Csion FR-S

Offering sports-car agility on a budget, the compact FR-S offers excellent driving dynamics for a manageable price. Only one engine is offered—a 2.0-liter flat-four—with a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic. The manual shifts with a solid, no-nonsense feel, while the paddle-shift automatic is quick and responsive. The cabin is cramped and plasticky. Thanks to a low center of gravity, the FR-S is very agile, giving it big-fish appeal in a relatively small pond of affordable sports cars.
