Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive
Control leads to confidence, and stability leads to an agility that excites in
the Outback. Subaru vehicles are gifted at inspiring confidence behind the
wheel, thanks to the inherently stable design of the Subaru Symmetrical
Full-Time All-Wheel Drive system paired with the uniquely balanced SUBARU
BOXER® engine. This system delivers power to all four wheels for enhanced
control on all roads and in all weather conditions—whether they are poor
or perfect. It offers excellent side-to-side balance and handling precision,
thanks to its main components being aligned longitudinally, while its low
centre of gravity creates an especially engaging and responsive drive.
The unique advantages of Subaru Symmetrical Full-Time AWD make for
exceptionally rewarding handling and empower you to better avoid danger.

And in a collision, it allows
the engine to retract under
the cabin, lengthening the
front crumple zone.
Tuned Front
Strut Suspension
Employing front struts and
rear shocks, the suspension
