Christina D
on August 10, 2020
Get a manual so you can do performance upgrades. As a daily driver, it's amazing!
The problems I have with my vehicle is that there are just weird quirks about it. Toyota has not been very helpful in the upkeep. Its "slower" than your typical sports car but faster than a Corolla. It's super comfy as I take long road trips and it has been very reliable.
Alexx C
on August 7, 2020
I love the lightning detail in the interior and exterior.
The only issue with the 2014 scion tc is that the blind spot is terrible and that the gas mileage is not terrible, but it also is not that great. It is about 271-300 miles before you have to fill up again, so if you are always having to run errands, then this vehicle is not for you.
Tamara I
on July 12, 2020
Hip and sporty smooth driving car.
At this point in time, I have not had any major issues with my vehicle. It drives well, and it is comfortable to sit in. It is perfect for driving around town or on long trips. It looks nice, has a sporty exterior and feels young and hip. I couldn't ask for a better car to own for the price.
Richard W

It has a sunroof and is front wheel drive.
Its a 2 door hatchback scion tc its year is 2014. It has a 4 cylinder engine and automatic transmission. It has anti lock disc brake all around. It gets great gas mileage and has pretty good pick up power. I've had it for like three years and ill I had to do is regular maintenance on it. It rides pretty smooth and is very dependable.
Corey C
on June 13, 2020
2014 scion tc is a fun car to drive.
This vehicle is amazing. It looks stunning and is fun to drive. The only issue so far is the locking mechanism on the passenger door has gone out which is a typical problem for scions/Toyotas but does not affect the car's ability to drive, just the ease of operation.
Leah P
on May 27, 2020
My vehicle is a silver color with a hint of blue in the right lighting.
My vehicle is reliable, and seats comfortably. I feel safe when I drive it anywhere I go. I think it has plenty of room in the backseat for a coupe car. It drives well and provides and smooth ride on the road. With most coupe cars you feel enclosed but with the Scion tc 10 series coupe you do not notice you are in a smaller car. It feels like you are riding in a sedan.
Tamara I
on May 24, 2020
Great car with excellent comfort.
I have not yet had any issues with my current vehicle whatsoever. The gas mileage is actually pretty good, and the car is very comfortable for the type it is, and gorgeous. This is by far my favorite car that I have owned up to this date in time. It is sad they are no longer made.
Anna R
on May 6, 2020
Sporty but not luxurious.
This is a basic car with a few bells and whistles. It is supposed to look sporty, so it has a spoiler, sunroof, and bright red. The most up to date feature the car has is touch screen with no navigation (scion wanted to charge $1000 for navigation). The car has no heated seats or mirrors. The average gas mileage is 28. The back seats fold all the way down and can recline.
Natalie J
on April 27, 2020
This vehicle is affordable with a luxury sporty feel.
This car is very dependable and reliable. It gets great gas mileage on the freeway and in town. It is such a comfortable vehicle to drive with a sporty feel. It accelerated quickly and efficiently. It came with a very nice sound system that I enjoy listening to my music with. It has a sunroof. Although it is a two door car, it is quite spacious. The back has fold down capable seats and a very deep trunk space.
Natalie G
on April 25, 2020
The right investment for you.
This is by far least difficult to maintain. Keep up with oil changes, alignment, tire rotation and it will run like a charm. Have never experienced any engine/transmission issues. Stability and traction are top notch on this vehicle. Gas is efficient. And lastly is a great looking car.
Crystal B
on April 10, 2020
It's a stylish hip ride..Its fits in the new generation or old.
This car has been an absolute dream. It's not only a flashy looking car..It also is very easy on gas and has been very dependable. It has an option of driving it in automatic or shift transmission. It also has eco friendly exhaust and it will tell you when your driving eco friendly.
Megan M
on April 6, 2020
It's a very good first car, very reliable and reasonably priced
Very reliable gets me everywhere. Smaller tires aren't very good for rainy conditions. Cabin is loud when driven. Although has Bose sound system. Sunroof is entertaining. My nieces love my car, they want one when they are older, unfortunately they stopped making scions.
Edna c
on April 3, 2020
Great ride. Wonderful on gas. No mechanical issues. Affordable.
I love the blue color of my car. My car gets great gas mileage. It is small enough to save on gas, but sporty enough to be stylish. This is my second Scion tc so I love them a lot. I love the rev of the engine. It sounds like a race car. Toyota really made a nice car.
Heather L
on March 2, 2020
The scion tc is an awesome car love the interior design.
I have a 2014 scion tc I bought it used so far I haven't had any issues with the cars performance I do however dislike the 2 door and roomy-ness I like the cars radio and how the car drives the oil changes are kind of expensive and now that I live in a different place it does not do good up and down the gravel road I have to travel now over all it is s great car for someone who does not have a family to drive around.
Melissa B
on February 24, 2020
Awesome handling and comfortable.
The scion tc is a wonderful fun vehicle to drive. I have had a few issues with the air conditioner hose coming off on this vehicle and have had some issues with the dealership handling the issues.
Jose P
on February 1, 2020
The aftermarket stereo system is really nice and I really like the alloy wheels.
Nothing really. The engine gets quite noisy but it is nothing to bad. The aftermarket sound system that comes standard was a really nice selling point for me. If they still made this car I'd highly recommend it. So that is all I have to say about it really and that is that is what it is.
Denise G

Scion tc is a great reliable and good singles car.
It is isn't a bad car but can become a gas hog very quick depends on how you drive it but nice interior and good engine. The transmission runs super smooth and it can be super quiet when driving. Kinda not a family car more of a sports car or singles car. Overall it is a great car and gets the job done.
travis g
on November 17, 2019
It looks great and sporty
I love how affordable it was and how sporty it looked. I like to customize my cars so this one is easy to do. I don't like how much gas it takes up and how it doesn't have as many features as other 2014 cars
Jordan G
on November 13, 2019
Scion is a great car, and can do many wonders for those who are into sport cars.
Is a great car. Have not had many problems with it at all. Has good speed, good brakes and does good on gas. Has a nice body to it and drives smooth. Car is very detailed and even has 2 sunroofs 1 in front 1 in back. The interior is all black and looks fairly foreign.

I love that the 10 series has the emblem in the front and the back the lights up.
It is a really good car. It is really reliable and it drives very smooth. Have not had a problem with it since I got it in 2013. The color is perfect, and the inside is has so much space. I took the seats down on the back and I was able to put furniture I been able to take it to the beach and the river.
Alejandro G
on October 22, 2019
Great car and a great time.
The scion tc so far has been extremely reliable. It has never failed me yet and overall the car looks great. The gas mileage is pretty good and the feel of the car is very sporty. The inside is pretty comfortable and the sun and moonroof allow nice amounts of light in.
Dre K

Great scion tc, love the ride!
My scion tc is very reliable. I have not had any major issues. It is comfortable to drive, in the city and outside the city. It is spacious, both in the front and the back seat. Easy to lower the back seat for a much more spacious trunk, even though the trunk is already pretty spacious.
Jeanette R

Perfect first car for young drivers.
Car is amazing in all aspects I am just 6'3 so its a pain to get in and out of but other than that 100% buy it great affordable reliable fun car. Perfect for a first car. Speakers are amazing, when you put it in sport she picks up real nice too can't go wrong.
Stephanie M
on August 10, 2019
It's reliable- doesn't break down- and is good for travel
I have the release series. It has a specialized color called silver ignition which has a blue-Gray color to it which is very unique. The scion logo lights up blue. The miles per gallon is decent. It's better for travel in snow/rain than my previous vehicle (slides less). I like the touch screen radio with controls on the steering wheel. Love the moon roof.
Ana R
on July 23, 2019
Keep up with the car maintenance.
I like the sporty design however it is missing luxuries like navigation, heated seats that I would like to have.
Israel V

It reserves gas using eco mode.
I love that my vehicle is able to reserve gas, and use an eco-mode that helps when traveling a far distance. I admire the outside & inside design of the vehicle. I admire that not only it reserves gas but also that it has a sports mode to give the perception to the driver that they own a sports car.
Alejandra S
on July 2, 2019
Overall good car but some negatives.
The interior is kind of cheap. Door trim vibrates with loud music. Overall I love the scion tc but it wastes more gas than my dodge dart. It is made for the driver because the a/c points directly to the driver and the passenger can be comfortable too. If you live in a hot climate I suggest not putting anyone in the back seat because no a/c reaches them.
Ivan F
on June 1, 2019
A sleek coupe that is phenomenal on gas and reliability.
A great overall car has decent room for being a coupe. It is great on gas and the handling is smooth. Seats are pretty comfortable not the best but not bad either. I have had my car for 3 years and have had no mechanical problems or issues with my car. So it is a reliable car. Looks wise it is sleek and sporty and provides great value for the price of the car.
Morgan M
on May 21, 2019
I purchased a spoiler for it to make it feel more sporty.
I absolutely have zero complaints about my vehicle. I have driven it to Florida, NC multiple times, Tennessee & many other places. It rides & drives well. The only thing I wish would be a tad better is the gas mileage, but other than that, nothing at all.
Charlie B

2014 scion tc base model review.
I have been driving my tc for over a year now and I absolutely love it. Other than routine maintenance, I have had no problems with the performance of the vehicle at all. Every time I get in I know it will get me where I need to go. I do wish that the base model came with a few extra features such as heated seats but I would not exchange the vehicle just based on this.
Whitney F
on May 6, 2019
Overall my car is a sporty collectors item.
I love my car. It is one of Scion's 10th year anniversary cars and will be worth a lot of money in years to come. It's everything that I wanted when I bought it (manual transmission, coupe, sporty). Despite my love for my car, I have had problems with a fan sound in the engine. It happens periodically.
Romattee G
on May 1, 2019
Standard shift, sports coupe. It runs well and the upkeep is very reasonable.
Perfect car for the city especially during traffic. NYC is not easy for anyone but this car moves fairly easily through heavy stop and go crowded street with a competent driver. The Bluetooth works okay with mac and Samsung but Wifi when using music can be very tedious. The kids love the skylight above. Car take a good of wear and tear.
Shannon A
on April 22, 2019
It is not in production anymore.
The car has been reliable with little issue. It is fun to drive because it is a manual and has quick get up and go. I wish the trunk was a little bigger and that they still made the tc.
Jordan E
on April 8, 2019
It is comfortable to ride in.
Love this car. Have not had a problem with it (knock on wood). My model is a manual which is so fun to drive. It also has lots of room, which surprises people since it does look small from the outside. The fold down seats with the hatchback trunk makes is so I can carry large items as well as a lot of items at once. I transported a large bookshelf from Chicago to Milwaukee comfortably. Engine performance is great. Very good car. Highly recommend.
John F
on April 8, 2019
My car is very affordable yet has many premium features and drives well.
I like the driving style of the vehicle. The interior is clean and comfortable. I like the media center as well. I would like it more if there was a coin holder or two.

The high quality of my scion tc.
At this moment I do not have any kind of problem with my car. I drive like 240 miles ones at month to visit my family. I love the audio system. My car its really economic in question of gas. I use the car every day to work and I only filled one time at week. The a/c works perfectly. The panoramic view in my car its other think, because at night I can go to some dark place put my seat down and watch the stars. My scion tc it is perfect for me because I do not have kids.
Richy L
on January 30, 2019
2010-2016 scion tc input on interior.
It is a sporty yet youthful looking car. It is very roomy for a 2 door hatchback. The interior is kind of on the cheaper looking side and easy to maintain. Overall gas mileage is around 20 mpg if your looking for a sporty car that will last a while this is a good car for you. Part are fairly cheap, the door panel is very cheaply made so the clips on the inside tend to snap easily with weight.
marta z

Sleek design with excellent performance
An excellent car for the price level. Reliable I haven't had any mechanical issues with the car and I have over 70k miles. 5 stars for comfort and design I live the bucket seats and state system. God is also a great help.
Bethany P
on January 12, 2019
It is safe and reliable if you ever get into an accident.
The only drawback about my car is how low it sits. Other than that, the car is flawless. It performs great, has no problem getting up to speed, handles great and I was in one accident and the car took the hit beautifully.
Joseph M
on December 9, 2018
Fun. Sporty. Big for a small car. Reliable.
I love the speakers it comes with. It also has push to start and leather seats. I really enjoy the sunroof and the big windows. If you see one you should buy it. It is not very fast performance wise but it does have a sport mode. I really love the hatch back as well.
Yolanda D
on December 8, 2018
A fun car to drive, that is a very economical. Spacious with the hatchback.
It is surprisingly very spacious and handles great around corners. Seats could use improvement, as they become uncomfortable during extended drives.
Jaz G

2014 scion tc: best car I have had so far that makes everyday driving a blast.
I have not have an issues with my car. It drives really smooth and it is great on gas. I like to think of it as an affordable "race car". I go on long drives from Oregon to California twice a year and it has no problem going. Since I have bought my car, I have had no problems, plus the car is very appealing to the eye. It is a good starter car for young adults or anyone who wants to have a good looking car while having it not be too expensive and durable. It is very spacious as well.
