Toyota used the Chicago Auto Show today to launch the 2008 Scion xB. The xB was first introduced in early 2003 for the 2004 model year and its boxy shape became iconic to the Scion brand. "We've stated in the past that we'll probably always have a box in the Scion lineup, but our owners told us they wanted a bigger box," said Mark Templin, Scion vice president. "They talk, we listen and we responded with a bigger and better xB." More powerful than its predecessor, the all-new xB is equipped with a 2.4 L dual overhead-cam four-cylinder engine with Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i), the same engine found on the tC. The engine produces 158 horsepower, 55 more than the previous generation. Customers will have a choice of either a five-speed manual transmission or a four-speed automatic with sequential shifting, a first for automatic four-speeds in the Scion or Toyota line-up.
