The 2011 tC rides on a new platform with a lower ride height than its predecessor. Suspension is via MacPherson struts in front and double wishbones in the rear. Eighteen-inch alloy rims and larger brakes are part of the package, along with a new electronic power steering. Under the new sheet metal, the tC sports a roomier cockpit with new sport bucket seats, redesigned instrument cluster, three-spoke steering wheel, standard panoramic moonroof and an AM/FM/CD/USB audio system with eight speakers and steering-wheel-mounted controls.
Among the standard safety features for 2011 are ABS, stability and traction control, brake assist and electronic brakeforce distribution, as well as active front headrests and eight airbags.
Pricing starts from $18,275 when equipped with a manual transmission, and $19,275 when equipped with an automatic transmission.The delivery, processing and handling (DPH) fee for all Scion models is $720 and is not included in the MSRP.

Nonetheless, the tC does see a round of updates for 2011, not the least of which is a revised suspension. The front suspension remains MacPherson struts, but the rear gains a control arm and sits a touch lower now. Wider 18-inch wheels are standard.
The four-cylinder beneath the tC’s hood is upgraded, too. Now displacing 2.5 liters, it has variable timing on both intake and exhaust camshafts and bumps output 19 hp higher than the engine it replaces, for a total of 180. The transmissions are both new, and include a six-speed manual (that’s one more forward gear than the previous car) and a six-speed automatic. In addition to two extra forward ratios, the automatic also adds manual control, which was absent before.
