It's common for auto manufacturers to make the same model car, but sell it under different badges in different countries. Toyota owns Lexus, but until recently, you couldn't buy a Lexus in Japan. You could buy a Lexus car, but it had a Toyota badge on it.

I don't know what the heck that guy thinks with the first answer, but Toyota owns Scion and separated the brands because Toyota is marketed towards middle-aged buyers. So, they came up with Scion for the younger crowd.

The Scion xA and xB are based on the Toyota Echo platform - EXACT same engine, drive-train, suspension, etc. Extremely high quality and EXACTLY the same parts. And, the Scion tC is based on the Camry power-train - the rest of the underpinnings are different, but it's an excellent engine.
