Subaru Technology

Subaru Global Platform

For over 50 years since its inception, Subaru has been at the forefront in advocating for automotive safety. In tandem with this, the Subaru brand raised the bar by the Subaru Global Platform's invention, whose objective is to maintain straight-line stability, boost cabin quietness, and increase the ride's comfort.

Subaru Boxer Engine

The legendary, world-famous Subaru Boxer engine, powering all vehicles in the Subaru lineup, has a horizontally opposed design to lower gravity, facilitating sharper handling, smooth acceleration, and excellent cornering, and outstanding road stability. The Subaru Boxer is available in different options, including 4-cylinder and 6-cylinder engines, which can be optioned to be naturally aspirated or turbocharged.

Subaru PZEV Technology

PZEV, an acronym for Partial Zero Emission Vehicle, is a Subaru technology to reduce smog-forming emissions. This carbon footprint-reducing technology is made possible by modifying the following components:

• Catalytic converters
• Fuel injectors
• Engine control module (ECM)
• Dual-filtration air-intake system

With this technology, drivers are gentler to the environment without necessarily sacrificing performance.

SI-DRIVE

The Subaru Intelligent Drive is an engine management system that allows drivers to select different driving modes to suit varying weather conditions and driving styles

Symmetrical AWD

For over 40 years, the Subaru's symmetrical AWD has undergone evolution to handle all-weather road conditions. The symmetrical AWD sends power to all wheels, providing more grip, which improves handling both on-road and off-road.

X-MODE

Coupled with the symmetrical AWD, X-MODE suits daring drivers to venture into less-travelled roads. Be it a muddy or slippery road, the X-MODE will see you through it. The X-MODE complements the Hill Descent Control feature to enable the driver to make it through tricky situations, such as steep inclines and uneven road surfaces.

CVT Transmission

A continuously variable transmission uses a belt, chain, and pulleys to transfer the engine's power to the wheels. Subaru prefers the CVT because it provides smooth acceleration, fuel economy, and eco-friendliness.

Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC)

The VDC is a staggered form of electronic stability control that utilizes a couple of sensors to monitor steering wheel position, wheel speed, yaw rate, and lateral acceleration to determine if the car is moving in the intended direction. If not, the vehicle will try to correct the situation by using numerous active safety corrective procedures.

Advanced Frame Design

It's an ultra-rigid frame built to handle different driving dynamics and protect occupants in a crash situation.

Subaru DriverFocus

This recent breakthrough technology in Subaru helps avert one of the leading causes of accidents: distracted driving. The system uses a front-mounted camera aptly angled to monitor the driver's face to detect fatigue and distraction. If this is happening, the system prompts visual and audio alerts to the driver.

Subaru EyeSight

This advanced Subaru's driver-assist technology acts as a second eye for the driver. It warns you and sometimes assists you to react in case of danger. Utilizing two cameras to monitor activities while you are driving, Subaru's EyeSight® provides preventive assistance using the below technologies:

• Adaptive Cruise Control
• Pre-collision Braking
• Lane-departure Warning
• Pre-collision Throttle Management

Rear/Side Vehicle Detection

The Subaru Rear/Side Vehicle Detection (SRVD) system provides an added layer of safety in Subaru by utilizing features like Blind-spot monitoring, Rear Cross-traffic Alert, and Lane-change Assist in preventing accidents.

High-Performance Suspension

It's a high-rigid independent suspension developed with comfort, control, and handling in mind. The system ensures that the wheels are firmly grounded on the road to optimize performance, enhance ride quality, and maintain control everywhere and every time.
