Scion has just released the first images and details of the 2013 xB facelift, which receives numerous enhancements to both its exterior and interior.
According to the Japanese carmaker, the updated xB is available two new exterior colors, Absolutely Red and Nautical Blue Metallic, replacing Stingray Metallic and Elusive Blue Metallic. It features a new front bumper, a glossy black lower grille, integrated LED lighting units and a black rear diffuser.
Interior changes include new seat fabric, light bronze metallic accents on panels, chrome accents on the air conditioner register and an optional BeSpoke audio system.
Power comes from a 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine which produces 158 hp and 219 Nm of torque. It is mated to a five-speed manual transmission or an optional four-speed automatic.
Set to go on sale in the United States early next year, the 2013 Scion xB has a starting price of $16,800 for the manual version and $17,750 for the automatic model.
