Subaru Exterior Safety Features
Beneath the active safety systems and body panels lies a ring-shaped reinforcement frame that can provide high-impact protection for the passenger compartment. The advanced airbag system can deploy up to eight airbags. The engine itself is designed with safety in mind. With a lower-sitting engine, it can dive under the chassis to better protect the passenger seat in case of a front-end collision.
