Subaru BOXER®: A One-Two Punch

Subaru cars are some of the most stable vehicles on the road. Many owe it to the car's state-of-the-art stability control systems, which automatically senses driving inputs to account for a car's overall control. However, technology is only one of several key players in Subaru's impressive stability, be it a sleek WRX or family-friendly Outback.

Subaru's engine design is a deviant. Its BOXER® engine, a variant of the flat engine, allows an equal weight distribution and a lower center of gravity compared with other engines. This allows a Subaru to turn those tight corners perfectly without rolling. The BOXER® engine takes a car's symmetry into account.
