Having known and respected for affordable rear-wheel-drive sporty coupe, Toyota, along with the rest of the industry, the layout largely abandoned in favor of more fuel-efficient and the packaging front-drive car. It finally ended, through its Scion and Subaru brand, with the introduction of 2013 FR-S and BRZ.
The FR-S is the fruit of a joint project with Subaru, and though each version using a different badge, they are all basically the same car.
There are some differences in style, and the FR-S gets a slightly different tone suspension (better, in our opinion) the back, but all share the same proportions classic coupe. The FR-S gets ahead of itself and look at the back, with a bumper set up to show the intake curved, rectangular grille opening, and on the back, dual-outlet exhaust with aerodynamic features seen very light. Inside, the Scion FR-S 2013 basic, but well-executed. Modern style, with a fresh look provided by carbon-textured accents and matte black plastic.
Under the hood lies a 2.0-liter Boxer flat four-cylinder engine rated at 200 horsepower. Most of the power comes high in the rev range, leaving the lower and mid-range feels a bit anemic. After it was over and running, however, the FR-S is a willing companion. A voice pipes allows the intake noise tuned version of the car, but there is almost no exhaust noise to be heard.
Behind the wheel, 2013 Scion FR-S is a balanced, nimble sports car, light weight cornering manufacture joy. Steering is electric power assist system, which is lethal to feel a bit, but it was not enough to get on the road enjoying the car. Brakes are progressive and strong, with little in the way of fading or overheating noted even after a few laps on the track. Overall balance is very neutral, with the slope in the direction of rotation is ready when needed.
The cabin of the 2013 FR-S is comfortable and spacious - for the front seat occupants. The back seat is very short on leg room, and a bit short on headroom, but will cater for children or smaller adults. The cargo area consisting of a reasonably sized trunk, or, with the rear seats folded, a large flat load bay that can accept a few things - including a full four wheel and tire, toolbox, and a helmet, according to Scion.
As for features, the 2013 Scion FR-S comes with a basic specification standard for all models. The main choice is between manual or automatic transmission - from there, all options can be added a la carte. Standard equipment is not bad for the price starting at $ 25,000, with Bluetooth, USB, keyless entry, and automatic climate control are all included. Optional upgrades include a bespoke premium system application compatibility and audio with 5.8-inch touch screen LCD display, plus a variety of accessories appearance. Some time after the launch, various performance accessories will also be available.
Neither NHTSA nor the IIHS has crash-tested the 2013 Scion FR-S, but the basics of modern safety equipment is covered, with six airbags, anti-lock brakes, stability control, and traction control. Traction and stability control system offers a sport mode that allows more spirited driving while still providing a safety net.
