The Subaru Difference

Subaru’s core technologies identify the Subaru brand and give you the unique driving feel you can find only in a Subaru. These core systems allow Subaru vehicles to live up to its standards in performance, comfort, safety, and reliability while keeping its promise to deliver enjoyment and peace of mind to all passengers.

SUBARU BOXER Engine

A boxer engine, or a horizontally opposed engine, is an engine configuration in which its pistons move toward each other in a horizontal direction. Subaru has been solely committed to the SUBARU BOXER engine for its many advantages over other engine types, providing stability and reliable performance in its vehicles.

Lineartronic + Active Torque Split AWD

Lineartronic adjusts to any ratio in its range for smooth and stepless gear changes that keep the engine in its most efficient range for efficient and smooth acceleration, driving performance and better fuel efficiency. It comes paired with Subaru’s active torque split AWD system. Its default torque is well-balanced front to rear and adjusts in response to real-time traction conditions.

Subaru Global Platform

The latest technologies added to the evolved Subaru Global Platform, together with Symmetrical AWD, provide all passengers with even greater enjoyment and peace of mind. Overall driving dynamics are greatly enhanced, allowing everyone to spend an enjoyable and fulfilling time together.

Full Inner Frame Structure

A full inner frame construction and wider structural adhesive use help reduce sudden body movements while driving. A unified feel of steering and vehicle movement provide better driving dynamics and stability on any road.
