2011 | 2dr Hatch 180-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
A fastback car with actual usable back seats! Coupes tend to have cramped back setas, but in this case it is very comfortable sitting in the back for extended periods of time. see full Scion tC review |

Not enough room for an adult in the rear seat. I am short and I still found the rear seat not really wide enough. see full Scion xD review |
