FR-S stands for front-engine rear-drive sport, which pretty much sums up this concept's configuration and intention.

The lower grille opening features a smoother design than the FT-86 II concept we saw in Geneva and the entire vehicle seems flatter to the ground.

The FR-S concept features 18-inch, four-pot motorcycle style brakes that fill its 20-inch Five-Axis wheels. The wheel fit is staggered, 8-inches wide up front with 10-inchers out back.

We're already well versed in this platform's power train. Up front is a 2.0-liter flat four-cylinder engine that utilizes both direct and port injection to send an as-yet unspecified amount of power to the rear wheels.

Torque is sent to the rear axle via either a six-speed manual transmission with a short-throw shifter or a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters. Either way, the rear axle features a limited slip differential to manage available grip.
