Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S Manual Gets 22-MPG City, 30-MPG Highway
Excited for the new Subaru BRZ and Scion FR-S? We already know how the FR-S performs – read our review here – but up until now, we hadn’t a real clue what its fuel economy would be like.
Official EPA fuel efficiency figures have been posted on fueleconomy.gov, and it appears the 2.0L four-cylinder powered BRZ and FR-S will get 22-mpg city, 30-mpg highway.
Those are the figures for the manual-equipped models, while the automatics should get around 25-mpg city, 34-mpg highway.
