Scion xB for Sale

Edmunds' Expert Review

by the Edmunds Experts

Pros

Massive interior for its size, unusual mini-truck styling, long list of standard equipment, comes with standard stability control, handles well for a budget-priced vehicle.

Cons

The cool stuff costs extra, modest passing power with automatic transmission, can't get xA's side airbags.

What’s new

No changes for the ultrahip 2005 Scion xB, other than nationwide availability.

Edmunds says

The 2005 Scion xB looks like nothing else on the market and it can haul serious amounts of people and cargo. A must-drive if you're light on cash but don't travel light.

2005 Scion xB 4dr Wagon (1.5L 4cyl 4A)

My scion was just totaled after 8 years of ownership. I loved it so much I felt I needed to review it for others to know. I bought it as a salvage in 06 with 16k miles on it and I put 170k miles on it. I did do some routine maintenance but it wasn't super consistent and definitely not on time. I never had a single mechanical problem with it other than replacing some simple belts once. …

2005 Scion xB 4dr Wagon (1.5L 4cyl 5M)

Bought this car brand new in 2005. has about 260,000 on it now. bought it because I have three sons over 6 feet tall and this seemed to be the only car at the time that could easily accommodate the height of all us in both the front and rear seats without being crowded. repairs on this car are extremely minimum...I have replaced the water pump, rear wheel bearing, climate control …

Meets or exceeds all expectations

2005 Scion xB 4dr Wagon (1.5L 4cyl 4A)

I wanted a commuter car and got the xB. It had 20k on it when I bought it. I've put 60k on it. Had a salvage title. It does everything I wanted it to and more. I'm not too diligent about maintenance but it's still rock-solid reliable. Spacious cabin room and very easy for the 3 kids to get in and out of. Not perfect, but just fine driving the occasional 200 mile trip to visit …

250,000 miles and still going.
