Regarding passenger safety, Subaru has long ranked among the leading automakers. It has invested much time and effort into developing cutting-edge technologies that help prevent disaster. Every new Subaru model equipped with an automatic transmission now comes standard with an Eyesight Driver Assistance system, which promises to take your confidence to the next level. Here’s just a sample of Subaru’s advanced safety features.
Pre-Collision Braking
Whether running errands or taking a weekend road trip, Pre-Collision Braking constantly monitors the road ahead of you. This technology will provide visual and audible alerts if it detects a potential crash. Pre-collision braking can even automatically bring the vehicle to a stop when necessary.
Adaptive Cruise Control
Adaptive Cruise Control is designed to make your drive a lot less stressful. It helps you to maintain a safe following distance at all times. If traffic begins to slow, Adaptive Cruise Control can seamlessly reduce your speed.
Lane Keep Assist
Lane Keep Assist is one of today’s most beneficial accident-avoidance technologies. If you begin to drift out of your lane, the system will promptly give you a warning. It can also automatically adjust your steering to keep you within the lines.
Blind-Spot Detection
When traveling on busy roadways, it’s often difficult to spot approaching vehicles. By alerting you to potentially unseen traffic, Blind-Spot Detection makes changing lanes far safer. Rear Cross-Traffic Alert is also built into the system, thus helping you to avoid an accident when backing out of parking spaces.
DriverFocus Distraction Mitigation System
Research shows that driving while tired can be extremely dangerous. To help motorists avoid falling asleep at the wheel, Subaru developed a world-class DriverFocus Distraction Mitigation System. Designed with an infrared camera and facial recognition, this advanced system detects signs of drowsiness. If the driver is deemed unresponsive with their eyes off the road, the DriverFocus Distraction Mitigation system can safely bring the vehicle to a complete stop.
