VEHICLE DYNAMICS CONTROL SYSTEM
If the vehicle approaches the limits of stability, the AWD torque distribution, engine output and brakes at each wheel are adjusted to assist in keeping the vehicle on course.
ACTIVE TORQUE VECTORING 2
The available Active Torque Vectoring system applies the brakes and distributes less torque to the inside wheels and more torque to the outside wheels when cornering to improve handling.

REVERSE AUTOMATIC BRAKING 1
This system detects obstructions behind the vehicle and automatically applies the brakes when it judges that the risk of collision is high. Reverse Automatic Braking also incorporates a rear obstruction warning feature, which signals drivers using different patterns of alarms according to the distance from the obstruction.
SUBARU REAR / SIDE VEHICLE DETECTION( SRVD) 3
The Subaru Rear / Side Vehicle Detection( SRVD) system features Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Change Assist that sees where you don’ t and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert to warn you of traffic approaching from the side when you’ re backing up.

ACTIVE SAFETY

SUBARU GLOBAL PLATFORM( SGP)

05
HAZARD AVOIDANCE
Made possible by the SGP, the lower centre of gravity design, enhanced suspension system, and rigidity improvements provide a vehicle that responds immediately when evasive actions are taken, helping avoid hazards on the road.
The SGP’ s advancements throughout the chassis— higher rigidity, higher strength, lighter weight, better driving stability and responsive steering— particularly benefit these safety systems.

06
CABIN-PROTECTING LAYOUT
Now sitting lower than ever due to the low centre of gravity design of the SGP, the engine and gearbox are designed to slide beneath the vehicle in the event of a collision.

09

RING-SHAPED REINFORCEMENT FRAME
Utilizing the SGP, the Ring-shaped Reinforcement Frame makes better use of high-tensile strength materials and has been structurally redesigned for more efficient energy absorption from impacts in all directions.
WHIPLASH-MITIGATING FRONT SEATS
Designed to enhance comfort and help the driver feel more planted for more control, these seats can also help reduce the possibility of whiplash resulting from certain types of collisions.
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM( SRS) 4 AIRBAGS

08

The front-side and side curtain airbags have been redesigned to increase protection regardless of passenger position. A pressure sensor has been added inside the front doors for faster sensing speed while reducing false airbag deployment.

10

SEATBELTS
New dual pretensioners tighten both the lap and shoulder belts for front-seat occupants, while the locking tongue limits movement in the lap belt and reduces impact in the lower chest area. The end result is improved safety and lower injury levels.

PASSIVE SAFETY

1 The Reverse Automatic Braking system is not a substitute for safe and attentive driving. System effectiveness depends on many factors, such as vehicle maintenance, weather and road conditions. Always exercise caution and use vehicle mirrors and the Rearview Camera when backing up. See Owner’ s Manual for complete details on system operation and limitations. Requires optional Technology Package. 2 Sport-tech models only. 3 Sport and Sport-tech models only. 4 SRS: Supplemental Restraint System. Effective when used in conjunction with seatbelts.
