SUBARU’ S WORLD-LEADING
DRIVER ASSIST TECHNOLOGY
At Subaru, we believe in ALL-AROUND SAFETY and an important part of that is pre-collision safety, making sincere efforts to ensure an accident never happens. That’ s why we created EyeSight ®, 1 Subaru’ s cutting-edge driving support system. Like a second pair of eyes for the road ahead, EyeSight ® 1 uses two cameras, capturing three-dimensional colour images with excellent obstacle recognition, nearly as capable as the human eye. Using images from both cameras to precisely determine the shape, speed and distance, it not only detects vehicles, but also motorbikes, bicycles and pedestrians. When spotting potential danger, it warns the driver and even applies the brakes if necessary, to help avoid an accident. With improved safety performance like this, EyeSight ® 1 reduces the burden on the driver and enhances your sense of security in the Impreza.

1. ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
EyeSight ® 1 doesn’ t only maintain the speed the driver sets as traditional cruise control does. When it senses a vehicle in front, Adaptive Cruise Control adjusts the speed to keep a set distance from the lead vehicle by monitoring the distance and the difference of the speed. It adjusts the engine, transmission and brake to keep your speed in line with the traffic flow. Designed for use on freeways, highways and similar roads, Adaptive Cruise Control actually detects a lead vehicle and its brake lamps and can help keep pace in stop-and-go highway traffic for you, a comfort and convenience on long drives.

2. LANE DEPARTURE AND SWAY WARNING
When you are distracted by fatigue and are wandering or drifting in a lane at approximately 60 km / h or more, Lane Sway Warning helps you stay alert with an audible and visual warning. When travelling at speeds of approximately 50 km / h, the Lane Departure Warning system will then warn the driver if they leave the lane they are in or change lanes without signaling.
3. LANE KEEP ASSIST
While driving on freeways, highways and similar roads, Lane Keep Assist can monitor lane markings and detect when the vehicle begins to move out of its lane. At speeds of approximately 65 km / h or more, it can assist with steering wheel operation to help prevent lane departure to support safe driving.
4. LEAD VEHICLE START ALERT
When you’ re at a stop and EyeSight ® 1 senses that traffic has started moving again, Lead Vehicle Start Alert prompts the driver to take action with an audible and visual warning.
