Cutting-edge technology

Australian roads have never been busier, the weather is becoming more unpredictable and driver distraction is increasing. That’s why safety is more important than ever. Under the skin of every Subaru XV is hidden engineering brilliance. With a ring-shaped steel safety cell that’s designed to absorb and direct the impact of the force around the cabin, rather than through it. Plus every XV comes equipped with the superior traction and control of Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and 7, yes 7, SRS airbags - dual front, dual front side, dual curtain and knee airbag for driver. Little wonder a Subaru XV achieves a 5 star ANCAP safety rating.

Many accidents happen because a driver simply cannot see another. Subaru’s Vision Assist is designed to eliminate blinds spots with cameras and sensors placed to give a driver unprecedented awareness of what’s around them.If a vehicle is in your blind spot, a light symbol on your side mirror lights up – on either side of the car – to let you know. Or, if you’re changing lanes and a fast approaching vehicle is behind you, a light symbol will warn you of its presence. If you’re reversing and the system detects that vehicles are approaching from the side, Subaru's Vision Assist Rear Cross Traffic Alert will alert you audibly that there is risk of a collision.Subaru XV 2.0i-S AWD shownSubaru's Vision Assist standard on Subaru XV 2.0i Premium AWD, 2.0i-S AWD and Hybrid S AWD.
