2013 Scion FR-S Brings the SPORT
Back to the CAR
• Compact rear-wheel
drive sports car makes world debut
• Low center of gravity and lightweight design achieves a "Pure
Balance"¨
• World's first boxer engine to utilize Toyota¡¦s D4-S direct
and port injection system
Los Angeles ¡V November
30, 2011 ¡V Scion tonight unveiled its 2013 FR-S compact rear-wheel
drive sports car to a crowd of eager car enthusiasts. The
high-performance coupe is the fifth model to join the Scion family
and will go on sale in the spring of 2012.
The FR-S, which stands
for Front-engine, Rear-wheel drive, Sport; is Scion¡¦s definition of
an authentic rear-wheel-drive sports car with exceptionally balanced
performance and handling, compelling style, flexible utility and
surprising MPG.
"Serving as a laboratory
for Toyota, Scion is always experimenting with new things,¨ said
Jack Hollis, Scion vice president. "The brand is iconic with the xB,
adrenalized by the tC, and groundbreaking with the iQ. The FR-S will
no doubt serve as the halo car, expanding Scion into a new dimension
of driving performance.¨
The FR-S is a true
"scion,¨ born into a lengthy history of Toyota performance cars and
motorsports. The sports car is most inspired by the AE86 generation
of the Corolla, better known as the Hachi-Roku, meaning "8-6¨ in
Japanese. The front-engine, rear-wheel-drive coupe was lightweight
and well balanced, making it a solid choice for driving enthusiasts.
Inspired by the AE86,
the FR-S is designed around the core goal of achieving, Pure
Balance.¡¨ The balance begins with the strategic use of the world¡¦s
only flat boxer engine in a front-engine, rear-wheel drive
configuration. The engine's compact size and flat shape allow it to
be mounted mid-ship and extremely low, giving the car a dynamically
favorable front-to-rear weight ratio of 53:47 and a low center of
gravity comparable to some exotic supercars.
The FR-S's 2.0-liter,
naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine is the result of a joint
development between Toyota and Subaru. The partnership begins by
combining Subaru's newly developed horizontally opposed engine and
Toyota's cutting edge D-4S injection system that incorporates both
direct and port injection. The D-4S system, partnered with a high
12.5:1 compression ratio, results in an impressive 200 horsepower
and 151 pound-feet of torque.
"We all know that it's
not hard to make horsepower and torque, but it is hard to do all
that and still achieve impressive fuel economy,¨ Hollis said. "The
FR-S accomplishes all three.¨ The flat-four mates with either a
six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic transmission. The manual
offers quick, precise shifts with a short-throw; while the automatic
transmission features aggressive up shifts and sporty rev-matched
down shifts that are initiated by steering-wheel-mounted paddle
shifters. Power is transferred to the pavement via a limited-slip
differential.
The idea of "Pure
Balance¨ is further realized by the FR-S's lightweight design and
compact size. The combination allows the car to be quick and nimble
into and out of corners, with dynamic maneuverability and confident
handling. The coupe's weight is kept to a minimum by utilizing an
aluminum hood, a solid roof, and by featuring a trunk design instead
of a hatchback.
The FR-S's low weight is matched with a dynamically tuned suspension
setup consisting of MacPherson struts up front and a double wishbone
system in the rear. Lightweight 17-inch alloy wheels and ventilated
disc brakes are on all four corners.
The fierce exterior of
the FR-S is a solid reflection of its inner power. The profile,
inspired by the Toyota 2000GT, reveals a hood and roof-line that is
remarkably sleek and low, giving it an aerodynamic shape that
channels air cleanly over to the top. The low stance continues to
exaggerate the coupe¡¦s menacing face, which is made up of sharp
lines, a wide mouth and angular headlights. The aggressive front
fenders protrude upward and boast the iconic "86" piston emblem,
which highlights the car¡¦s AE86 heritage as well as its unique new
boxer engine. The rear fascia sits low and wide, with aerodynamic
lower treatments that surround the sporty dual exhaust system. LEDs
illuminate the edgy taillights, while center-mounted backup lights
finish the muscular design.
The FR-S¡¦s interior
features a 2+2 seating configuration that is designed with both form
and function in mind. The front seats are mounted extremely low and
are comfortable yet assertive, while the rear seat folds down flat,
creating flexible space. The large center-mounted tachometer is the
focus of the three-gauge cluster, keeping the driver informed of the
engine¡¦s vitals. Speed is monitored by both digital and analog
gauges.
