Why Subaru Symmetrical AWD Is Better for Arkansas Drivers?
Why Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive Is Better for Arkansas Drivers
Here in northwest Arkansas, when it comes to terrain and weather, we can get the worst of both worlds. That's especially true here in the Fayetteville, AR area, in that the Ozark Mountains surround us. Rugged hardwood forests become the rolling hills that give way to steep bluffs descending into moss-covered, rock-strewn landscapes. What's more, hot, muggy, and rainy summers give way to cold winters, and travel from Springdale, AR, to Rogers, AR, and beyond can quickly become trouble, with conditions changing by the moment.
That's where a Subaru all-wheel drivetrain (AWD) can make all the difference. If you're looking to learn more about all it can do for your outings here in the Natural State, it's a good thing you came to us here at Adventure Subaru. Our experts can bring you up to speed on all you need to know.
What is Subaru Symmetrical AWD?
Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive is a proprietary full-time AWD system. Subaru built it with a straight-line layout made up of a horizontally opposed, flat-four Subaru BOXER® engine with equal-length drive shafts on both sides. Designing a drivetrain this way balances your Subaru vehicle's weight. That, in turn, keeps its center of gravity low and enhances its stability, both on the roads around Bentonville, AR, and off the beaten path.
How Does Subaru AWD Differ from Other Systems?
Other brands' all-wheel-drive systems remain in front-wheel drive (FWD) until their sensors detect tires slipping. Subaru Symmetrical AWD, in contrast, is full-time and always on - permanently active. It sends power to all four wheels continuously and never reverts to FWD, making your vehicle ready for any driving situation.
Benefits of Symmetrical AWD for Arkansas Driving
Of course, Subaru designs every car or SUV with protecting you and your loved ones in mind. So, whether you're splitting town for that long-planned getaway or just navigating traffic while driving to work in Bella Vista, AR, you can enjoy peace of mind. Symmetrical AWD with X-MODE® is key to that. This exclusive system adjusts everything from throttle and transmission settings to torque distribution and brake response at low speeds. The result: improved capability, not only through thick Upper South mud but also up the steep embankments we orienteers frequently run into on the Boston Mountains outskirts.
