Scion tC — a compact hatchback that’s football‑sized, fun to drive, and still a hot topic for buyers who love a car that looks more like a comic‑book hero than a sedan. The most common year on the market today is early‑2007, and that generation makes the line of cited specs and pricing data the most relevant for prospective buyers. If you’re wondering about the *Scion tC price* ranges, your best bet is to compare the generic categories that car‑dealer sheets and online listings share: new, pre‑owned, and certified‑used. --- ### Core Technical Specifications

--- ### Depreciation Insight A vital question for any used‑car shopper is how much value a vehicle will lose over time. *Scion tC depreciation* follows a predictable curve: the car typically loses 15‑20 % of its value in the first year after purchase, and then about 20‑25 % each following year for the next 2‑3 years. After five years, the 2007 Scion tC can expect to have depreciated roughly 60‑65 % of its original price. That means a car that started at $16,000 could sit anywhere $5,400–$6,400 on a buy‑here‑pay‑here lot today – a range many people find comfortable for a budget-friendly hatchback. Here’s a quick reference to the typical depreciation path:

• Year 0‑1: – 15 % to 20 %
• Year 2: – 20 % to 25 %
• Year 3: – 15 % to 20 %
• Year 4: – 10 % to 15 %
• Year 5+: – 8 % to 12 % annually

This curve is an estimate and will vary by maintenance, mileage, regional demand, and market conditions. If you’re asking *what is a 2007 Scion tC worth*, look at the sold‑price history in your local market; the national average for a clean, 80‑k‑mile 2007 model currently lies in the $5,200–$6,000 range depending on condition. --- ### Market Position The 2007 Scion tC falls into the compact‑car segment infused with a touch of sport‑scariness. It’s popular among young professionals and small families that need versatility without the bulk of a minivan. Its engine is mild‑turbo but still quick enough for spirited drives on the interstate, while the interior styling sits neatly between mass‑produced Toyota models and more niche imports. In a world where fuel‑economy and brand trust matter, the Scion name—once famous for offering “just a vehicle and great value”—still carries that legacy. --- ### Comparison Context When compared to similar vehicles, the 2007 Scion tC remains competitive on price while offering more personal flair than the average Japanese compact. If you’re considering a Corolla hatchback or a Honda Fit, the Scion typically scores slightly higher in head‑turning styling and its rear‑seat cargo space can hold an extra a few more items.
