2008-2011 Scion xB Specifications

The 2008-2010 Scion xB is larger and more substantial in structure than the original 2004-2007 xB. Added were more safety features such as side airbags and a larger more powerful 2.4 liter engine similar to that of the Toyota Camry. A lower roof line gives a sleeker look than the first generation “box” profile.
