The 2016 Subaru WRX Offers New Safety Technology

The new 2016 Subaru WRX is coming soon to Brilliance Subaru here in the Elgin and Crystal Lake, IL area, and in addition to the performance credentials that make the WRX famous, it will be available with some sophisticated new safety technology. For the first time, the WRX will now be offered with the EyeSight suite of preventative safety systems that promise to protect you, your passengers, and everyone else on the road.

The Subaru WRX and EyeSight

EyeSight was developed by Subaru engineering to keep you safe on the road. While some of these features are widely available across the auto market, most of them are restricted to high-end, expensive packages on existing models, or even more expensive luxury models. Subaru doesn’t work like that – you’ll find that the Subaru models equipped with EyeSight achieve the best possible Superior rating in the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Front Collision Prevention category, and do so at a lower price than competitors. In fact, most competitors can’t achieve that Superior rating, no matter how much money you spend.

The new 2016 Subaru WRX, the performance-oriented version of the Impreza, is now available with the EyeSight system for 2016. So what does the EyeSight system provide? Using stereo cameras to read the road ahead and detect potential obstacles it offers:

 
• Adaptive Cruise Control: This feature safely maintains the distance between you and the vehicle ahead automatically.
• Lane Departure Warning: EyeSight monitors your position and alerts you if you intentionally stray from you lane.
• Pre-Collision Throttle Management: If the system detects a potential obstacle it will reduce power to the engine to reduce damage from a collision.
• Pre-Collision Warning: The system will automatically warn you if an obstacle is in your path.
• Pre-Collision Braking: If you don’t apply the brakes and a collision is imminent, the EyeSight system will do it for you.

While you don’t always expect these kinds of preventative safety features on an entry-level sports car like the Subaru WRX, Subaru makes it possible to protect yourself and everybody else on the road with the affordable EyeSight system.
