The 2009 Scion xD for buyers

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2009 Scion xD for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before you buy the 2009 Scion xD, see the figures and the checks worth doing.

Recalls and complaints

NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 23 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, vehicle speed control and engine; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.

What the figures tell you

Its 1.8L 4-cylinder drives through a 5-speed manual. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

It is rated at 8.1 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 24 litres. That works out to about $12.56 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,300 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

Who it is for

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.

Room inside

Being a small car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. Its 311 litre trunk is enough for about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Rent it for a week first

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent the xD for a week and see how it fits your life.

Picking a year and a trim

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Within the 2009 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.

The cost of driving it

The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $125.60 at our price setting. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.56 in fuel.

Ask us

Tell us the car you are considering, and we will help where we can.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2009 Scion xD from us first.
