Price point doesn't expressly dictate how much R&D they dedicate into it, that's too simplistic of an argument. There's also volume of sales, profit margin per car, integration of R&D technology across other models and platforms... in short, you can't say how much or little R&D is going into this car.
You know, I actually like this concept less. The front is too "snouty" for a lack of better word. Fortunately, there's no way that pointy front would make it to production, given how pedestrian-unfriendly it is. I don't mind the car being Scion, but I do mind that giant SCION scrawled on the back. Taillights aren't as clean as the original or as exciting as the second concept.
I like how they killed the side vent, but those front wheel arches seem like overkill.
