Used 2015 Subaru Outback Consumer Reviews
Outback 2015
The main reason I purchase the 2015 Outback 2.5 was the cargo capacity and the gas mileage 25/33. Fuel economy... initially was poor, but got better over time. Otherwise, great car. The ultimate compliment... I would purchase another one.

POOR FUEL MILEAGE
There are a few reasons that sold me on my 2015 Subaru out back with 2.5L one of them was the posted 25 city 33 Hyw fuel mileage (its a farce) my average mileage is 23.7 according to the data from the car its self, if I do the math its even worse by a few tenths. I wanted to give the car a chance to break in a little before I wrote about it. I have had the car for one year now and have 10,000 miles on it, just did a 500 mile round trip and got 25 mpg SAD!!!! The other disappointment is the poor sound quality from the speaker phone/bluetooth very difficult to hear the person that is talking in the car. The voice command NAV system also is less than desirable very frustrating to use and most the time can't recognize the command. Just for the record I have a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado that has these features and they work flawlessly. Ok now for the pros... my outback it is very conferrable to drive my wife and I took it on a 2500 mile road trip and did some 8 - 10 hour day's with no problem very roomy, also love the AWD handles great in all conditions, I have the eye sight option love/hate relationship but over all works great with cruise control and on long trips is very nice.

You will love this car
This is the first Subaru I have owned and love it. It is comfortable, fuel efficient, quiet, and the build quality is better than anything I have owned. We looked at the Toyota RAV 4, and Honda CRV. Both were loud, under powered and clunky. The Outback drives extremely well, has a good sound system (not great), quiet, and solid. I too have not heard the noises that others have talked about, but would suggest that they not have their roof rack cross bars across the roof. The only Con I can think of is getting used to shifting from reverse to drive takes a second or so. I loved mine so much I recommended Subaru to my wife who ended up getting rid of her Toyota and trading it for a Legacy.

Alignment Please!
Bought new 2015 Outback Premium 2.5i and took it to trusted alignment shop to have better tires installed. Mechanic said car was way out of alignment and adjusted it for me. I really wish Subaru would not have transferred this expense from their factory to me.

Third outback
Pleasantly surprised by comfort, mileage, and handling of car. Eye sight isc helpful searching blind spots. Good acceleration with 6 cylinder. Comfortable seats. Very good long distance car. Quiet. Still handles well and much better lights then previous Outbacks. The universal criticisms for the clock and outside temp are true, difficult to find. Good bad weather car as advertised. Still happy with car. Drives well. Eyesight clearly helpful. At 43000 miles. No issues with car. Drives well on high way 650 mile road trip. Speed control does well and keeps distances well. No improvement in mileage as engine breaks to keep distance. Overall very happy with car. Eye sight is worth it. At 50,000 miles still enjoy car. No unusual maintenance issues
