Original Scion tC Parts And Accessories

The Scion tC is proof that Toyota can make reliable sport compacts, too. Being a brand known for durable daily-driven vehicles, Toyota decided to make a splash with its Scion brand. When the Scion tC was released in 2004, it introduced an entirely new fixed base-vehicle pricing model. This enabled buyers to customize their models with dealer-installed accessories. There was also a Release Series (RS) Line composed of special-edition models, with the 2005 Scion tC RS debuting as Absolutely Red. Although it was briefly overtaken by the Scion xB, the tC became Scion’s best-selling model, comprising nearly half of all the brand’s sales.

With the Scion brand ending in 2016, so did the production of its most prolific vehicle. The 2016 Scion tC went out with a bang, offering a 2.5-liter inline-four engine rated at 179 hp and 172 pound-feet of torque. While this engine output might not be in the realm of performance cars, it’s more than adequate for the lightweight Scion tC. Also, front-wheel drive and a six-speed manual transmission are standard, with a six-speed automatic as optional.

What’s Special About the Scion tC?

Although Scion was a completely new sub-brand for Toyota, it made the Scion tC right the first time. The Scion tC came with good performance, reliability, and a sporty look. It’s often only the first two out of the three that Toyota nails with its offerings, but the Scion tC managed to check all three. The cabin experience is also a surprising delight. Inside the 2016 Scion, you get a panoramic sunroof, leather shift knob, 7-inch touchscreen, and an 8-speaker Pioneer sound system with HD radio. These features are great value for money, considering the tC’s low price point.

Is the Scion tC a Safe Car?

In government crash testing, the Scion tC received 5 out of 5 stars for overall crash protection. Top safety features for the 2016 Scion tC include stability and traction control, 4-wheel anti-lock brakes, tire pressure monitoring, front and rear head airbags, and emergency braking assist.
