The 2024 Subaru Outback is a 2-row midsize SUV with a lower profile, standard AWD, and a strong reputation for safety and resale value. Pricing starts at $28,895.<\/p>\n
The 2024 Subaru Outback is truly something different. Whether you want to call it a wagon or an SUV, the Outback has the practical benefits of a roomy and flexible interior, excellent safety scores, standard all-wheel drive (AWD), and all of the quirky charm we love about the Subaru brand. Many cars and SUVs have AWD, but the Outback has some serious off-road capabilities, especially the adventurous Wilderness model. The Outback is one-of-a-kind to some degree, but it competes as Subaru\u2019s The 2024 Subaru Outback starts at $28,895. The popular Premium trim starts at $31,195, and the\u00a0loaded\u00a0Touring XT model starts at $42,795. If you want the turbocharged engine, the most affordable XT model starts at $39,360.<\/p>\n Similarly priced SUVs include the\u00a0Hyundai These are manufacturer\u2019s suggested retail prices (MSRP) and don\u2019t include the $1,295 factory-to-dealer delivery fee (destination charge).<\/p>\n Before buying an Outback, check the Kelley Blue Book Fair Purchase Price to know what you should really pay.<\/p>\n You might like:<\/strong> The 2024 Kia Seltos review: A great SUV gets even better<\/p>\n The Subaru Outback is the reigning champion for KBB\u2019s\u00a0Best Resale Value award\u00a0in its class. Recouping more money when you sell can mean more money for your next down payment.<\/p>\n The Subaru Outback just got a mid-cycle refresh for the 2023 model year. The 2024 model brings the Wilderness model up to speed with\u00a0updated styling\u00a0in-line with last year\u2019s update. Another update this year is a standard heated steering wheel on the Onyx Edition, Onyx Edition XT, and Wilderness trims.<\/p>\n Also see: <\/strong>The new 2023 Honda Pilot is bigger, more powerful and now has a rugged off-road model, too<\/p>\n In our experience, the Subaru Outback strikes an excellent balance of on-road comfort and off-road capability. Even if you never venture away from the pavement, the Outback serves a compliant ride and easy driveability.<\/p>\n The performance from the standard engine is, shall we say, relaxed. We find it adequate for daily commuting and errand running, and it\u2019s strong enough to be comfortable on the highway. The enthusiast in us strongly prefers the optional turbocharged engine and its confident acceleration, but the standard engine makes more sense for most drivers.<\/p>\n We\u2019re always impressed when we have the pleasure of driving a Subaru Outback off-road. The Outback\u2019s tall ground clearance, standard all-wheel drive, and favorable approach and departure angles make it slightly more advanced in its off-road skills than the average SUV. It\u2019s especially adventurous in the Wilderness trim with even higher ground clearance, all-terrain tires, and enhanced X-Mode.<\/p>\n Plus: <\/strong>The 2023 Subaru Solterra reviewed: Price, range and more for this new electric SUV<\/p>\n The wagon-like body of the Subaru Outback yields a spacious interior. We can confirm that the rear seats are spacious enough to be comfortable for adults, and there\u2019s tons of cargo space. Fold down the rear seats and you can fit some big stuff in the Outback.<\/p>\n The interior materials vary depending on the trim. Cloth upholstery is standard, leather is optional, and durable StarTex water-repellant upholstery comes with the Onyx Edition and Wilderness models. Regardless of trim, the Outback is a comfortable car.<\/p>\n A vertically-oriented infotainment system with an 11.6-inch screen is standard on all but the base trim. This system comes with a bit of a learning curve compared to the simpler system in the base model, but we like the list of features that includes SiriusXM, HD Radio, and wireless Android Auto\/Apple Subaru admits that the aesthetics of the Outback are inspired by a hiking boot. This wagon-like SUV has a rugged look with standard raised roof rails, generous body cladding, and 8.7 inches of ground clearance. The Wilderness trim has an even more outdoorsy look with revised bumpers, more ground clearance, yellow accents, and black wheels with all-terrain tires.<\/p>\n You might like: <\/strong>The redesigned 2024 Chevy Trax: a roomy, affordable crossover SUV with zippy driving dynamics<\/p>\n Standard AWD<\/strong> EyeSight driver assist technology<\/strong> Starlink multimedia system<\/strong> X-Mode<\/strong> Available turbo engine<\/strong>

Our favorite features and tech<\/strong><\/h2>\n
In classic Subaru fashion, all-wheel drive is standard on every Outback, giving it the capability to back up its go-anywhere aesthetic.<\/p>\n
Every Outback features a comprehensive set of driver assist and safety tech, including automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane-keep assist, automatic high beams, and adaptive cruise control.<\/p>\n
The Starlink infotainment system is available with an 11.6-inch screen loaded with features like SiriusXM, HD Radio, and wireless Android Auto\/Apple CarPlay. It\u2019s full-featured, but not the most intuitive to operate at first.<\/p>\n
X-Mode comes standard on every Outback, and it optimizes the AWD system to maximize traction in off-road driving. The Onyx Edition and Wilderness models have a more advanced Dual-Function X-Mode with more off-road drive modes.<\/p>\n
The turbocharged engine in the XT and Wilderness models makes the Outback more exciting to drive on-road and off.<\/p>\n
