warns you, applies
brakes to help avoid impact and, at lower
speeds, can even help you stop your Subaru.
Pre-Collision Throttle
Management
Adaptive Cruise Control
Traffic doesn’t always flow smoothly, so
EyeSight

doesn’t only keep a set speed.
The system looks ahead and helps automatically adjust to keep your distance, even
in stop-and-go highway traffic.

and begin to cross into another. EyeSight
watches for lane markers and chimes to warn
you before you leave your lane, and it can
even help steer you back into your proper
course, thanks to the newest feature from
