2009 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
1) Center console is too wide - not enough room for me to stretch out. 2) Seat can be raised and lowered (good) but at its lowest position it feels like the cushion leans down making me feel like my body slips forward. 3) Arm rest on door too high. see full Scion xB review |
