Scion TC 2009



Scion today announced the 2009 tC sports coupe, the best-selling vehicle in the Scion lineup. The car remains unchanged, and the tC Spec Package is discontinued.

The company is offering a Sporty Package distinguished by an upper mesh grille, lattice lower grille and projector-type low beam headlights with black trim in front, and tail lights similar in style to the headlights with round combination lamps.

A 2.4-liter double overhead-cam four cylinder engine with Variable Valve Timing with intelligence powers this CARB-certified Ultra Low Emission Vehicle to produce a punchy 161 hp. The tC features a five-speed manual transmission or an available electronically controlled four-speed automatic transmission.

The tC model is available in a choice of seven colors: Flint Mica, Super White, Black Sand Pearl, Classic Silver Metallic, Sizzling Crimson Mica, Wave Line Pearl and Nautical Blue Metallic. Exterior colors are complemented by a high-quality dark charcoal fabric interior.

2009 Scion tC Model Changes
For 2009, the sporty Scion tC carries over little changed from its restyling last year. 17-inch 6-spoke aluminum wheels are now standard, and the seat fabric has been updated.

2009 Scion tC Value
The 2009 Scion tC makes a strong appeal to young buyers, with its sporty yet economical performance and an appearance--inside and out--that feels more sophisticated than other vehicles in its price range. Many of its finer details, such as seating comfort and refinement are in a class above. And for those with a little extra money, some of the features and appearance cues of a luxury sport coupe can be added on.

2009 Scion tC Strengths
Value-for-money; superb front seats; sporty handling; wide range of standard features; customization options.
