Performance

The Subaru Outback offers a standard 180-horsepower 2.5-liter SUBARU BOXER® engine. You can upgrade to the 260-horsepower 2.4-liter turbocharged SUBARU BOXER engine if you're so inclined. This allows it to promise greater horsepower than the CR-V, making it a vehicle that can easily power through any obstacle.

Handling

The Outback features our standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, improving your handling every time you're on the road. The RAV4 offers AWD performance across its models. The CR-V lets you equip AWD performance for an extra cost.

Technology

Each of these models offers its own version of infotainment technology. Our Subaru STARLINK® Multimedia system, paired with the 12.1-inch touchscreen in the Outback, delivers an improved user experience that makes the RAV4 and CR-V jealous.

Ground Clearance

The Subaru Outback offers more standard and available ground clearance than the competition. It has a standard 8.7 inches of ground clearance, but if you choose the Wilderness model, you can enjoy up to 9.5 inches of ground clearance instead.
