Engineered to watch your back.
Always looking for ways to help make the Outback even safer, we also offer the available Reverse Automatic Braking System. 2 It can detect
objects directly behind your vehicle when backing up at a low speed and can help bring the Outback to a stop if an object is detected.
The Subaru Rear/Side Vehicle Detection (SRVD) system featuring Rear Cross-Traffic Alert 3 is there to warn you of traffic approaching from the
side when you’re backing up. There’s also Blind-Spot Detection with Lane Change Assist 3 to help warn you when it senses a vehicle in your
blind spot and the standard Rearview Camera, giving you better vision when backing up. To help you see better around corners, the new
LED Steering Responsive Headlights (SRH) point the way as you turn the wheel.

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 Brake Override. There’s also the Hill Holder
feature, which helps prevent rollback.
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 helps make your
Outback even more responsive and better
at taking on corners.
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.
