Built to be Subaru safe.

Every Subaru vehicle starts with safety. Beneath the active safety systems and sculpted body panels lies a ring-shaped reinforcement frame engineered to help provide high-impact protection for the passenger compartment. It’s designed in conjunction with an advanced airbag system that can deploy up to eight airbags. Even the engine is designed with safety in mind – its low placement allows it to dive under the chassis to better protect your passengers in a front-end collision.

Ground Clearance

The Ascent, Crosstrek, Forester, Getaway, Outback, Trailseeker, and Uncharted feature raised suspension for added ground clearance — up to 9.5 inches, to be exact. So no matter which trail you choose to travel, you will certainly enjoy a smoother ride.

X-MODE®

X-MODE optimizes the Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system for maximum traction on slippery surfaces. Some Subaru vehicles — like the Wilderness family of SUVs — let you choose settings for specific conditions like deep snow, sand, and mud. When you need to descend difficult grades, you can turn on Hill Descent Control for extra stability and confidence.

Subaru owners aren’t the only ones who love our vehicles. Independent experts have tested, compared, and ranked Subaru vehicles at the top of their class for safety, longevity, value, and more.
