Subaru: The perfect choice of winter warrior

With the UK in the grip of another classically dark, wet, icy and grim winter and the roads in a slippery state of perpetual mud, leaves, frost and black ice, there’s never been a better time to make full use of Subaru’s legendary symmetrical All-Wheel Drive transmission – the perfect antidote to the woeful winter weather.

Subaru’s quick-thinking, full-time AWD transmission splits power 50:50 front to rear; enhancing straight-line traction (even with up to 330bhp/346lbft on tap, as in the exciting new Impreza 330S) and providing sure-footed grip and traction through corners, whatever the weather; allowing the driver to make safe, swift progress, day in, day out.

On a typically slippery British Winter road, grip is at a premium. But Subaru’s “Subaglue” permanent All-Wheel Drive – with state-of-the-art Vehicle Dynamics Control, intelligent AWD differentials and super-grippy chassis and set-up – will find you traction, where a 2WD car would be slipping and sliding, leaving the driver in a panic, or worse. As a Subaru driver, even in hard rain, snow or icy conditions, all you will be aware of while you make steady progress, is less understeer or oversteer, as the tried-and-tested, highly evolved symmetrical AWD does its job reassuringly. With Subaru’s full-time AWD, you can relax and drive with assurance, and grip – even during these dismal winter days.

Lawrence Good, Managing Director, Subaru (UK) Ltd said: “Subaru’s ability to provide reliable and safe driving even in inclement weather conditions highlights our commitment to delivering state-of-the-art safety to its customers.”
