2016 Scion FR-S
small car / 2-door hatchback
Small overlap front: driver-side
Rating applies to 2014-16 models built after December 2013
Tested vehicle: 2014 Scion FR-S 2-door
The Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ were introduced in the 2013 model year. Beginning with 2014 models built after December 2013, energy absorbing foam was added to left knee bolster and a structural change adjacent to the left part of the firewall was made to improve occupant protection in small overlap frontal crashes. (Information about when a specific vehicle was manufactured is on the certification label typically affixed to the car on the driver door or adjacent B-pillar.) The tested FR-S was built after these changes had been made on the assembly line.
The Scion FR-S was renamed the Toyota 86 beginning with the 2017 model year as Toyota discontinued the Scion nameplate.

Driver restraints and dummy kinematics
The dummy’s head contacted the frontal airbag but slid off the left side, leaving the head vulnerable to contact with forward side structure. The side curtain airbag deployed but does not have sufficient forward coverage to protect the head from contact with forward side structure and outside objects, |
Action shot taken during the small overlap frontal crash test.
The dummy's position in relation to the door frame, steering wheel, and instrument panel after the crash test indicates that the driver's survival space was not maintained well.
During the crash, the dummy’s head contacted the frontal airbag but then mostly slid off the left side. The inflated portion of the side curtain airbag did not extend far enough forward toward the A-pillar.
Intrusion of the door hinge pillar and instrument panel contributed to a moderate risk of injury to the left lower leg.

Action shot taken during the frontal offset crash test.
The dummy's position in relation to the steering wheel and instrument panel after the crash test indicates that the driver's survival space was maintained very well.
Smeared greasepaint shows where the driver dummy's head was protected from hitting hard structures during rebound by the side curtain airbag.
Intrusion into the driver's space was minimal, and all leg and foot injury measures were low.

View of the vehicle and barrier just after the crash test.
View of the vehicle after the crash with door removed, showing the side airbags and damage to the occupant compartment.
Smeared greasepaint shows where the driver dummy's head was protected from being hit by hard structures by the side curtain airbag (contact with the side torso airbag is not visible in this photo).
Smeared greasepaint shows where the rear passenger dummy’s head was protected by the side airbag (the C-pillar trim was dislodged by the inflating airbag and does not pose an injury risk).
