Better Balance
Every Subaru is built for AWD from the ground up. This allows us to build
a balanced, symmetrical drivetrain that is free of the extra components
some other systems need to get power to all four wheels. This symmetry
and balance means stability that helps make driving your Subaru safer
and agility that makes it more fun.
Quicker Response
There are only four small patches of rubber that keep you in
control of your vehicle. The more your tires are engaged the
more control you have. Subaru keeps more power routed to all
four tires than some other systems that only fully engage as a
reaction to slippage that has already occurred.
Efficient Design
Because power in some systems must route through extra
components, these systems not only sacrifice efficiency, but also
can incur more wear and tear. Subaru routes power directly from the
engine to all four wheels to keep components—and frictional power
losses—to a minimum.
All wheels. All weather. All the time.
Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive
Wherever, whenever, or however you drive, control and confidence come from
one place—where your tires meet the road. Subaru has spent nearly 40 years
developing a system to get the most of those few points of contact, for traction
and control that can make curves more exciting, acceleration more dynamic, and
your ability to avoid danger more surefooted. Discover the driving satisfaction that
the balance and stability of Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive delivers, knowing
that this is just one of the many ways a Subaru can inspire.
