Xb Instrument Compartment

2008 scion xb review

The all-new xB is powered by a 2.4-liter dual-overhead-cam four-cylinder engine with Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i) which produces 158 horsepower, 55 more than the previous generation. The xB features either a five-speed manual transmission or a four-speed automatic with sequential shifting, a first for automatic four-speeds in the Scion line-up. Despite its increase in size, the upcoming xB still has the iconic boxy look that has proven so popular. Somehow Scion designers have managed to update this box with more rounded corners. Noticeably at the front where the deep bumpers are so well integrated into the front fenders that they help make the box look even boxier. The roof is one of the flattest roofs seen in a long time. Yet it adds to the character, especially where it drops almost vertically down to the large C-pillar. One advantage of this commercial look is a large tailgate that makes it easier to get bikes and surfboards into the back. In addition to the electronic gadgetry, the t2b boasts a surprisingly roomy cabin, an impression aided by the wraparound windshield and fixed moonroof panels, as well as the upside-down trapezoid shape of the interior. Cabin flourishes include specially contoured seats, zippered storage compartments (including one in the steering wheel), and a unique floor, where the carpet pokes through long, rubberized slots like perfectly manicured hedges in a row. The concept is built on an all-new platform and is powered by a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine mated to a four-speed automatic. It sits on twenty-inch polished aluminum wheels.
