The car is great overall, even with minor detail issues.
The performance of the car is great, I absolutely love the way it drives. It does have an issue the informing lights. For example, my tire pressure light came on and I went to get them filled up and the light has not turned off since and my tires are fine. I wish it had automatic headlights but instead you have to manually turn on and off your lights when you get in and out.

It's white and small. It is great the way it is.
The vehicle is amazing. No problem. Runs great. Don't spend much on gas. It is white. It's a 5 seater. A/c works fine. Radio is amazing. Aux cable can be used and CDs. Windows are kind of tinted. Very comfortable. Small car in general but it is over great. Nothing wrong with it.

The scion car is great quality.
It drives well and the gas mileage is pretty good. I love how comfy the seats are and all the room the square shape provides. The navigation system is definitely out dated though but the sound system is still fantastic. Overall it is a good car that is lasted many years of long road trips.

It is a great family car with an abundance of space.
I love how the controls are set-up on the dashboard and steering wheel. I would like a bigger center console to hold items. I also like the combination of cloth and leather on the seats. The cloth makes it warmer in the winter.

Great, very well built, never experienced major problems
I love the Scion xB handling and driving. It seems small on the outside but roomy on the inside. Low maintenance vehicles very well built. I have had the older model too. And always is reliable. Just routine maintenance and has always been a good running car.

It's extremely dependable
There's nothing in dislike about my car. I bought this car used but hardly any miles and it's never let me down.....even driven it across the country. I keep it up but rarely do I need to have it serviced.

Cool car but do not expect your dream.
For what it is worth, it is a fine car. The cabin can be noisy and when I am on the phone, people ask if I have the windows down. Additionally, it can break a lot as if it wasn't fully tightened when assembled. I also do not like that there’s no key hole in the passenger side door.

The perfect first time car for teens and people looking for cars under $10k.
I like my car. It runs well. The only issues I had was that after having it for only a month or two, I had to buy a new battery and new brakes. Every sense then, I have not had any other problems as of yet. It is big and spacious and holds a lot. I can take it for long trips and I can take my friends and family out and about. It is perfect for families.

4.9 out of 5 stars wish it had a little more power.
300k miles and still my everyday driver. 25 mpg highway 5 speed. Will run it till the ground. Plenty of space inside I am 6'0 tall and its comfortable. Ac is really cold only thing I really regret is not having navigation in it. Highly recommend for an economical daily driver.

Scion xb is the small SUV for the everyday people.
This car is a great gas saver, it has lots of space inside, 5 people can sit comfortably. It also a great color, its front wheel drive and has nice interior, has a v6 motor and nice alloy rims. You can easily fit a nice sized dresser inside, back seats do lay down flat for a camping trip or if you need to help a friend move to a new place.

Great features, great space, great car.
The car is from 2010 but still drives like new! Ac works great and so do speakers! The car has so much space in the front back and in the trunk, great to have fun adventures in! The car has unique dashboard, that is clear for driver to see! The car is not a hassle unlike other cars that need to be repaired frequently out of all the years of owned there have been little to no problems.

I personally love the stick shift. My son loves the shape of the car.
I love our Toyota scion xb. It is fun to drive. It is very comfortable. It is roomy. It is great on gas mileage. My 11 year old son loves it too (which is a diet that is hard to achieve, lol.) We had a Chrysler pacifica which was nice but really just too big. Were very pleased with our choice.
Julie F

Good vehicle choice for everyone.
Been a good vehicle. Visor could have an extender on it. Runs well. I like that it is stick shift. Drives well, gets good mileage, has enough room for two dog crates for medium sized dogs with the rear seats down. The vehicle is 10 years old and the brakes and battery have lasted this long and I drive daily for work.
Jonathan M
on September 21, 2020
Scion xb should I buy this car?
The car itself is very reliable. Drive is pretty quiet and the car itself usually lasts you a long time. The only bad thing is that it constantly needs oil to be put in but the benefits outweigh the cons. The car itself is also very spacious inside even though from the outside looks small. The car is a really good one.
Linda M

I hate this car and I cannot wait to buy a new car.
Blind spots-ugly design, I cannot find the interior fuse box, even though I have watched for youtube videos. Constant product recalls. Notifications for the brakes and airbags. I really hate the way this car is designed. Problems with the air conditioner fans.

Low gas mileage to get you going where you need!
I love my scion xb, I call her my black betty! It is low gas mileage helps a busy girl like myself. I have had my car for about 3 years now and it still runs like new even with driving 5 hours a day for work and my long road trip across from California to North Carolina.

That a Scion has a lot of Toyota parts
Easy to park in the city. Starting to need a lot of upkeep which I don't like.

Check On Your Car Regularly
I have nothing to say it just a regular low gas miles car. I make sure that the transmission fluid is always at a good level and is changed periodically to make sure your car can shift smoothly and keep you in control of the car at all times

Decent room for size, looks different than other cars on road.
Dislike age of vehicle/not latest technology like Bluetooth and backup camera. Like room and fuel economy.

The scion xb is a great car. Although they have some factory problems.
Great little car with lots of room inside! After so long the engine does burn oil so definitely a good idea to keep an eye on it! The ride is very comfortable. Stereo system sounds awesome. Has a great turning radius when parking. Has a sleek look almost like a toaster.

2010 Scion XB: Kept us super safe in an accident! Never had a mechanical issue!
I have had zero mechanical issues with my car and have owned it since 2010 brand new off the lot. It is incredibly roomy; the leg room in the back seat row is better than any SUV or Sedan plus plenty of trunk space as well. It is stylish looking and runs smoothly. I have driven cross country in this vehicle 2 times and taken many a family vacation in it comfortably. Also I give it 5 stars in safety- once I was driving down a busy highway and construction was going on the side of the road. One of the heavy equipment knocked a tall concrete lamp post that lines the highway and it fell right on top of my scion as I was driving 55 miles an hour down the road! It bounced twice on my roof. I screamed thinking it was going to cave in and hurt my baby in the back. We were OK! It made two large dents but you couldn't even tell from the inside. The build on this car is great and I feel so safe in it after that accident and seeing how safe it kept us.

Scion standard model -stereo upgrade.
There have been recalls-window switch, airbag switch. It does get very good mileage 29-20 highway-standard transmission, lots of room, back seats fold down, great alpine stereo, jacks for iPod, mp3 players, cruise control is very reliable, comfortable seats.
Jeff P

It is small and fas efficient but has a lot of interior room when the back seats are folded
I have not any issues with my vehicle so far. I bought it used about a year ago and driven it approx 10000 miles since. It now has almost 95000 miles and still going strong.

I like that it is comfortable. I like that it is easy to drive. Dislike that it not high enough to avoid heavy rain puddles. But overall, I love the car.
Janet M

It is fuel efficient and economical, yet large enough to transport lots of stuff.
The car is small, but spacious. It is a limited edition color. It is easy to find in a parking lot.
Amber S

So much you can do with modifications to an scion xb.
The best thing about the scion xb is the gas mileage. I get anywhere from 50-70 mpg. Also, the inside is extremely spacious and very comfortable. My fiance has been making personal adjustments to it like he just installed a new exhaust, box, and it is a lot faster now. He just loves that it is noisiest now.
Michelle M

My car is amazing and so much room.
For just a small car it has great deal of leg room for the tall people, uneven great headroom for the top people also. Great gas mileage. Fun to drive, plenty of room for all my stuff. It easy to find parking with my little car. Great get up and go power. Comfortable in the backseat.
Anthony M
on January 7, 2020
Great and reliable vehicle
I haven't had any issues in terms of performance. The vehicle handles well. Aside from getting a few alignments, due to living in the mountains and driving on rough terrain, no real issues. The only complaint would be how low the car is to the ground, but it hasn't led to any problems.

Need a car for camping? Try the scion.
The scion is spacious and roomy. Gets great mileage, and is a very reliable vehicle. This is my 2nd scion, after trading the first one in. I love them as cars, and will likely get another when this one is done. We use it for camping as well, if you lay the seats down, it holds a queen air mattress in the back.

Oil burning, but love my scion
Love this car. It burns through a lot of oil which is an extra added expense. It is fuel efficient and takes turns and holds at high speeds really well. Just enough room for a family of 4
Randy R

The color that cannot be matched.
The car is extremely spacious and definitely a conversation starter! I wish it had a backup camera and Bluetooth connection but I guess that is something that can always be added. I haven't had any problems except for the starter here recently. The awesome thing about my xb I have noticed is that it is made by Toyota and even with 160,000 miles it runs amazing.
Paige N
on September 20, 2019
Great daily driver and family car.
I love it. It is a great car. Very reliable and great on gas. A very great family car. I haven't run into many problems other than wear and tear which is expected for a car that is used daily. I do not find it too hard to take care of it. Keeping up on oil changes is what I find to help keep the car in great condition.
Alicia K

My Scion xB has great get up and go. It has some great storage throughout the car
I like the head room that is available in my car. I do wish that it had more storage room in the back. I also wish that the side panels in the back were glass instead of metal. The panels are right where I need to see when backing out
April D
on August 28, 2019
Great first reliable car.
The scion xb has great gas mileage. It is reliable. The vehicle is also very spacious. The back seats go down so you are able to transfer larger items if you need to. The car is a tad slow. The car is not always smooth when driving because it is so close to the ground compared to a typical sedan. The windshield is known to crack easily if hit by a pebble on the freeway due to the wide-fish bowl like structure.
Jennifer H

How comfortable it is. It also holds the road well.
I love my Xb. It is roomy, I can haul things. So far, no mechanical problems.
Brian D

Tiny, cute and surprisingly spacious!
My biggest problem with this specific version of the Toyota scion is how low the car is to the ground. It is very easy to bottom out in this car and it has once resulted in me knocking off my bumper. Other than that the car is very easy to park because of its size. The handling and acceleration of this car is optimal and makes you feel very at one with the car (also due to its size I believe). Also on the topic of the size, the interior is, much more spacious than you would expect! It also has a good capacity for storage because by dropping down the back seat everything being the front cockpit becomes storage, I moved across the country with me and my partners belongings only in this car!

2010 xb: the hidden gem of vans.
The visibility in the car is fantastic. Comfortable seats even for shorter people (I am 5'2') and a great sound system! It does have a fair amount of road noise but it rides well for a front wheel drive vehicle. It has so much cargo space, so you can fit almost anything you need in there, and fits more than some of my physically larger vehicles.
Shannon R

Roomy and good gas mileage.
Love the gas mileage, love the amount of legroom, love dependability. Not good in the snow, not enough room in the far back (trunk).

2010 scion. One of the best cars out there!
I have had my car for about 5 years now and it has just under 100 thousand miles on it. Absolutely no problems at all. The best car I have ever had and it is the 4th car I have owned. Initially, I purchased the car as a car to use just to and from work, but if I had the chance to buy this car new I would jump on the opportunity.

The height of the inside gives driver and passenger rooming feeling. It's a small car but can take 5 passengers not feel crowded.
I like the box looking shape. It has lots of room and cargo space for a small car. The car is dependable and reliable.

Zero stability in construction of a square it is splitting the seams in recalls.
Too many recalls that dealer has yet to fix, it feels like it will tip over on the highway at 65 mph, and when larger vehicles pass it feels unstable. The car itself is extremely uncomfortable and really bad blind spots.. Back passenger seat is too small for two car seats.
Michael M

It is comfortable and provides a lot of space for both passengers and driver.
Rides well, has a lot of room, the AC and Pioneer sound system are amazing, could be better on gas mileage.

They skimped on some simple things, but it's an overall good car.
It's a fairly cheap car, but it has a lot of space. It's missing simple things like intermittent wipers and a second backup light. Overall though, is reliable and roomy.
Marge B

Reliable, comfortable, and affordable.
I have had my car almost 10 years and have had no problems with it. It is very reliable. I have had new brakes, tires & battery but that is it. It is comfortable and very roomy. There is a lot of space in the cargo area with the back seat down. Great car, very smooth ride.
Olivia B
on February 1, 2019
My scion only stays around because the gas mileage I get and the cargo space.
The car is very comfortable and fuel efficient. I have gone up the California and Oregon coast in it a few times, handles very well, even with overhead carrier on the car. The only downside is how low to the ground the vehicle is, it is definitely not a dirt road or off road vehicle.
Barbara R

Big comforts in a small car.
This car has tons of space. It handles very well in all types of weather. It has the ability to be a manual or automatic. It gets excellent gas mileage. Most maintenance is easy to do although the spark plugs can be a little hard to reach without a tool if you have bigger hands. It drive smoothly, barely feel any bumps in the road.
Julie F
on January 26, 2019
Smooth ride with get up and go!
So far I've not had many problems with the vehicle. I don't like you can't extend the sun visor. I would also have liked it to have been AWD or 4WD. I like it has a tire pressure light, air conditioning, cruise, volume/changing stations button on the steering wheel, and that it is stick shift. All in all, it's been a great vehicle so far.
Daniel C
on January 10, 2019
The gas mileage is not the best.
I like the size of the vehicle, it is small and compact. What I do not like are the headlights because they're manual. I also like the control of the steering.

It's manual and good on gas. I've never had any major issues. I'm going on 195,000 miles and have no engine issues. The car is roomy and Can actually fit 2 twin size mattresses in it. The speakers sound clear and the bass gives the music something special.

The gas mileage is great, and it is very roomy for a person who is 6'2.
This vehicle is very reliable. Maintaining regular scheduled maintenance really helps with the reliability. Only major thing I had to replace was the alternator. It is very easy for a do it yourself. The way the engine was constructed made it easy to change.
Elizabeth M

Does not get the best gas mileage.
Love the interior color. Love how spacious the interior is and love that it is compact and small enough to park into tighter parking areas. Do not like that i cannot tow or have 4 wheel drive.
