Innovation
Boxer Engine At the heart of every Subaru is our legendary SUBARU BOXER engine,
with pistons laid fl at in horizontal opposition. A design weve refi ned for almost
40 years, it lowers the center of gravity for more precise handling while increasing
durability and reducing vibration. And provides outstanding acceleration with every
push of the gas pedal. Balance. Stability. Power. Its what makes a Subaru, a Subaru.
Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive All-Wheel Drive (AWD) isnt unique. But Symmetrical
AWD is. The foundation of every Subaru, its ideal balance helps ensure stability and
poise. Its effi ciency at transmitting power ensures greater grip and quick response
to slippage. Providing more than just safety on slick roads, it delivers intensifi ed
performance on any road. All-wheel drive is not just our heritage, it is our passion.

| Safety
Accident Avoidance Every Subaru is engineered to keep you out of harms way,
because the least dangerous accident is the one that never happens. Our Symmetrical
AWD and lower center of gravity work in concert with the 4-wheel independent
suspension and rigid chassis for nimbleness and agility to help you avoid danger.
Impact Protection To protect you when a collision is unavoidable, every Subaru is
designed to provide maximum protection. The structure is built around impact
beams and a Ring-Shaped Reinforcement Frame body structure to help dissipate the
force of a crash. Our commitment to safety is integrated into everything we build.
