Modern Subaru models have fantastic tech features. Some are great for entertainment, while others provide enhanced safety. You’ll find a whole array of these features at your San Jose Subaru dealership on any model that was released within the last few years. Let’s explore some of the best features you’ll find.

 

1. EyeSight Driver Assistance Technology

EyeSight is an aptly-named suite of driver assistance tech, as having a car with this technology is like having another pair of eyes on the road at all times. Your car uses cameras to monitor traffic and respond to it in a way that keeps you safe. For example, if your car notices that you’ll probably collide with the car ahead if you don’t stop immediately, then it’ll send you an alert. If you don’t manage to stop in time, then your car will do it for you.

Your car also reduces the engine power when it detects something in your path. This gives you more time to hit the brakes, and it reduces the impact of any collision that does occur. EyeSight also has a system that helps you remain in your lane, as you’ll get an alert if you drift too close to the next lane. Your car can steer you back into your lane safely if you can’t do it fast enough. Adaptive Cruise Control also helps with staying in your lane.

2. DriverFocus Distraction Mitigation System

If you get drowsy while driving or become distracted for a moment, then your Subaru with the Distraction Mitigation System will send you an alert to help you become focused on driving once again.

The system also has driver profiles for five different drivers, and it’ll adjust the outside mirror position, climate control settings, and the driver’s seat position based on each driver’s saved preferences.

3. STARLINK Multimedia System

Subaru’s STARLINK multimedia system has many built-in functions that help with different aspects of driving. It has a radio built in so you can stay entertained, built-in navigation, and compatibility with Apple and Android smartphones. You can wirelessly connect smartphones to the system and receive calls and texts through it. You can also access various smartphone apps via the system using just your voice, letting you keep your hands on the wheel.

4. Device Charging

Modern Subaru cars have multiple ways for you and your passengers to keep your phones and tablets charged up. The cars have USB-A and USB-C ports in them for wired charging. Some also have wireless charging pads available if you’d prefer to keep your cabin wire-free.
