To appeal to young drivers, Toyota launched a complete line of vehicles in 2004. This new brand is called
Scion. Their hope was to repeat the Lexus success story with the Scion. Don’t ask me what Scion means or where it comes from, but after only 4 years in the US,
you will have a hard time to find a teenager who doesn’t know or want a Scion.
