TOWING YOUR ALL-WHEEL DRIVE SUBARU
Since Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive distributes power to all four wheels, improper
towing may damage your AWD system. The best way to tow your Impreza is with a flatbed
truck by your Subaru retailer or a commercial towing service.
For more information, please refer to “In Case of Emergency” in your Owner’s Manual.
