Basically the same drive-train and configuration, but what I heard is
that the Yaris is on a all new chassis while the Scion (xA,xB) are
slated for a re-do. What it will be is anyones guess. It'd be
interesting to see if they try to keep the Scion name fresh by
releasing an all new model, or simply tweak the Yaris and slap on a
Scion badge. If they do come out with an all new Scion model, hopefully
they can find it in their hart to appease us Canucks (from once again
getting the short end of the stick) by dropping the Corolla engine into
the Yaris.
