Always controls the corners.
At all four corners.
Subaru Symmetrical Full-Time All-Wheel Drive
The satisfaction of the drive comes from symmetry and balance. That is why Subaru has been
developing and perfecting the Symmetrical AWD system since 1972. Matched with the SUBARU
BOXER® engine for a near-perfect symmetrical layout, it delivers gratifying power with exceptional
traction, providing balance and stability for total control in ever-shifting road conditions.

Dynamic Performance
Excellent road adhesion makes acceleration immediate and exhilarating. And the symmetry helps the XV
Crosstrek deliver responsive handling because it’s more stable during cornering, for a unique feeling of control
in any situation.

Constant Contact
The more your tires are engaged with the road, the more control you have. Power is routed to all four tires while the
vehicle is in motion in order to maintain optimal connection to the road, maximizing handling and control.

Agility In An Emergency
In bad weather, or in the precious seconds it takes to react to a sudden situation, the symmetrical drivetrain with
impressive balance provides the stability, agility and traction that help you step around danger.
