Moderate overlap front: original test

Rating applies to 2013-16 models

Tested vehicle: 2013 Scion FR-S 2-door

The Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ were introduced in the 2013 model year. 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

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).
