2013 Scion xB
The best-selling vehicles in the Scion brand will receive a lot of updates as 2013 is a mid-cycle point for the car. MSRP begins at $17,750 for the 2013 Scion xB with automatic transmission or $16,800 for the standard transmission. This is a $500 increase in both models (2.9% and 3.1%, respectively).
With this price increase comes a glut of now-standard features. A new front bumper with integrated LED accent lighting and rear bumper with black diffuser are now standard. Interior changes include light bronze metallic and chrome accents and a new seat fabric. BeSpoke Premium Audio is now available for the 2013 xB and two new colors have been added to the model option lineup.
Other Scion vehicles will see a 2013 bump as well. 2013 will see the iQ go up by $110 to $15,495 and the FR-S go up by $300 to $24,500 (MT) and $25,600 (AT), a 1.2% jump for this rear-wheel drive sports car.

The XB is dead after the Gen2 model is done. Toyota said there would be no more XB's after the Gen2 design(2008-) has run its course. There will not be a Gen3. But what a lot of folks seem to think is that 2012 is the last year of the XB and Toyota said nothing about when the XB's last year was. They could be making the XB2 for the next 5 years.
I think a lot of us assumed that because the XB2 is in the 5th year of production that 2012 is the last year of them. 5 years with a Toyota name plate having the same skin is odd as the Japanese seem to release a new version every 4 years(New every 4 years, revise every 2 years) But who knows maybe Toyota is pulling a GM and allowing the XB to run 6 or 8 years in the same body style??
I look forward to seeing a 2013 XB
Also notice how nothing was said about the Scion xD? this could mean the xD is staying the same in price OR that the xD is checking out and there will be no 2013
