Get Ready for Winter Boston

New Englanders understand the importance of owning a capable vehicle that can easily handle hazardous road conditions in the winter; that's why Subaru vehicles are so popular in our area. No matter which vehicle you choose, you can feel confident behind the wheel thanks to the standard symmetrical all-wheel drive that is a part of the standard equipment list on every model. It's a big deal because most vehicle manufacturers charge more for all-wheel drive systems in their vehicles, and it is typically an upgrade or add-on. Subaru equips every vehicle (except for the Subaru BRZ sports car) so you can feel confident and effortlessly tackle changing road conditions with exceptional traction.

What is Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive?

Traditional all-wheel drive systems distribute power to the wheels that need the most traction. Subaru vehicles, in particular, are designed to have all-wheel drive by default, so the system is balanced equally compared to other vehicle brands that offer front- or rear-wheel drive as standard and then add all-wheel drive to the existing structure. Subaru engineers have created a perfectly balanced vehicle that evenly distributes power to the wheels from front to back, left to right, and vice versa. The symmetrical part of Subaru's all-wheel drive is attributed to this natural balance.

Subaru owners enjoy standard all-wheel drive, which aids in traction and grip in changing road conditions. With symmetrical all-wheel drive and advanced driver assistance and safety features, Subaru vehicles are some of the safest vehicles on the road. Our technicians recommend snow tires in the winter to enhance safety and make the most of the symmetrical all-wheel drive capabilities to enjoy confident handling all season long.
