Exterior
Apperance is every thing
From the aggressive glare of the Projector Headlamps to the menacing look of the optional rear spoiler,–tC exudes strength. Performance-tuned and packed with essentials like 18″ Alloys and a Panoramic Glass Power Moonroof, tC is designed to make a bold statement with a full line of styling and performance upgrades.
Panoramic Glass Power Moonroof
Expand your outlook. tC’s Panoramic Glass Power Moonroof stands apart as the first of its kind in the segment. Whether it’s a sunny day or a starry night, tC delivers a great view.
Wheels and Tires
Power that moves. Wide, low profile tires and standard 18″ alloys with locking wheel nuts help you stand out in a crowdwhile improving tC’s handling and sporty feel.
Chrome Exhaust Tip
Announce your arrival. tC’s fully tuned exhaust system provides the growl and the Chrome Exhaust Tip is the finishing touch.
Styling
tC’s aggressive yet sophisticated shape was inspired by the Scion Fuse concept vehicle. Think of it less as a vehicle you drive and more as a statement you make.
Customize
You bring the attitude. We’ll bring the accessories. Your mono-spec tC comes well equipped and a wide range of TRD and Scion exterior accessories can help you turn it into your personal canvas.
Interior
Inside job
Versatile and spacious—with room for five. tC’s sport fastback style looks great while providing ample room for passengers and gear. There’s more head and legroom in the back than tC’s closest competitors. Rear seats recline up to 45 degrees for additional comfort. Plus, the 60/40 Split-Fold functionality creates a nearly flat cargo deck to provide 417 L of cargo space.
Front Seats
Robust bolsters on the front bucket seats help keep the driver firmly in the seat when it comes to hard cornering. A one-lever Walk-in feature makes the front seat jump forward, making it fast and easy to pick up friends along the way.
Customize
Pick. Choose. Personalize. Create a tC that is distinctly you by adding accessories like XM® Satellite Radio and a Premium Alpine Audio System.

Safety
Play safe

All of these systems—and more—are part of Scion’s Star Safety System™.
Active Front Headrests
tC’s Active Front Headrests mitigate impact to the occupant’s neck area, reducing injuries such as whiplash that can occur during a rear-end collision.
