The Scion xB still looks like a shoebox, but give
credit to Scion for not giving up on this model when so many others would have.
On the contrary, Scion’s actually continuing to build up the xB with debut of
the Release Series 10.0, a specially designed xB that comes with a whole new
list of modern technologies.
Just 1,500 limited edition models will feature
Electric Quartz paint, a pearl white with subtle green highlights. Green
highlighting continues inside the xB with custom colored seats with accent
stitching and door inserts. The tech-driven look is carried further with three
unique projections: a Scion logo from the rear bumper to the ground, “xB RS
10.0” on the driver’s side interior carpet and the sequential number of the
specific vehicle projected onto the passenger side floor.
Enhancing the in-car technology, the xB Release
Series 10.0 will come standard with a backup camera and conductive wireless
conductive charging. The standard Scion Display Audio System in all 2014 Scion
models features a 6.1-inch LCD touchscreen, AM/FM/CD/HD Radio™ technology,
hands-free phone capability, music streaming via Bluetooth® wireless technology
and AUX/USB port with iPod® connectivity.
The xB RS 10.0 model carry a manufacturer’s
suggested retail price (MSRP) of US$ 20,420, available with an automatic
transmission only. The price excludes the delivery, processing and handling
(DPH) fee of US$ 755. The vehicles will be available in dealerships this summer.
