2022 Subaru Outback Customer Reviews

Pros

• Ride and Handling

  I test drove many popular cars, the Subaru Outback Touring model far exceeded the feel and handling of Toyotas, Fords, Nissans, Kias, Hundai and others. very smooth handling, turns easily on a dime, has the pep to be peppy just when you want, visibility and cabin features with backup and side obstructions well thought thru. This is my favorite part, I feel like I have the best car I have ever had, and I am proud to drive it and show off to friends. it is so nice to get away from all black interiors! Well done!

• Reliability

  I was told before my first purchase of a Subaru that three times lives were saved in 3 car crashes that rolled the cars...Subaru protected the people inside! I feel safe in mine!

• Technology and Entertainment

  I like the big computer screen for maps and apps. pretty easy to operate.

Cons

• Technology and Entertainment

  The computer has its glitches. The touch screen isn't always sensitive, adjusting air temp and flow sometimes takes more touches, the car thinks driver B is sometimes sitting in the driver seat, when in fact it is Driver A. I keep the engine running also, I don't like the option when stopped and engine turns off, weird start-up motion, distracting.

Pros

• Ride and Handling

  Low center of gravity helps this car hug the road. A nice balance of daily commuter and light to medium off road handling. Powertrain offers good mpg and is very peppy for a four cylinder.

• Cargo Space

  Plenty of cargo space in the back and the back row lies completely flat for bigger loads.

• Reliability

  Legendary quality and reliability! This year even beat out Toyota, enough said 😤😁

Cons

• Technology and Entertainment

  The infotainment screen is laggy but not a deal breaker

Pros

• Fuel Economy

• Weather Versatility

  Drives great in rain

Cons

• Dashboard

  Still not used to it...sometimes my music or book on tape will come on when I get in car and when I turn it off, it immediately comes back on. Distracting when I'm trying to use the map for directions... I'm sure there is a solution, just hard to find in manual.
