The 2015 Scion xB Base 4-door Wagon 4A (automatic) is a boxy, roomy compact wagon that delivers more utility and driver-friendliness than many cars in its class. It trades sporty handling for space, practicality, and simplicity. Heres a detailed description of what it offers, how it drives, and what to keep in mind. Engine, Transmission & Performance Under the hood is a 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder engine producing about 158 horsepower and roughly 162 lb-ft of torque. The Base trim comes standard with a 5-speed manual, but the 4A tag indicates the automatic version (a 4-speed automatic). Performance off the line is adequategood for daily driving and city commutingbut the xB isnt especially quick at highway passing or aggressive acceleration. The automatic shifts are not particularly lively, and when under load or climbing hills it can feel a bit strained. Fuel Economy & Efficiency Fuel economy is fairly typical for this kind of compact wagon, especially with the automatic. Its rated around 22 mpg in city driving and 28 mpg on the highway. While not class-leading, those numbers are reasonable given its size, weight, and the relatively modest power output. Because of its shape and less aerodynamic profile, high speed fuel consumption tends to climb quickly. Maintenance tends to be straightforwardnothing exoticbut youll want to pay attention to things like transmission fluid service, regular oil changes, and keeping tires in good condition. Interior Space & Features One of the biggest strengths of the xB is its interior volume. It seats five, and both front and rear passengers benefit from generous headroom (thanks to its tall, upright roofline) and decent legroom. Visibility forward is good, though some drivers find that the thick rear pillars and high beltline can limit rearward visibility. Cargo space is a highlight: you get over 11 cu ft behind the rear seats, but folding those seats (which are 60/40 split) opens up nearly 70 cu ftcomparable to many compact SUVs. Storage bins and simple, utilitarian design pervade the cabin: expect durable cloth upholstery in the Base trim, basic air conditioning, power windows/locks, and a modest infotainment setup. Ride, Handling & Comfort The ride quality is functional: firm, but not punishing. Its more tuned for bump absorption and durability than sporty cornering. Steering is reasonably precise at low speeds, though you wont get much feedback or sharpness at higher speeds or in more winding roads. The suspension setup (front independent, rear more basic) does its job for city potholes and highway ripples, though body roll can be noticeable in tight curves. Noise insulation is mixedtheres some tire and wind noise at speed, but overall the cabin remains fairly civilized, especially for its class. Pros & Drawbacks Pros: Lots of interior space especially for headroom; the wagon shape gives more usable cargo volume when seats are down. Simple, reliable mechanicals. The powertrain is not overly complicated. Good value: you get a roomy, versatile vehicle without paying luxury prices. Practical features and durable materials mean this xB tends to age well when maintained. Drawbacks: Automatic transmission is sluggish and underpowered relative to competitors, especially for high-speed merging. Fuel economy is okay, but not impressive in highway or spirited driving. The interior materials are basic; theres less refinement than some rivals. Handling and steering arent sporty, and tall occupants may feel the effects of wind noise or chassis flex more acutely. Overall Impression The 2015 Scion xB Base 4A is an appealing choice for someone who values space, utility, and a straightforward ownership experience over sporty performance. If you frequently haul gear, need cargo flexibility, or want a roomy cabin in a compact footprint, this car delivers. It wont win drag races or deliver luxury finishes, but it does
