Decieving machine

I love my 2010 Scion XD. But honestly I"m a bit disappointed with some things. I love the standard features and the reliability factor and the way it looks. The thing I didn't like was the ride. I notice that when going over a man hole cover or any decent bumps in the road which we have a lot of here in NY's capital district. It's very jarring and annoying and makes me wonder if it is causing too much vibration to the chassis of the car causing premature wear. The other thing is that the cargo space even with the seats folded down is very limited compared to the fit and the Kia soul. I'm a musician, though easier now,I was able to fit more into my Saturn SL. Other than that, I like it.

It vibrates really bad no matter how bad the road is. I experience crazy spooky braking issues. I really like the fuel economy i get with this car. It really doesn't have much balls to get up and go(40mph-70mph). interior is pretty comfortable however a few more gauges would be nice. Cargo space is very limited but i think it is ok for normal everyday activities. The vehicle is low to the ground which make it very easy to get in or out.

Scion xD towers over competition

After months of researching and test driving most of the subcompacts in this price range, the Scion xD won by leaps and bounds. The exterior design is just funky enough for a hip 50+ driver and the interior design is thoughtful and practical enabling one to ignore the plethora of plastic. Mileage, even in the first week, exceeds all expectations. Love that standard equipment on the xD would mean thousands more on other makes/models. The road noise is a bit loud, but the standard 6-speaker Pioneer stereo covers that beautifully. The cargo capacity and split seat design for variety of space and ease of configuring is amazing.

Great Ride

I am a high mileage driver and opted for the 5 speed. I am getting on average 38mpg. I bought the car in mid May 2010 and have over 7000 miles logged. Technology is very useful. The usb connection allows my mobile phone to work hands free and also plug in hours of music with a thumb drive. The ride is sporty, precise, and fun. The cargo room is large enough for a trip to Home Depot and the sliding back seats are great for rear passenger room. I once owned a 1997 VW Golf 5 speed and this car is very similar and as much fun to drive as that was. If you are interested in a quality, affordable hatch back that allows lots of customization and fun driving, the XD is it.

Great Used Car

I had a 2010 Chevy HHR that was decent for the 6 years I had it. But after 220K, it was time to move on. I got a great deal on a Scion XD that had low miles and a manual transmission. I get great MPG (36-38 average combined), and the 5 speed stick makes driving back roads fun. Handles well, but is by no means sporty. I carry music gear with me, but have only had to fold down the rear seats a few times. Plenty of room, and the car is quite ergonomic. Driver's seat is a little cramped, and I had to do a lot of adjusting to find a position that was reasonably comfortable. After one year and 15K.I've only had to replace the tires. Very reliable.
