Drivers of pretty much any size can find a suitable driving position, and the low-profile hood allows an expansive view of the road ahead. Trunk space is minuscule at 6.9 cubic feet, although folding down the mostly useless rear seat expands cargo-carrying abilities considerably. In the backseat, legroom is close to nil, heads bob perilously near to the rear glass and the guts tunnel impedes hiproom. Scion has updated the touchscreen-based speakers this season, so there's probably less of grounds in 2021 to choose the upgraded BeSpoke system if you really would like navigation and smartphone app integration. The FR-S's front seats are comfortable for long-distance trips while providing firm support for hard driving.  
  
The Scion FR-S is really a Scion-badged version of the Toyota 86 and Subaru BRZ 2+2 sports coupe sold in the United States of America and Canada. Originally, the FR-S had no trim levels and all FR-S variants were offered with Scion's BeSpoke stereo system. The Scion FR-S, exclusive to the United States and Canada, has its name based on an explanation of its platform: Front-engine, Scion FRS-S Rear-wheel-drive, Sport.  
  
Touches of silver-tone trim round the previously all-black interior help reduce the Scion FR-S a bit. It's an environment that emphasizes driving, punctuated only by way of a blend of Toyota and Subaru switchgear and materials. Scion has made few concessions to create or luxury in the 2016 FR-S cabin. The FR-S's cockpit looks only a little bare compared with other compact sports cars in its cost range, yet it also feels like a genuine back-to-basics driver's car.  
  
Instead, there's numerous dealer-installed accessories such as for example foglights, performance parts and a premium BeSpoke speakers with navigation, additional smartphone app integration and Internet radio. The 2016 Scion FR-S gets a rearview camera, a brand new 7-inch touchscreen and silver interior trim. Apart from exterior color and transmission choices, Scion doesn't offer any factory alternatives for the FR-S.  
  
Instead, you will find numerous accessories installed by dealers, like a high-end BeSpoke audio system with fog lights, performance parts and navigation, integration of additional smartphone apps, and Internet radio. An eight-speaker speakers with a 7-inch touch screen, voice commands, HD radio, AHA radio, auxiliary audio jack and USB interface. The standard 2022 Scion FR-S equipment includes 17-inch alloy wheels, automatic headlights, air conditioning, full-power accessories, height-adjustable driver's seat, flexible and telescopic leather tyre, cruise control, rear camera, Bluetooth phone and audio. The Scion FR-S features a rear camera, a fresh 7-inch touchscreen display and a gold interior. The 2022 Scion FRS is a sports coupe comes in one trim level. Apart from the exterior color and transmission options, the Scion doesn't offer factory alternatives for the FR-S.  
  
In government crash tests, the Scion FR-S received five out of five stars for overall crash protection, with four stars for total frontal crash protection and five stars for total side impact safety. Standard safety features on the 2022 Scion FR-S include antilock brakes, traction and stability control, front seat side airbags and full-length side curtain airbags. The Scion FRS-S received the second-highest score of "Acceptable" in the small-overlap frontal-offset test. In Edmunds brake testing, a Scion FR-S came to an end from 60 mph in 117 feet. That is clearly a respectable distance, but somewhat more than average for a car with summer tires. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety awarded it the best possible rating of "Good" in the moderate-overlap frontal-offset, side-impact, roof-strength and head restraint tests.  
  
The automatic works on the traditional wet torque converter design, but its software has been engineered to mimic the response of a dual-clutch gearbox. The automatic transmission uses three different modes: Scion FRS-S Sport, Snow, and Normal. A torque sensing limited slip differential is standard of all models. Scion FRS 2022 estimates performance figures of 0-60 mph in 7.4 seconds, while a premier speed of 145 mph (233 km/h) was tested.  
  
We haven't tested an FR-S with the automatic, but a not exactly identical Subaru BRZ equipped with the automatic transmission clocked a slower, 7.9-second 0-60 time. You are able to mate it to either the standard six-speed manual transmission or the optional six-speed automatic with paddle shifters and rev-matched downshifts. The six-speed manual 2016 FR-S returns a good EPA estimate of 25 mpg combined (22 city/30 highway), while the automatic achieves an impressive 28 mpg combined (25/34). In testing, a manual-equipped Scion FR-S sprinted from zero to 60 mph in 6.5 seconds -- quick, although not as fast as more powerful but heavier sport coupes. A 2.0-liter horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine generating 200 hp and 151 pound-feet of torque is the only power plant for the Scion FRS.  
  
In testing, the 2022 FRS with a submachine gun, but the almost identical Subaru BRZ designed with a submachine gearbox was slower, running 0-60 times in 7.9 seconds. Buyer may add it to a regular six-speed gearbox or even to an exercise shifter with a six-speed automatic and the corresponding down shifts. Through the test, the manually equipped Scion FR-S accelerated from zero to 60 mph in 6.5 seconds faster, but better, but like heavier sports coupes. The six-speed manual Scion FRS returns a good EPA rating for 25 mpg (22 city / 30 highway) and automatically achieves an extraordinary 28 mpg (25/34) result. The 2.0-liter horizontally four-cylinder engine, which produces 200 horsepower and 151 pound-feet of torque, is the only real power plant for Scion FRS-S the Scion FRS-S FRS.
