2020 Subaru XV Hybrid Specs

What makes a Subaru car stand out is its all-wheel-drive that exists in all their models which is basically what the company has built its brand on. You get a Symmetrical AWD, 2.0-litre boxer four cylinders with a CVT (transmission) with this Subaru XV. Subarus generally always drive on all wheels. The Subaru XV is carefully well built with the right ergonomics, which is the fundamental architecture for Subaru's models.

What else makes the Subaru XV standout is its available camera-based EyeSight safety system. EyeSight is Subaru’s smart and capable camera-based active safety system that most cars don’t have.

Subaru XV’s Performance

The XV offers you a 1.6-litre petrol engine, and as well as a 2.0-litre petrol hybrid with an electric motor.

The 1.6i engine can produce 112bhp, which provides an ample acceleration while keeping fuel-efficient.

The 2.0 e-Boxer is actually quicker, producing a 148bhp and its electric motor a further 17bhp.

When cornering, the XV resists well with considerable agility in recovering from sharp turns. You’d love how there’s plenty of grip and is always sure-footed. As a result, the XV is more enjoyable to drive after all!

Where the XV stands out is in having a genuine off-road capability. This is practically in addition to the four-wheel drive function, a driving setting that optimises the four-wheel drive system over unevenly paved or slippery surfaces.

Subaru’s Safety System

Subaru does not treat safety as a part-time job. Its Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive is always on, which makes it more reliable than other variations. The left and right sides of the drivetrain are both completely balanced, as power is equally distributed to the front and rear wheels, getting double the traction in full-time.

Subaru focuses and prioritizes all-around safety. The important part of the system is the coordination of the pre-collision feature, which only takes less effort needed to stay safe. It’s been powered by Subaru’s safety technology called the EyeSight. This safety technology allows the Subaru XV to have a set of eyes, using two stereo cameras to capture the area and perform image recognition as much as the human eye can. Subaru's cutting-edge driving support system uses images from both cameras to determine the shape, speed and distance of nearby vehicles such as motorbikes, bicycles, and people who are pedestrians.

It gives a warning to the driver when it is able to spot potential danger,and even applies the brakes when needed to help avoid an accident. The improved safety performance of the EyeSight reduces the burden on the driver to keep safe and enhances your sense of security. To take your safety further, the Subaru XV earned a five-star ANCAP safety score. This was based on an engineering analysis of the crash-test data and standard safety systems.

Subaru’s Overall Comfort

The Subaru XV hybrid is entirely comfortable to drive and be in. Subaru keeps up the competition by keeping our lower backs unstrained and relaxed with their seating design and capacity. It’s all roomy and comfortable in the back. When you open the doors of the Subaru XV, you’ll immediately notice its refined interior and sporty style. This model is rather spacious and polished than ever before. You’ll see the contoured seats provide a completely comfortable and enjoyable experience for you and all your passengers. No matter how smooth or rough your rides are, you’d definitely feel safe and comfortable in a Subaru XV.

So you need not be afraid of anything with a Subaru XV Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. Just as how responsive this system was tailored to fit the drivetrain of the particular model it's built on, so you can always trust your licensed driving skills even in uneven terrain or slippery areas within the harshest driving conditions you can think of.
