Scion concept to debut in NY dubbed 'Fuse'
The boys and girls over
at Inside Line managed to come across a few extra details on Scion’s concept bound for a debut at the upcoming NY
auto show. The concept will be called the ‘Fuse’ and will feature a “chopped top and a short
snout”, although we’re not supposed to infer that these will be part of Scion’s future design
language.The concept’s requisite fanciful touch will be turn signals embedded in the wheels. Though many comments on our initial post assumed the Fuse would be the tC’s replacement, it appears that this is not the case and rather Scion designers were let loose on a blank canvas.

Turn signals in the wheels? Maybe it's the green beer, but that actually sounds like a good idea.

At the auto shows Scion has been giving away a Scion magazine that has an xA with a chopped top. They even have a refrigerator magnet of it. The xA has trailed the other 2 models in sales. It could be an attempt to jazz up that model.

The only thing that could jazz up an XA would be a more powerful engine and all wheel drive. or a turbo at the least. That thing is dog ugly.

Sounds interesting...maybe a real successor to the Celica finally.
