Used 2015 Scion tC for Sale

The 2015 Scion tC comes with standard stability control, 4-wheel anti-lock disc brakes and eight airbags (front, front-side, front-knee and full-length side-curtain). In government crash-testing, the tC scored a perfect five stars overall, including four stars for front impacts and five for side impacts. The independent Insurance Institute for Highway Safety gave the tC its top rating of Good in all crash-test categories except for the relatively new small-overlap front crash test, where the tC was deemed Acceptable (the second-best rating of four). Behind the Wheel In our interior evaluation, we deemed the tC model's front seats a welcome departure from Scion's ho-hum norm. The prominent side bolsters are clearly designed to hold you in place when the going gets twisty. The thick, leather-wrapped tilt-telescopic steering wheel has a wide range of adjustability, and it sports a race-car-style flat bottom that reminds us of an Audi TT. The tC's straightforward gauges feature an orange-illuminated tachometer and speedometer housed within separate hoods. The 3-dial climate controls couldn't be simpler, and the entire central control panel is canted toward the driver for a cool cockpitlike feel. We've seen some complaints about the tC's interior quality, but we respectfully disagree: The plastics may be hard to the touch, but they have distinctive graining, and the overall ambiance in the tC's cabin is hardly cheap. On the road, the tC is a solid introduction to the joy of driving. Thanks to standard stability control and an appetite for understeer, this Scion is highly unlikely to behave unpredictably. What it will do, though, is get the g-forces going in corners enough to whet a driver's appetite. At the same time, the tC has a civilized ride, and road noise isn't a problem by sport-coupe standards. We're fans.

2015 Honda Civic Si -- More focused on performance than the tC, the Civic Si is a little quicker if you wind it out to the redline. The tC has closed the gap considerably, though. 2015 Ford Fiesta ST -- It may be a 5-door hatchback, but the turbocharged ST is more fun than just about any 2-door car, and it's attractively priced. 2015 Kia Forte Koup -- The stylish Forte Koup offers a cool turbocharged engine that matches the Fiesta ST's power and easily bests the Scion's.
