- Aerodynamic features
- Toyota's D4-S fuel injection system
- Suspension
- Space & Utility

The information below is the same info as in the leaked scans at the bottom of this post, but I included only the most important information to make things easier.


FR-S CENTER OF GRAVITY:

FT86, BRZ, FR-S Center of gravity height: 460mm

Other Vehicles:

LFA: 445mm
Ferrari 360: 447mm
Porsche Cayman: 482mm
GT-R: 495mm
Lancer Evo: 509mm
WRX STi: 534mm

Ultra-low center of gravity FR Package:

- Center of gravity that rivals super cars
- Ideal front/rear weight distribution
- Powerplant placed in the front-midship


FR-S WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION:

"Weight distribution can be controlled by the driver, center of gravity can't, which is why we've focused on achieving a low center of gravity"

Front:Rear weight distribution - 53:47
(with two occupants, company est.)


FR-S ENGINE:

- The world's only engine that combines next-gen D4-S with horizontally opposed boxer layout
- 100 horsepower per liter combined with excellent fuel economy
- Developed with Toyota's acclaimed D4-S direct-injection technology (fuel injection system) and Subaru's horizontally opposed engine
- Engine was designed exclusively for this application, and the foundational bore x stroke design from the ground up
- In addition to exception power/torque output, strong acceleration and response across the low and mid rpms was pursued.
- Strong acceleration up until the engine's top rpm of 7 400 was achieved.

Type: Horizontally opposed 4 cylinder
Displacement: 1.998
Top Output: 147(200)/7 000
Top Torque: 205(20.9)/ 6 600
Bore x Stroke: 86.0x86.0
Compression: 12.5


FR-S INTERIOR:

- Center tachometer with digital speedometer and rev indicator
- The smallest steering wheel of any Toyota
- Seats that emphasize support and fitment
- The world's first frameless sports mirror which improves forward visibility


FR-S CHASSIS:

- Suspension tuning that lives up to Toyota's illustrious FR heritage
- Brake system that emphasizes control of weight distribution

FR-S TRANSMISSION:

- 6-speed MT that emphasizes short stroke and satisfying feel
- 6-speed AT with paddles and downshifting spring control

FR-S BODY:

- Innovative aerodynamic performance that uses "aerohandling"
- High rigidity, low center of gravity and a light-weight body

FR-S AERODYNAMIC FEATURES:

- Low and smooth hood surface
- Aerodynamically optimized door mirrors
- Airfoil shaped from lower portion of the front bumpers to the lower side rocker panels
- Raked angle behind passenger cabin optimized trunk lid length
- Optimized rear diffuser angle
- Underbody cover/ai flap *depending on trim

TOYOTA's D4-S FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM

- Each cylinder has both direct and port injection, which are optimally used based on factors such as engine rpm
- Specifically developed as a high rpm, high compression unit
- Brings high output and torque across a wide torque band, providing lively acceleration.

Under high engine load:

Direct Injection:
-Fuel is injected directly into the cylinder
- High performance is achieved due to high compression

Under low to mid engine load:

Direct and port injection:
- Direct and port injection and optimally regulated
- Fuel efficiency is improved with a safe fuel burn

FR-S SUSPENSION:

Suspension Development Goal: To pursue "fun to drive" (control/stability as a sports car)

Front Suspension: Macpherson strut
This layout was used to provide a direct feeling with handling, sharp response, and excellent control, building on the strengths of a horizontally-opposed FR layout

Rear Suspension: Double wishbone
Grip that's accurately communicated to the driver (being one with the car); a combination of safety and exhilaration, these traits were pursued to provide satisfaction fitting for an FR sports car


FR-S SPACE & UTILITY:

"A sports car that can be daily driven. Emphasizing not only the joy of driving, but also every-day practicality."

2+2 Seating configuration

Dimensions:

Total height: 1 285mm
Front to rear seat distance: 700mm
Cabin length: 1 615mm
Wheelbase: 2 570mm
Total FR-S length: 4 240mm

Rear seat space (2 occupants)

- Due to front seat design, knee space is maximized for rear seat occupants
- Good rear visibility and comfortable seat backs
- Capable of using a child seat
- Distance from front to rear seats 700mm


FR-S TRUNK SPACE:

"By collapsing the rear seat, 4 tires or 2 gold bags can fit"

- 1 piece collapsible seat with access through the trunk
- Flat and wide storage space, designed in mind for carrying tools/tires for track days

FR-S STORAGE SPACE:

"With every-day ease of use in mind, there's plenty of storage space."

- Console box and cup holder: Removable cup holders can be moved front/back
- Glove box: Store insurance, license info
- Door bottle holder: can fit 500ml bottles
- Small change box: store small items

I like how you can fit four tires in the back. That is ingenuity to the max. This car reminds me of the integras with the rear folding seats. You can fit a treadmill in the back with the hatch open. Hows that for a 2 door sports coupe.

I found that to be a cool/different thing. Toyota is really aiming to make this a serious daily driver and weekend track car. Just loving how they covered nearly all of our needs with the FR-S. Performance, design, space, creature comforts, etc.

Years ago and even now it's hard to find a car like this, if you do find one it's a big luxury cruiser that drinks gas like no tomorrow.

the part about the D4-S technology really got to me. from whats explained it seems like the D4-S fuel injection system plays a significant role in making the 2.0 liter boxer engine reach it's peak performance level and deliver the "right" amount of fuel when needed.

maybe doing ECU remapping on this specific engine can result in really good power gains kinda like what Subaru is doing with the BRZ.

remapping the ECU just could be the first "mod" for a lot of people with the FR-S & FT86

Tuning direct fuel injection systems is tricky but the potential for these systems is greater then fuel rail injection systems.

adding forced induction to the DI system will take some serious effort.

[rwdftw]

Adding a forced induction system, will be a bolt on process's watch, people will offer full Bolton kits just because the huge amount of people who want boost.

I wonder what type of forced induction system people will be going for, Turbo or Supercharge.

A FR-S turbo would be sick, really curious to see how much power it can handle from a turbo kit before you have to do internal engine work. I'm expecting this 2.0L boxer engine to be a solid engine that can handle at least 10-12 PSI safely.

Imagine what the FR-S engine will be like with Nitrous!

D4-S Technology + NOS

I just had to post the F&F video haha

[Shadowkilla510]

The fuel economy would be around 30-31 mpg, but is that City or Highway? Because if it was high way then it wouldn't exactly be "excellent" fuel economy

[FR_S_Fan]

FR-S fuel economy around 30-31 mpg's would most likely be on highway, I say this because when comparing the FR-S to similar vehicles in the past like the S2000, it got just around 25-30 MPG's on the highway and 24-26 combined MPG.

I doubt the FR-S will get amazing MPG numbers but with the D4-S fuel injection system, it could help.

[dboz]

This is a performance based car. DO NOT BUY IT FOR MPG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Shadowkilla510]

Yeah I understand it's a performance based car, I just wanted to know. Drive an Integ so it wouldn't make much of a difference to me about the whole mpg thing. But I'm not driving like 45 miles a day, so I don't need to worry about gas as much.

[import_nation]

Actually because its direct injection nitrous would probably yield even higher gains. Cheap way to make power haha. Lease a FR-S run it on Nitrous for 3-4years. Give it back to them

[Flat-box]

I highly agree on that you want a great MPG car.. go buy a prius or a yaris or something...
