Most people associate Subarus with snow. However, you don't need snow have slippery roads. Subaru's exclusive symmetrical all-wheel drive provides remarkable traction, stability and control in ALL road and weather conditions - especially rainy, wet roads Florida drivers are accustomed to. As the graph from the U.S. DOT below shows, over 90% of weather-related crashes in the South happen on wet pavement either during or right after a rain storm. They also concluded that crash risk during rainfall is 70% higher than under clear, dry conditions.
Many drivers do not realize that pavement friction is significantly reduced under wet conditions, leading to greater stopping distances and potential loss of control. The researchers also reported that crash risk was greater when rain followed a period of dry weather due to accumulated oils on the road. Sounds a lot like Florida. Rain or sun, this is where Subaru's shine!
