2010 Scion xD User Reviews

Pros

Excellent fuel economy, mini-suv, great price

Cons

road noise, small gas tank, other small things...

Purchased As New

I am very happy with my purchase. I have to agree that the first review doesn't get it... Are you actually comparing a $15K vehicle with a rally car? Also, I average 32 MPG without trying... If I try, it's 37.
Some things Toyota/Scion could improve on besides the cons above...
The rear wiper doesn't have an intermittent setting so it's either on or off. It never rains hard enough to need a rear wiper on constantly.
I miss a few things from my old car but my old car was an Audi A4... This little guy is great for the money!...read morehide

Pros

Excellent gas mileage, good acceleration

Cons

No center arm rest - one can be purchased

Purchased As New

Main reason for purchasing was that the XD has Toyota quality. The price is great. It has four doors which is nice for transporting children. The acceleration is much better than expected. Recently went on a 200 mile trip and averaged 35+ miles per gallon. Great car!!

Pros

Good on gas, reliable and built well. Very cool looking car

Cons

Some road noise but to be expected for this size car. No center arm rest.

Purchased As New

I find that this car has plenty of power and acceleration, nice headroom. I am 6'4" and fit well in this vehical. I upgraded to the 18" wheels and feel that helps with the road noise. Not much storage space, the owners manual takes up almost the entire glove box. For the price, an excellent value and car!...read morehide

Pros

reliable, built in japan, very cool look and good on gas

Cons

ride can be a little rough and can hear cabin noise; Blue paint scratches real easy

Purchased As New

Overall I like the car. It has toyota quality and the set pricing makes it fast and easy to buy. The ground clearence is about an inch higher than a car so it has that suv feel which i like. Thefirst reviewer that gave this car a poor rating did you test drive this car for more than 2 min? Did you get it up to highway speeds? Did you research the features and realized it only has like a 11 gal gas tank so you be at the gas station more due to the smaller gas tank? Also how are you driving this car, did you know that fuel economy is partly on the driver style of driving? I think the car is great overall. My only gripe is the paint, it tends to scratch real easy, its the Blue color....read morehide

Pros

Hate it!

Cons

Uncomfortable for larger drivers

Purchased As New

There are issues, no power when a.c. is on, small gas tank; I'm always at the pump. my other choice was the VW Golf, I realize now that the VW Golf would have been better buy!
Mileage estimate off.I did a 24 hour test drive and found the mileage around town to be far less than the EPA estimate. Most reviewers indicate getting mileage as good or better than EPA estimates... Don't believe it. Plan on around 20 around town and maybe 25 on the road. I wasn't impressed with the styling, It feels responsive to someone with little experience in real rally race handling, but it actually drives like a dog....read morehide
