Safety For All

Standard EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology

EyeSight has been found to reduce rear-end crashes with injuries by up to 85%.[5]

EyeSight monitors traffic movement, optimizes cruise control, and warns you when you're swaying outside your lane. The automatic Pre-Collision Braking feature can even apply full braking force and bring you to a complete stop in emergency situations.[6] And with Lane Keep Assist, it can even help you steer back into your lane. Another way Subaru designs vehicles with your safety in mind.
