What the specs mean
Its 2.4L 4-cylinder drives through a 5-speed manual. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Fuel use is rated 9.8 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 29 litres. In money, 1,000 km costs about $151.90 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,800 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Best uses
It suits people who want car handling with extra load space. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
Space, size and seats
As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. The trunk holds 623 litres by the EPA's count: bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
A longer test drive
Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent the xB for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.
Choosing the right one
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Within the 2013 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
Running costs
The EPA estimates US$2,800 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.19 in fuel.
