In my ongoing search for Australia’s best mum cars, we are at week two with the Subaru Outback. What is interesting is how quickly we settled into the outback life. This is an SUV that is so easy to live with.
What I want to chat about today is safety. All new mums want their baby to be safe everywhere. That especially applies while driving.
There are the obvious safety features that give the Outback a five star safety rating. But there is much more.
I love the fact that there are airbags everywhere. The Outback also has a ring shaped safety cell protecting the occupants.
Where the Subaru adds more is in things such
- Symmetrical All Wheel Drive system. All four wheels are driving all the time which is great in wet, slippery or icy conditions
- Driver monitoring system – that alerts you if you are becoming drowsy or distracted
- Eye-Sight: a system exclusive to Subaru that predicts what is happening outside the car
- Vehicle dynamics that includes emergency braking forward and in reverse.
- If you do happen to get in a front on accident the engine is designed to slide down under the body cell away form people.
There are other features that you really don’t think about too much but are important. Like a tyre pressure monitoring system that tells you if your tyres are going flat. Automatic wipers and headlights. And if your hands are full there is voice controls so that you aren’t distracted from driving.
The Outback is designed to be one of the =safest SUVs on the market and that’s very comforting with my baby on board.
