Performance & Capability

Paired with an 8-speed Lineartronic CVT automatic transmission, this powertrain balances responsive acceleration with impressive efficiency ratings of 25 city / 31 hwy MPG. Standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive delivers continuous power to all four wheels, maintaining steady traction across rain, snow, or gravel roads. For off-pavement journeys or challenging road conditions, the driver-selectable X-MODE driver selectable drivetrain mode optimizes engine output and transmission ratios while activating Hill Descent Control for maximum control down steep grades. Supported by a four-wheel independent suspension featuring an independent front suspension and a double wishbone rear suspension setup, the Outback delivers a smooth, composed ride. Riding on 18 x 7-inch gray aluminum wheels with all-season tires, this crossover combines rugged stability with everyday driving comfort.
