On the news they were talking about a street race that landed one kid dead and they mentioned a "toyota scion" being part of the race. But is it technically a Toyota Scion or would you call it just a Scion? I would think youd never hear TOYOTA SCION TC and that though Toyota owns Scion that its its own company.


can you help me clear this up

THanks

I think its just Scion, not Toyota Scion. Scion is its own brand, though it is owned by toyota. So it would just be a Scion TC. You dont hear people refering to 'GM Saturn Vue' or 'Chrysler Dodge Caravan'

Well, no. Its Lexus, its Scion, its Toyota. Scion and Lexus are divisions of Toyota, but its not Toyota Scion etc.

90% of the time the news doesnt know wtf they're talking about.

The media probably wanted to make it clear that it was another import involved in a street racing accident.

It's just Scion... Saying Toyota Scion is like saying Ford Mazda or GM Chevy.
