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.

  Good economy car - 2004 Scion xA
  By peter - November 2 - 11:20 pm

  HAD this car for 2 months. ride is a little to firm but I knew this when I boughtit. Long term I expext it will be very reliable. I changed the bridgestone Potenza tires and put Michelin Harmony. Harmony tire has much better grip on slippery surface but did not improve ride.

  I am a single mom with two kids, and this car has always been reliable, fun, and stylish! I would recommend it to anyone. I just wish it got better gas mileage!

  I love my little car. We bought it right off the show room floor. It is the best car I have ever had. I would never give it up.

  The Best Car I Have Ever Owned - 2004 Scion xA
  By ShawnD - April 7 - 4:20 pm

  I have had this car for almost two years and have put 47,000 miles on it thus far with no problems. The xA is very good on gas even though I have a heavy foot at times. I would definitely purchase another one.

  Feels like a bigger car - 2004 Scion xA
  By jotape - January 22 - 2:00 am

  Ive been driving the xA for two weeks now. Its a small car that feels like bigger car. The room inside, plus the height of the seats makes you feel like youre driving something bigger than most other cars on the road. Yet, you can squeeze into those small spots and save tons of money on gas. The performance has been good and consistent. The controls are good except for those of the stereo (which sounds great). Ive driven it both in the city and on the highway and the performance is very good. It responds very well. I got used to the speedometer location very quickly and honestly prefer it over it being behind the steering wheel.

  Best of the Best - 2004 Scion xA
  By SilverRarity - January 22 - 2:00 am

  After doing on-line reviews of small cars with standard features I kept finding that the Scion xA was the best car overall. I ordered the car, without test driving it, and when it came in and drove it I found it was more than I ever expected. I have a 1999 5 speed Corvette (summer car) and wanted a reliable, fun to drive winter car and man Ive found it! Its practical, great to drive, great to look at and have already have recommended it to two friends who are definately going to purchase it. The fit and finish of the car is top notch and I was shocked at the power this small 4 cylinder has. For the price and standard features it cant be beaten.

  they should do a comercial about me - 2004 Scion xA
  By jy - January 5 - 11:36 pm

  Had a Toyota echo. Put over 200k miles on it with only changing the brakes and exhaust manifold gasket. Wanted a newer car. The xa has the same power train as the echo. So bought it.$11.9k . Same as the echo. Great mileage (I drive 90% highway. At least 38+mpg). Ive loaded it up with lumber (strapped qty 16 16 1x8s on the roof), cement, you name it, Ive loaded it. No probs. I consider ti a throw way car so Im not concerned about the roof or scratching it. Thats why I load it to the max when I do my home depot runs. Cant beat it. The only thing Ive done on it is new brakes/rotors in the front and exhaust gasket. (90k miles on it at that point)
