2015 Scion tC

There are very few changes for 2015, as the tC just received its midlife refresh, but there are a few of note. The most important change is the addition of a paddle shifters on its automatic transmission, which gives the auto a sportier feel. Two new colors also make their way onto the options list for 2015.

Like all Scions, the tC does not have a pile of trim levels to choose from. In fact, it only has a single trim to choose from, and buyers can customize the sports coupe as they see fit. This a la carte option program allows buyers the opportunity to customize their car to suit their needs, but it does result in the MSRP shooting up rather quickly.

The tC has just a single engine available, and it is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder with 179 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 172 foot-pounds of torque at 4,100 rpm. Delivering the power to the front wheels is standard, six-speed manual transmission or an optional six-speed auto.

tC

Like most Scions, the tC is available only in as a customizable base vehicle, giving buyers the ability to build their model to suit their needs. As standard, the 2015 tC bases at $19,210 and comes standard with a six-speed manual transmission, electronic power steering, projector headlights with LED accent lights, 18-inch aluminum wheels, a panoramic sunroof, folding side-view mirrors with integrated LED repeaters, a chrome exhaust tip, a leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, power driver's seat with memory, and a 300-watt, AM/FM/CD Display Audio system with a 6.1-inch LCD touchscreen, Bluetooth audio streaming and hands-free phone, USB port and eight speakers. Buyers can opt to replace the manual transmission with the automatic, which features paddle shifters and Dynamic Rev Management, for an extra $1,150.
