So it will emergency break on the highway if something flies in front of the car? Sounds dangerous and unlikely.

  It is possible to see a difference between a fly, bird or car..

    Right. I somehow doubt Subaru is ahead of the game compared to Tesla on that. I took a look at how Subaru Eyesight works. It uses a dual camera system to identify a vehicle ahead and apply braking if it slows down, pedestrians and other specific patterns. Some of it is limited to a 19mph closing difference (surprise). So the statement above that “mine emergency brakes with objects ahead at any speed” is, unsurprisingly, incorrect. It doesn’t react to any object and would probably happily hit a tree under the right conditions, or a parked car. Happy to be proven wrong with a demonstration video of the car at full speed.

      Uhh, no, it's totally correct that it will slam on the brakes. Source: own a Subaru, have driven it at a cardboard box in the middle of the street, and have had it slam on the brakes. Have also had it slam on the brakes when swerved into my lane, saving me from an accident. So... worth it.

        A Tesla Will also slam on the brakes in general. Swerving into your lane likely fits the 20mph window that Subaru is designed for. But that’s not what’s in question in this comment thread. Have you tested yours again a stationary emergency vehicle or a tree? Otherwise there isn’t much to discuss here.

          Did you read what I wrote? I drove it down the street at a cardboard box and it slammed on the brakes and stopped.
