i've talked to some people and it is true that the new bB in japan will be released like that, but as far as the US market is concerned, Scion is supposedly planning on a larger chassis car for the xB... something more SUV-ish i guess... and also will phase out the xA in the next few years (aww man.... )

tC... yeah... no problem selling those....

Man, if you're angry because he posted this in the "News" section, you've really got other problems you need to deal with. Why do you care where it's posted? Since you seem to know all, where your majesty would you like it posted? As far as "using the search function" most of us do however it's not the most friendly of systems.

it should be in either all other vehicles or off topic... how in the hell does his post have anyhitng to do with news? and that vehicle has already been posted in the news section anyways... as a legit news post... now what? wanna ask any more stupid questions?

he says it right there... this isnt a news topic... its a DISCUSSION topic... he wants to discuss the possibility of this vehicle coming to america as a small scion suv

i care bc people need to start looking around... seeing whats up... and do a lil research b4 they post topics... and make sure the topics are in the right place

yeah the search does have a few issues... but it does work... he woulda just needed to put in "be-go" in the top search bar and the original news post about this vehicle would have came right up... then he coulda read about it... and made a post in the other vehices forum asking what others think of a scion suv based off it

The news is that the new Scion models will share engine drivetrains and platform with the current tC. So the new xB will have a 2.4L 4 cyl that everyone can play with. I like the idea and it should help keep the costs down unless the want to reuse the bB for the US. The xA was based on the Yaris and that is the Echo replacement vehicle. So I doubt Toyota will share a vehicle between both companies.( Scion and Toyota).

i dont see any of that in the first post

i dont see anything regarding any of the "authorized posts" in his first post here

The News is that this Vehicle would be sold as the TOYOTA RUSH in japan... does that make your majesty happy?
I didnt see the need for two separate posts to ask the board membes what they think of it as a scion.

FYI be.go is the same (hijo de la chingada) name i was typing in the search

........pinche mayate

none of those cars would be scions, yes its true toyota plans to build and produce a car to compete with the wrx, however, not the STi. Ironically, i hear subaru is helping Toyota design a awd drivetrain for one of their motors not yet released.

Also, the Xb will not have a 2.4l, a 1.8l is a maybe but as far as Toyota interviews go with corp, they plan to stick with the 1nz 1.5l.

If that is in fact the case, Toyota is headed the right way since Subaru has the AWD system down to a science. Thanks to Suby for helping them out...

[quote="YELOSUB"]Thats what i read in a artical last year, so i'm assuming its true. And subaru is the master of awd basically, they didn't really invent awd but they pretty much improved it in every since imo.

It is this thing?

gookgeek

Can't edit my post!!!

But yeah... that car is HOT!!!

killerxromances

Yes, thats the current design they are thinking of. They also have a regular sedan they also might consider. But the hood scoop was only designed for prototype, they don't expect it to be there on production if it sets sail.

I also have heard the awd might have 240-250hp. So its something to definitely look for.

killerxromances

One thing i would like Toyota to do, is design an awd line. awd hatchback like above, regular sedan, then a two door awd car or hatch..all under $25,000 for base prices. They would sell like crazy providing there was enough hp to power it, since awd drivetrains rob the most hp through its crank-to-wheel journey. But, 200-250hp awd car is perfect, and a good platform to start with if its the right motor.

I don't know if they expect the awd toyota to hit sales here. The artical i read last year was based in europe so i don't know if Toyota plans to release this subaru inspired toyota here. They should, it would sale. They might start it oversea's and work its way over here for a 2009 model possibly. Last i heard was they plan to hit production for 2008, but could hit streets as early as mid 07'.

Ok kids... all fighting aside...

This isn't really "news" and there isn't any sort of press release or news link or article or anything like that... so it doesn't really belong here. Moving to Other Vehicles. Speculation can continue there.

And yes... that blue thing a couple posts up is HOT - I would totally rock that.

that blue toyota would be hot if it wasent a four door!


oh and might i just squeez in a... I TOLD YOU SO!!!
