HIGH-PERFORMANCE
SAFETY
Multi-Mode VDC Advanced Braking
Multi-mode Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC) helps protect you from a
detected loss of control while offering three distinct modes for flexible
performance. Normal Mode fully engages the system. Change to Traction
Mode to raise the threshold for intervention, allowing you to maximize your
control and the torque delivered to the wheels. You can even select Off
Mode to deactivate Vehicle Dynamics Control. Both the WRX and WRX STI feature technologies that improve braking and
your safety. Brake Assist helps you fully engage the brakes in an emergency,
while the Brake Override feature can help you avoid unintended acceleration
by overriding the gas pedal input if both the brake and gas pedal are
pressed at the same time.

EyeSight® Brembo® Brakes
Now standard on WRX models equipped with the Sport Lineartronic™
Transmission, EyeSight® 1,2 Driver Assist Technology integrates multiple
safety and convenience features so you’ll always feel comfortable and
protected wherever you go. EyeSight® gives you a virtual second pair of
eyes on the road that can warn you of potential danger ahead and even
apply the brakes if necessary. It’s a vigilant safety feature that gives peace of
mind to every drive. Once you experience it, driving will never be the same. The ultimate name in high-performance braking. Brembo® 3 produces
uncompromisingly powerful brakes that can take the punishment of hard
driving. The WRX Sport-tech RS features 4-piston front and 2-piston
rear calipers with ventilated discs. With the WRX STI, more horsepower
demands more stopping power. This is delivered by massive monoblock
6-piston front and 2-piston rear calipers coupled with cross-drilled and
ventilated discs, keeping you in control as you edge closer to the limit.
