Check out this compact SUV’s towing features that help you stay safe on roads in Edina and the nearby communities: 

• Vehicle Dynamics Control: Monitors the steering angle, wheel speed, and brake pressure. This system decreases torque and applies the brakes if you drift over street and highway lines. It even helps you get back to your side of the road.
• Trailer Stability Assist: Checks roads for hazards and applies brake pressure to different trailer axles as necessary, which prevents swaying. 
• X-MODE®: Allows you to switch vehicle handling via different driving modes and therefore accommodate various road conditions. 
• Traction Control System: Improves traction by monitoring Forester axle slipping issues. If your vehicle starts to slip on Bloomington roads, this system adjusts the brake pressure and torque. 
• Active Torque Vectoring: Works in conjunction with Vehicle Dynamic Control to expand cornering limits, improve turning abilities, and provide neutral steering.
• Hill Descent Control: Helps ensure a consistent speed when driving down hilly terrain. Hill Descent Control is an available feature.
