NEW: 2008 Scion xB (Not bB anymore) and xD (Bye Bye xA) - Toyota Yaris Forums

Not a great look from my age-ed prospective, and decidedly even more up-scale. Just what every young person needs - a bigger car payment!

The move to a 1.8L I can understand, but a 2.4L - seems to be taking some more economy out of the xB.

The Xd looks like it might be closer to the Versa than the Yaris LB.

still don't like the xD, the new xB isn't so bad. i imagine those huge pillars would cause for a massive blind spot while driving. not my cup o' tea. and these scions do look like they're getting much bigger. guess toyota doesnt want scion to compete with the yaris lineup. these look placed between the yaris and corrola/matrix...

According to what was written about the xd .. boys and girls, introducing Yaris's Scion counterpart .. I quote "the new xD now moves to a slightly larger Yaris platform..."

As for the xB .. it is now equiped with the tC motor.
