www.autobytel.c... The 2012 Scion xD is a car that has been marketed to the younger generation since its inception. But the xD is more than just a sub-compact teenager car. Instead the Scion xD is affordably priced, it gets solid fuel economy, it looks good, and comes packed with a ton of standard features and options; making it an appealing vehicle for a broad spectrum of car buyers. And the best part if the 2012 Scion xD only costs $15,345.
The best thing about the Scion line-up is that all the vehicles they make are pretty hip and sporty. They all drive well and get excellent fuel economy. The second best thing about the Scion brand is that they are a no non-sense company. Meaning they offer one trim level per vehicle. So the Honda Accord or Ford F-150 for instance can have up to 30 different trim levels. Not so with the 2012 Scion xD. There is one model available with either a manual or automatic transmission. From there you can add on tons of options for the engine, suspension, interior, and exterior. Toyota Racing Development (TRD) makes tons of parts for the Scion xD which can be ordered directly through the dealership. Want a cool performance exhaust or sport air filter? TRD makes those. Want to lower your ride and add stiffer suspension components? No problem as those can be bought and installed from any Scion dealership. The options for exterior, interior, and performance modifications are numerous. In the end you can have a very unique automobile right from the factory.
The 2012 Scion xB is powered by a 1.8 liter 4-cylinder engine that produces 128 horsepower and 125 lb-ft. of torque. Not a whole lot but this is a sub-compact car and it does not take much to get it going. Also remember the xD is quite inexpensive so you cannot expect to have a high powered motor. The small engine makes for great fuel economy with the 2012 Scion xD netting 27 MPG in the city and 33 MPG on the highway. The Scion xD comes standard with many great features like air conditioning, power everything, cruise control, keyless entry, a Pioneer audio system, Bluetooth, and HD radio. The 2012 Scion xD is also very safe getting top ratings in 12 of the 13 IIHS categories.

@bmwmsport11 11 лет назад
I think scions look like sporty toyotas, meaning their practical basic transportation with an edge. Also what's good with this engine is that it's directly from a corolla meaning reliablity is great. Since Toyota is reworking the corolla for 2014, I think I'll wait and see if they change the tranny in the XD to a 6-spd auto. If not there's always the TC.

@empee3216
@empee3216 11 лет назад
In my opinion, the car is a bit stiff. I'm not sure if it's the chassis, the suspension, or simply because it's a "new" car (4 months old as of this writing) and therefore not broken into. Over rough pavement it's not too jarring, but definitely not as smooth as my '97 Civic (whose chassis or suspension was probably caving in anyway giving a nice lumpy ride). I guess for a car this small and a wheelbase this short, the ride over bad pavement is acceptable, and bumps are taken with some ease.
@empee3216
@empee3216 11 лет назад

I own Toyota Urban Cruiser made in 2009. Scion xD and the Urban Cruiser are basically the same car BUT Urban Cruiser gets a 1.33 petrol engine with 101 hp and a 6-speed manual. Also, my average consumption is 40 mpg. I just want to say I believe that it's shame that the Urban Cruiser doesn't sell in Europe with the 1.8 petrol engine from the review because this car needs a bigger engine. I find my Urban sometimes underpowered with the engine it has.

Scion doesn't have trims which is fine, but they do pure pricing. Looking at Saturn, I can't help but think that is what killed them in the end. I just bought a car and It was between a Chevy and a Scion. Chevy won mostly because I could negotiate and get more bang for my buck.
@djkenny1202
@djkenny1202 6 лет назад
They were negotiating on Scion. I saw even XB models discounted to 13k range. Those are the most reliable car made. How’s the Chevy? Which one and how much? Cobalts were like 10 grand that year when discounted. Decent.

they don't make 2012 xD anymore, but they still make the xD. that's just how car dealers make money, by giving you way under-price for a trade in, and rip you off with a new car. if you love your car and there is not a major issue with it then just stick to it.

I like the suspension and the shape of the car. Very aerial dynamic.. I can get 40mpg on average on the freeway and have made videos on that.. It is compact and zips around corners.. It can also tow despite the lack of people that do that and I have made a video on that as well

@geosunkist 10 лет назад
Sure. But apparently it's nowhere near as reliable and long-lasting as the toyota/scion yaris/xd. It's entirely possible for transmissions to fail on Kia's in as little at 70k miles immediately making it a junk car.
