Like eyes on the back of your head.
At Subaru, we believe the best accident is the one that never happens. That’s why we’ve equipped the Outback with available
active safety technologies like the Subaru Rear/Side Vehicle Detection (SRVD) system featuring Rear Cross-Traffic Alert to help
warn you of traffic approaching from the side when you’re backing up and Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Change Assist to
help warn you when it senses a vehicle in your blind spot or a vehicle approaching at a high speed in a neighbouring lane. The
standard Rearview Camera provides better vision when backing up.
Braking System
The standard 4-wheel disc brakes and Anti-lock
Braking System (ABS) supply a strong, reassuring
brake feel. To ensure maximum braking during
an emergency, the Outback features both Brake
Assist and Electronic Brake-force Distribution.
There’s also the Hill Holder feature, which helps
prevent rollback on steep inclines.
Vehicle Dynamics Control with
Active Torque Vectoring
Standard Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC)
senses if the vehicle is following the driver’s
intended course and can help ensure it
does. Active Torque Vectoring was added to
make your Outback even more responsive
and better at taking on corners.
Increased Visibility
The Outback features thin A-pillars, which
increase visibility. It also features front
quarter windows with door-mounted side
mirrors to reduce the front blind spot for
increased forward visibility.
