The development of our symmetrical full-time All-Wheel Drive system and other new technologies has been the driving force behind Subaru for many years now. The reason for our dedication is that we want to get back to the basics of building cars that more and more people can enjoy driving with complete confidence. These ideal cars reward their owners with superior all-around performance that follows the driver's commands perfectly. Subaru started producing four-wheel drive passenger vehicles in 1972. Since then, we've unveiled a series of technological advances, each improving and perfecting what has become known as the Subaru symmetrical full-time All-Wheel Drive system, which constantly adjusts torque distribution to front and rear wheels.
