Why should I also consider these?

With the departure of the Chrysler PT Cruiser and Chevrolet HHR, the Scion xB's old competition has given way to a new set of vehicles with slightly different missions and talents.

The Kia Soul's the closest in shape and size to the xB, and its kitschy styling is just the beginning of its charms, which include a very spacious interior, and this year, a new economy feature that boosts fuel economy by one mile per gallon.

The Kia Forte five-door is another alternative, one with less outright cargo space than the Soul or the xB.

You might also look at the expensive, sharp-handling MINI Cooper Clubman, which rivals the xB in size and accessories, though it's thousands of dollars higher in base price.

Finally, among the smallest of crossovers, there's the Hyundai Tucson, with a curvy new design language and gas mileage that's the equal of the xB's, with available all-wheel drive.

 
2012 Hyundai Tucson
One of the most improved crossovers, the 2012 Hyundai Tucson has size and value in its corner.
 
2012 Kia Soul
The name rings true: this Kia has a Soul, with fun road manners and tall-wagon practicality baked into its kicky shape.
 
2012 Kia Forte
The 2012 Kia Forte family of vehicles manages to feel more eager, comfortable, and sophisticated than its sticker price might suggest.
 
2012 MINI Cooper Clubman
More capacity, more practicality, and just as much sport and style, the 2012 MINI Cooper Clubman strikes a balance between family and fun.
