However, the most important thing that is worth mentioning is that Subaru vehicles have previously received top scores from other safety tests, but this is the first time that a Subaru gets a top score from Euro NCAP. The Euro NCAP safety performance tests evaluates “Adults Occupant Protection”, “Child Occupant Protection”, “Pedestrian Protection” and “Safety Assist”.
Euro NCAP test results for Subaru Legacy:
- Adult Occupant Protection: 79 percent
- Child Occupant Protection: 73 percent
- Pedestrian Protection: 58 percent
- Safety Assist: 71 percent
- Overall weighted score: 73 points
Well, since safety is the subject here, the 2010 Legacy features a cradle engine mounting system in addition to its ring-shaped reinforcement frame body, while standard equipment includes Vehicle Dynamics Control (VDC) system, 4-wheel disc Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), and the front dual, side and curtain airbags.
“Subaru is committed to offer confidence as well as sheer driving excitement to its customers, leveraged by the combination of its original Symmetrical All-Wheel-Drive system and Boxer Engine. Subaru believes the achievement of the 5-Sar rating will help increasing the confidence of its customers. Subaru will continue providing peace of mind by further polishing its distinctive technologies,” the manufacturer stated.
