When You Need Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive
Every season. Every condition. Every time you drive. Confidence behind the wheel comes from one place -- where your tires meet the road. A sure grip of the road can give you the control to step around danger. The assurance to tackle any road surface, or brave challenging weather conditions. And the poise and responsiveness to make every mile more engaging. Subaru has spent nearly 40 years developing a system for traction and control that employs an almost perfectly symmetrical layout to maximize power delivery, and to generate balance and stability for control that's inspiring in almost any condition.
All Weather Conditions
 |
Seasons are beautiful things. But snow, rain and other conditions can surprise even the best planners and intimidate even the most adventurous. Subaru Symmetrical AWD can help give you the power to embrace every turn of the weather. It keeps power fed to each of your tires so your vehicle holds on to every bit of road traction available. And if it gets really slippery out there, Subaru Symmetrical AWD reacts to slippage by routing power away from the wheels without traction to those that have it. Even if you encounter challenging weather conditions between you and your destination, with a Subaru, you're always ready. |
All Road Agility
 |
Sometimes the best adventures begin when the immaculate asphalt stops. Subaru Symmetrical AWD combined with the rugged build of our vehicles helps give you the freedom to stray off the beaten path onto gravel, dirt, or other road types. Subaru AWD sends power continually to all wheels to help securely grip nearly any surface, and its balanced design and poised handling helps you navigate rough spots with a feeling of confidence. What's more, it reacts quickly to slippage by redistributing power away from the wheels that slip to the wheels that have hold of the road. |
Spirited Handling
 |
You deserve the power to delight in every mountain road, every curving onramp, every tight turn between you and your destination. With Subaru Symmetrical AWD, conquering curves can become pure inspiration. Power flows continuously to each wheel -- giving a feeling of being connected to the road as you enter a curve. Balance and stability coming from the symmetrical layout of Subaru AWD help you track precisely through the curve. And as you exit, each wheel engages the road, helping you accelerate quickly and predictably, and helping reduce the chance of understeer or oversteer. The stable chassis then helps you nimbly regain your balance and get ready for the next one. |
