When buyers are looking at a used Toyota, they often go for a Corolla or Camry. Yet many drivers forget about Toyota<\/a>‘s youth-oriented Scion<\/a> brand, which features a few vehicles that drivers might want to give a second look.<\/p>\n

Scion is usually identified with the boxy-looking xB, one of the first modern cars on the road that embraced a squared-off look. But drivers who aren’t fans of that aesthetic and are in the market for a used car might want to consider the xD.<\/p>\n

According to the Associated Press, buyers have continually overlooked the car, and it’s not clear why. The small five-door hatchback boasts more horsepower than its competitors in the segment and Consumer Reports recommended the car as eminently reliable. Still, despite acclaim that would make it a hit under other brands, the xD is Toyota’s slowest selling non-luxury car.<\/p>\n

The news source reports that the car is great for city driving, gets 30 mpg, and has a number of seat configurations that its major rivals do not.<\/p>\n
