Bigger xB Is Better
The feature car in today's Atlanta Journal Constitution is the 2008 Scion xB and includes a full color large photo as well. The reviewer likes the more powerful engine - up a full 55 ponies! The limo-like legroom and headroom are impressive too. It says -"The Scion xB has the roominess of a clown car", and I guess that is a complement. The free oil changes at 5,000 and 10,000 miles is a nice touch.
On the down side are poor rear visibility due to the much thicker C-pillar and smaller rear windows, and lack of a long list of options.
It says that the competition for this market segment is fairly small, which will help Scion.
The conlusion - "Bigger xB Is Better!"
