Here is a video of how subaru's AWD system compares to other manufactures. Would have been interesting to see evo vs sti on the road courses though. The announcer is pretty lame..

They probabally didnt test the STi vs EVO for a reason ;)

Pretty cool video if your trying to buy somthing and dont know what to buy. But the announcer is pretty gay

I wanna drive on that ramp

yah i wanna try that ramp with the rollers. looks fun!

i wonder why they didn't use mitsu's awd.

^ yeah +1

seems pretty biased! interesting vid though........

i love subarus...but i dont think this test was fair for some reason....maybe ill watch it again....

First time post. Looks like a great forum. The video may have been a bit biased, but what I enjoyed seeing was the real world tests like accident avoidance. Especially the Volvo in the wet conditions. I was always skeptical about the real world performance of electronic FWD based AWD systems like in the Volvo and Toyota. Looks like the response times of the computer and electronic clutches leave a bit to be desired in response time. Great vid and thanks for having me on the board. :)

i wonder why they didn't use mitsu's awd.


simple. this isnt a evo vs sti awd battle.. its to show people(general public) how great the awd system in subarus compared to SUV, family sedans, etc. and even if mistu was in the video, what are they gona show? an outlander awd? im sure everyone knows that the only AWD system worth buying and have something goin for mitsu is the evo. but if we talk suv, passenger cars etc. subaru would own any car on mitsu's line up interms of awd. this is the whole point of the vid. not sti. not evo. its for the genreal public.

They need to air this video to the general public :P

Gay ass vid for me. If I dont see an EVO or STI or some kind of kick ass car, it doesn't count! :D
