What's New for the 2006 Scion xB?
The Scion xB's audio systems have been upgraded for 2006. All units now have a portable audio mini-jack, and the optional Pioneer system has a special Apple iPod connectivity feature.
Advantages of the 2006 Scion xB:
- Full load of standard equipment
- Myriad ways to customize to the buyer's tastes
- Reliability is expected to mirror products by parent company Toyota
- Tremendous interior utility with more room for people and things than you might expect
- Funky design proves just the canvass for Gen Y'ers needing to express their individuality
Objections to the 2006 Scion xB: - Engine could use a can or two of Red Bull
- Adding dealer-installed accessories causes the price to rise dramatically
Editor's Advice:
Generation Y Californians were the guinea pigs for an entire auto producing and marketing industry that wanted to see if Toyota's new Scion brand would successfully convince younger consumers to visit Scion showrooms and buy Scion automobiles. Clearly, the experiment has been a success – Scions are now sold nationwide. The xB, which has never met a right angle that it didn't like, offers a surprising amount of versatility and interior room. Just keep in mind that ordering some dealer-installed accessories puts the xB's price close to that of the larger, more powerful and equally useful Honda Element.
