What is the Toyota news? Looks like just a review to me.

Please clarify otherwise, I will have to move it out of here since it is in the wrong section.


Edit: MOVED!

Click on the link with the picture and it takes you to the review.

p.s. They keep referring to what seems to be a 2009 Matrix XRS as 'XR'. LOL.

You probably have the XR.

Well, as far as I know the new 10th Gen XRS has the Camry 2.4 Liter engine while the XR has the 1.8 Liter dual VVT-i engine. The model in that review is the 2.4 liter Matrix (as the review says), but they keep referring to it as XR.

No, I think the XR is the Canadian equivalent to the S with the 2.4 and the 1.8 is only in the base model.
