Future of Scion from Autoweek
xB: Scion boss Mark Templin says: "We should always have a box. The box can evolve and improve, but the concept of a box will not change." That may mean the current xB sticks around as a heritage model and will not become the redesigned bB seen at the 2005 Tokyo show. A new powertrain is scheduled to come in spring 2008 for the 2009 model year.
xD: Do not be confused by the stretched version of the current xB that has been snapped by spy photographers. That vehicle is a mule for a future Scion vehicle, based on the Corolla platform with more horsepower. The xD likely will be a variation on the Toyota Matrix theme. It will arrive in the 2008 model year. Scion has applied for a trademark on the xD name.
