2008 New York Auto Show: The Scion Hako Pops Before Your Eyes

At first glance spectators are forced to make a Love it, or Hate it response when the new Scion Hako concept advances. That is just the response the Toyota designers of the Hako were looking for. Never ones to go with the flow Scion is looking to offer something up that is just as polarizing as the Prius… something that says “I Choose Scion.” Thus giving those who say “No Way In Hell am I driving THAT Scion” a chance to ridicule those who do, but that’s okay.

Fueled by a mix of the original Scion xB and xD design and with a flare for the American roadster heritage the Scion Hako has a commanding presence, particular in orange, for a car of its stature. Measuring in at 145.7 inches in length storage for the Hako should be rather easy to come by. In fact it might fit comfortably on most homes patio.

Filling the interior with plenty of gadgetry is sure to impress the crowd, but if this pint-sized clown car (said with honest affection… i kid, i kid) is truly aimed for production then give me a better hint at what we can truly expect. Without much information in the way of specifications Scion has left us with nothing but an intriguing and polarizing design that we are sure to fill with our own speculation, and maybe that is just what they were after.
