RIP Boxy Scions (2002-2014)

IMG_0165-550x392

It's the end of an automotive era, as the Scion xB (as well as the milquetoast xD) are set to die by the year's end. In exchange, we're getting a couple of new, world market Toyotas to shore up Scion's lineup.

AutoGuide is reporting that two new additions will join the Scion lineup: first, Scion will get a version of the Toyota Auris, a hatchback that shares some mechanicals with the Toyota Corolla. One chief difference is the addition of an independent rear suspension, and our own Ronnie Schreiber had the chance to compare our Corolla with the Auris not long ago. With the Toyota Matrix set to die,

The second vehicle will be based on the new Mazda2/Toyota Yaris joint venture, but it will take the form of a conventional sedan and be built at Mazda's new Mexican factory.
