Overview & Reviews

In an effort to get buyers under 30 into its dealerships, Toyota launches an all-new division called Scion. The brand will eventually grow to three models, but for now two are offered; one of these is a small but well-equipped five-door hatchback called the xA. Scion will use a no-haggle sales strategy and give buyers ample opportunity to customize their xAs, drawing upon a list of over three dozen dealer-installed options.

• The cool stuff costs extra, modest passing power with automatic transmission, no cruise control.

  Scion xa - 2004 Scion xA
  By Melissa - November 28 - 9:03 am

  I love my car! Its nice to have a compact car that sits higher and not on the floor. It handles nicely, has good gas mileage, and is cute too! The one and only thing I dont like is that somehow the way the gas tank is designed, causes the gas pump to kick off when fueling up. So, you have to manually fuel up at times.

  Fantastic Car, Great Value - 2004 Scion xA
  By Kirk - November 22 - 8:26 am

  After driving the same car for 14 years, we needed something new. The sporty xA (as opposed to the hideous, boxy xB) was just what we were looking for. Power steering, brakes, windows, and door locks, anti-lock brakes, driver and passenger airbags, awesome fuel economy (we average about 30mpg), CD player/six-speaker stereo system and comfortably seats five - all standard! These features alone blew us away. Our son is 64" and sits comfortably in the back seat. Weve comfortably fit 5 adults at once. The only upgrades we purchased were fog lights and the six-disc CD changer, and it still cost us under $14,000. The Toyota engineering was also a major selling point. Highly recommended.

  A Must Drive for Cost Concious - 2004 Scion xA
  By AET - July 23 - 10:00 am

  We reasearched this car and decided to take a gamble based on its Toyota "heritage". This is a great fun little car. Over sticker price options with other cars are "Standard features" in the XA. It was cheaper to insure than some of its competitors as well. Money was a big factor in decision making. I wish I had the money to buy another XA for my wifes running around town errands. The back seat has the added security of the hooks for the "latch systems" on todays child car seats. Its fun to drive. I love it, and my kids love it. It feels like having the best new toy on the block, without breaking the piggy bank.

  I love this little car. - 2004 Scion xA
  By Patella - May 30 - 10:00 am

  Ive had the xA for about a week now, and I am so impressed. Though the ride can be a tad bumpy, the car absolutly zips on the highway. The interior is comfortable and intuitive, and though never one for flash, I have to say the sound system is so much fun. Its amazing how small the car is from the outside, yet how tall and roomy it feels inside. I keep getting out and expecting to be standing next to a much larger car. Though not for everyone, I love the unusual dash layout, although I still am not quite used to looking center for my speed. In short, I love this little car!

  Scion xA Release Series 1.0 Rocks - 2004 Scion xA
  By Jamison - May 12 - 6:16 pm

  Weve only had this car for a few weeks, but have totally enjoyed it. Even though the sticker (and the dealer) said wed only get 31-36mpg weve found that using 89 octane instead of 87, and driving sensibly have gotten us an average of 38-43 mpg. The car is fun! It is packed with lots of nice standard features and the RS 1.0 version adds a nice "moon roof", cool wheels, and much more agile handling than the standar Scion xA. I with that it came with cruise control though. Weve added the cold air induction system and gotten a lot better acceleraton with no apparent negative effect on gas mileage. There arent many Scions around here so no one seems to know what it is. Its easy to find in a parking lot full of look alikes.

  Complete Review - 2004 Scion xA
  By esavov - March 11 - 10:00 am

  This is a great compact car. There are many features that I really Like: 1. Interior looks nice, not cheap and squeaky. 2. Ive noticed that my eyes dont get "bothered" while driving at night for a long distance. 3. The only thing I paid extra for was nice rims, power steering, and side/curtain airbags. Total of 15,400. 4. Vehicle comes with an excellent CD player (plays MP3 as well), power doors and windows, AC, etc. 5. Cargo area is actually great. When the seats are up the smaller area is still perfect for grocery shopping. 6. This car has plenty of power. I constantly find myself speeding without even trying.
