Home | The Subaru Advantage

Subaru has always designed cars that are reliable, safe and rewarding to drive. That's because every Subaru has the Subaru Advantage.


Subaru engineers are committed to designing our vehicles to be the safest in their class.

All Subaru models offer Active Safety features like symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and an Anti-lock Braking System that delivers superior grip and handling in all conditions.

Combined with Passive Safety features like multiple airbags and the Ring-Shaped Reinforcement Frames of the vehicle safety cell, this provides superior passenger protection in the event of an impact from any direction.

These standard safety features have contributed to all Tribeca, Liberty, Outback and Forester models receiving a maximum 5 Star ANCAP* Occupant Safety Rating with Impreza receiving a high 4 Star Rating.

At Subaru, our engineers strive to constantly set new benchmarks.

From the ergonomically designed interior, the superior engineering of our symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system and other innovative new technologies, like Subaru Intelligent Drive – our pursuit is a safer more satisfying and exhilarating driving experience.

That's why Subaru is famous for design quality and reliability and is considered by many industry bodies the very best for retained resale value.


For the last decade the testing ground for Subaru has been world rallying.

Every Subaru benefits from rally bred symmetrical All-Wheel Drive technology.

Competing and excelling has given our engineers a unique understanding of performance engineering and this is evident in the dynamic, turbocharged Liberty GT, Impreza WRX and Forester XT models.

And in 2006 Subaru was awarded the International Engine of the Year Award, 2.0 - 2.5-litre class.


Every Subaru offers a diverse range of features and options giving you the versatility and flexibility to suit your lifestyle.

There's the choice of sedans, hatches and wagons, plus flexible seating and cargo configurations and practical and intelligent extras.

This combines with the ability of every Subaru to handle a wide variety of road conditions, from dirt to icy tracks and suburban streets - underpinned by the safety of advanced symmetrical All-Wheel Drive.
