Scion tC Second generation dimensions 2010–2016

The Scion tC Second generation (2010–2016) is 442 cm long, 179.6 cm wide and 141.5 cm tall, with a 270 cm wheelbase. That makes it about 25 cm shorter than the average liftback in our guide (467 cm across 48 versions). In size it is closest to the Audi A3 Sedan (2012, same length), the Mercedes-Benz A-Class 5-door hatchback (2018, same length) and the BMW 2 Series (2013, 1.2 cm longer).

Will it fit my garage?

Assumes a UK standard parking bay of 4.8 × 2.4 m and a typical UK single garage of 4.8 × 2.4 m inside (2.1 m high) with a 7 ft × 6 ft 6 in (213 × 198 cm) up-and-over door. Where we have no width-with-mirrors figure we add 20 cm to the body width. “Comfortably” leaves about 60 cm to walk round and open a door; “tight” means it goes in but getting out is awkward. Garages and bays vary a lot — measure yours and use the garage fit checker. For guidance only.
