Essentially a Subaru Legacy station wagon equipped for SUV duty, the Subaru Outback has standard all-wheel drive and a raised suspension in order to compete with conventional 2-row midsize SUVs. Known for its outdoorsy image, the Subaru Outback offers considerably more off-road capability than rival crossover SUVs and is a popular choice in regions where heavy snowfall is the norm. Four-cylinder engines provide capable performance while returning typical fuel economy for a midsize crossover, and the Outback offers roomy accommodations for families of four combined with ample cargo capacity. On the move, the Subaru Outback favors ride comfort over athleticism, and the cabin stays quiet.
