Every 2023 Subaru Outback comes with symmetrical all-wheel drive to help you get where you need to go, no matter the conditions. With the standard 2.4L Boxer® engine, this means you'll be able to get up to an EPA-estimated 32 mpg on the highway or a total of 28 mpg combined.
It's not just the standard AWD that makes the Outback built for adventure. It also has 8.7 inches of ground clearance to help you tackle rough terrain but if you need more, take a look at the Wilderness trim, which ups that to 9.5 inches alongside some rugged design details. If your camper, ATV, or boat needs to come with you into nature, you'll be pleased to know the Outback Wilderness and its turbocharged engine can tow up to an estimated 3,500 lbs when properly equipped.
You might want to rough it in the wilderness but you can still have all the conveniences of a modern SUV. All models include Subaru's Eyesight driver-assist technology with features such as pre-collision braking, lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and more. On top of this, you'll also enjoy standard smartphone connectivity, automatic climate control, and a rearview camera. Look out for the Outback Limited trim if you love music as it comes with a premium Harman Kardon® sound system.
With 109 cu-ft of total passenger volume, everyone has space to stretch out. Front-seat passengers get 42.8 inches of legroom while those in the back get 39.5 inches. This makes the Subaru Outback comfortable for everyone, no matter how long the trip. With a car full of passengers, you've still got 32.6 cu-ft in the trunk for all their stuff. If you need a bit more space, you can fold the split-folding rear seats for a maximum cargo volume of 75.6 cu-ft.
With six trims and two engine options, you're bound to find the 2023 Outback that suits you. The Onyx Edition, Limited, Wilderness, and Touring models can be found with the optional 260-hp turbocharged engine—look out for the XT designation. All other models come standard with the 182-hp 2.5L engine. The top-tier Touring is for anyone who loves little luxuries like ventilated seats and a 180-degree front-view monitor. If adventure is more your style, the Wilderness trim features water-repellant upholstery, roof rails, and heated rear seats.
