2008 Scion xB Reviews:

Cnet reviewed the 2008 Scion xB and gave out”The good: The 2008 Scion xB is a tech-laden bargain wagon with a nice standard iPod interface among its many cabin electronics, plenty of space inside, and an easy-to-drive nature.The bad: Bluetooth cell phone integration is glaringly absent, and overall the new xB is bigger and less stylish than its urban-chic predecessor.The bottom line: The new Scion xB has lost its bold exterior creases and some of its character, but has also grown up a bit and now represents one of the best tech values we’ve seen in a new car.”

Cars reviewed the 2008 Scion xB and gave out”Performance: Good New 2.4-liter engine provides more power and longer wheelbase and wider track create better handling. Exterior: Good The xB wears its softer edges and bigger size well. Interior: Good Very nontraditional. Increased space makes it more comfortable but over use of plastic feels low grade. Safety: Excellent Standard side curtain airbags for front and rear passengers, antilock brakes and electronic stability control. Pros: A well-priced multipurpose vehicle. Cons: New xB loses some of its funk factor.”
