Moving safely, swiftly and comfortably - that is the essence of a car. For this purpose, Subaru has come to develop rational and functional design that constantly pursues the finest performance. Thanks to its structure, "The Subaru Boxer Engine" is inherently light, compact and has a low center of gravity. "The Symmetrical AWD" maximizes the potential of four-wheel drive with the Subaru Boxer Engine and symmetrically designed drivetrain, and the structure of the body and chassis enhances performance through its higher rigidity and low center of gravity.
We continue to improve performance to deliver 'Enjoyment and Peace of Mind' to every person
on every road through unrivalled state-of-the-art technology, born out of our own unique
design philosophy and the necessity of physics.
The SUBARU BOXER Engine, which powers every vehicle in the Subaru line, is renowned for its superior balance, smoothness and power delivery - and has been for 50 years now. This horizontally opposed design is inherently balanced due to its pistons firing in a 180º symmetrical layout around the crankshaft, allowing it to rotate freely and smoothly at all engine speeds. The flat profile of the BOXER engine allows it to be mounted lower with nearly equal left and right weight balance – the result is a low centre of gravity that contributes to more balanced handling, flatter cornering and greater stability on every type of road.
Subaru's Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system delivers exceptional stability, safety, and on-road performance across diverse conditions. Utilizing a longitudinally mounted Horizontally-Opposed SUBARU BOXER engine for a low center of gravity and a symmetrical AWD drivetrain, this system provides outstanding traction, limits chassis rolling and pitching, and enhances ride comfort for all passengers. Subaru's Symmetrical AWD delivers smooth drives and ensures confident handling, even in challenging weather or on rough roads, making driving enjoyable regardless of the driver's skill level.
One button elevates driving confidence and provides advanced, SUV-like control. The X-Mode brings a whole new meaning to security and peace of mind, regardless of how rough or slippery a road may be as it works to coordinate the engine, transmission, Symmetrical AWD and brakes to safely drive over almost any type terrain. X-Mode assists in those cases where the vehicle starts moving faster as it drives downhill, like when driving down snowy roads or gravel slopes. Hill Descent Control maintains the vehicle’s speed so the driver can focus more on steering.
The Subaru Global Platform (SGP) is Subaru's next-generation platform, developed with years of expertise to enhance "Enjoyment and Peace of Mind" for all passengers. This platform focuses on improving vehicle safety, driving experience, and cabin comfort through advancements in chassis design, including higher rigidity, strength, and lighter weight. The SGP delivers more responsive handling, absorbs road shocks for a smoother and less fatiguing ride, and minimizes cabin noise and vibrations, ultimately providing a safer, more enjoyable, and enriching car experience for everyone.
The Subaru Global Platform (SGP) is the underlying platform that will underpin next generation of Subaru vehicles. The SGP’s advancements throughout the chassis—higher rigidity, higher strength, lighter weight, better rolling resistance and responsive steering—particularly benefit these safety systems. It's the future of Subaru, and delivers even more enjoyment and peace of mind to all drivers and passengers.
More responsive handling allows the driver to steer the car as intended that gives the confidence. Improvements in chassis rigidity, suspension, and stabilisers efficiently absorb shocks from the road and hide uneven surfaces, allowing more comfort and less fatigue on long rides. The result is a car that's safer and more fun to drive.
Unpleasant vibrations or noise have been minimised to ensure all passengers enjoy the ride and the conversation in a car. Suspension improvements and highly rigid chassis allow a comfortable cabin interior for all. The Subaru Global Platform (SGP) delivers enjoyment and peace of mind to all drivers and passengers.
