As a carryover from 2008, Scion expects to make no major changes to its 2009 xD. One trim will be offered: a four-door, five-passenger wagon. Under the hood it will have a 1.8-liter, 124-hp, four-cylinder engine that gets an EPA estimated 27/33 mpg. A five-speed manual transmission is standard, with the option of a four-speed automatic. The 60/40 split-folding rear seats fold down for additional cargo space.

The xD features an anti-skid system, traction control, and front side and curtain side airbags for safety.

Build quality,standard/optional features/accessories.It is not a sports/performance machine;but I get from AB and back with comfort and economy. I drove a 5MT Honda Insight for 8 yrs. and while economical it was a maintenance headache. My xD does not have the fuel economy of a hybrid but the purchase price is much more economical and the maintenance costs should far offset the fuel costs.Overall I am quite pleased with my new xD and if it displays the same reliability as previous Toyota products Ive owned(it has a Corolla/Matrix motor)then it will be a purchase that was well chosen on my part.So far I have only 1 :"complaint" about the car:since it has the larger (Corolla/Matrix) engine,it should have the same fuel capacity(13.2gal.vs.11.1gal. of the Yaris!Dec 16, 2008

The driving is exqusite. You can feel the car grip to the ground when accelerating and turning. The interior and exterior are really nice. It has very low miles and is a brand new 2009. This car has optional features that can be put in at any time, such as interior lighting, an upgraded stereo, and upgraded rims. This car is awesomeAug 25, 2008
