Scion tC by Mr.choppers - CC-BY-SA-4.0 Scion, a spinoff brand of none other than Toyota, was established in 2002 to attract Generation Y consumers. The brand was designed to offer a fresh and distinctive approach to car manufacturing, focusing on customization, affordability, and a unique buying experience. Scion’s lineup, characterized by its compact, stylish, and versatile vehicles, was designed to meet the diverse needs of youth consumers. Unfortunately, the brand was altogether axed in 2016, primarily due to poor sales performance.
