I think it stands for touring coupe but ive heard that originally the tC was going to be a toyota car that would replace the current Toyota Celica (TC). But im not sure on that one.

Read the main forum page ...

below the RS section there is the Road and Track Article

Quote:

Why not xC, you ask? Well, Volvo has the rights to that with its XC90. The tC stands for Touring Coupe. And the name Scion, what does that mean? According to the trusty Merriam-Webster online dictionary, a scion is a descendant. This is logical, for Scion is Toyota's. Toyota understands that Gen Y buyers have different priorities, and that the cars should be designed to meet them.

Every couple of months someone asks what "tC" stands for, they get told it stands for "touring coupe" and then a mod locks the topic and asks everyone to PLEASE SEARCH!!!

So,
