Subaru Eyesight/Adaptive Cruise in Metro-Manila/Philippine Traffic

**Don900** · May 7th, 2018 03:42 PM

Noticed there is no dedicated thread for Subaru Eyesight so ---

Just sharing how it performs in bumper-to-bumper EDSA traffic

This is part 2 of 4 videos -- but sharing this one here because this is where I start completely not touching the throttle or the brakes, this continues until part 3. I was completely relaxed for this stretch of road.

Car model is the '18 XV, but this should show how it works for other models as well.

Settings: Acceleration at ECO/1, follow distance set to 1 bar.

It drives smooth, does not aggressively brake or accelerate at this setting.

Just search "Eyesight EDSA" for the others.

What does this eyesight exactly do? Very clear shot btw.

Thanks! Camera used is an SJCAM SJ4000.

The car stops, accelerates and speed-matches on its own. It looks like I am driving normally, but I am just sitting and steering while resting my foot. Well, at least in the posted video, next/other vids I take over for a few seconds to change lanes etc. Majority of my trip though I can rest my foot.

Very cool.

It's like a cruise control in traffic.

Does the Subaru Forester have the same rear vehicle detection and reverse automatic braking as the Subaru XV? Does the Subaru XV have rear cross traffic alert?

rear cross traffic alert wasnt available in the earlier version of the xv eyesight trim. I asked for this specifically from subaru rep. that was april 2019. I havent been updated since
