2008 Scion xB

2008 Scion xB Model Overview

Vehicle Summary: 2008 Scion xB

The youth-targeted Scion xB is a boxy subcompact wagon that affords maximum flexibility both as a people mover and light-duty cargo hauler. The xB shares its four-cylinder engine with the larger Toyota Camry, which makes the xB a lively ride. It comes with an impressive array of features for the money, and can be tricked out with a long list of accessories for those who don't find its appearance unique enough. There's enough room in the back seat to fit two six-footers with legroom to spare, and its cargo hold rivals many larger SUVs with the seats folded flat.
