The EPA rates the 2013 Scion FR-S at 22 mpg city and 30 mpg highway with the standard six-speed manual transmission, and a slightly better 25/34 mpg with the optional six-speed automatic. Those figures are quite good for a sports car, reflecting the FR-S's light weight and low-displacement four-cylinder engine. In our testing, we observed highway gas mileage even higher than the listed EPA figures, so careful drivers may find the FR-S to be even more efficient.

Conclusion

The EPA ratings show the FR-S is pretty good on gas mileage, and you may even do better in the real world.
