Used Scion xA

Scion xA 150

The launch of an inexpensive hatchback — the Scion xA in 2004 was considered a good move to garner a bigger share of the automotive industry pie. Marketed towards the younger generation, the much bigger mother company which is Toyota did not fail to recognize the important of the standard features that have been so recognized in their older platforms.

The Scion xA rolled down the city streets with a fresh look and feel which made the younger generation feel the drumbeat of the 1.5L, 4-cylinder engine that has a 103 horsepower and 5-speed manual transmission. The automatic transmission was also available. Fuel efficiency is up to par at 32 mpg for city driving and 38 for highway driving,

The Scion xA lasted until 2006 to give way to yet another model that still is within the same platform of savvy hatchbacks that the younger generation has loved and accepted.

Estimated Price Range for Used Scion xA: $5,000-$15,000
Estimated MPG for Scion xA: 27 City/34 Hwy

Used Scion xB

Scion xB 150

The Scion xB is definitely getting much attention from the younger crowd due to its pimp-my-car attitude that has been gaining quite an attraction lately. The older generations would nod in disagreement whenever they would see a box on wheels rolling down the street and booming doo-ah-dee-a-diddy-dum-diddy-doo. What really captures the eyes of these young ones is the image it projects; the price is charges and a big interior to take in all their BFFs.

Its exterior design is not about it looks but what is under its hood. The Scion xB boasts of an amazing 158 hp, 2.4L, 4-cylinder automatic transmission.

The proud owners of the Scion xB could describe their vehicle as something in between a hatchback, a wagon or CUV that somewhat looks like an aspiring SUV. The Scion xB would always end up misunderstood but in the eyes of these young city dwellers? It’s their bling.

Base MSRP for New Scion xB: $17,030
Estimated Price Range for Used Scion xB: $3,900-$15,000
Estimated MPG for Scion xB: 22 City/28 Hwy
