Great car with superb safety features. This is our second Outback and the 2020 redesign was great.

Handles well in varying road coditions. Gets over 30 mpg on most trips. Easy oil change. All wheel drive is very effective and efficient. Interior has room for a lot of groceries, boards, etc.

This car served me well over the three years I owned it (2017-2020) as I just sold it this week due to high demand and prices for used cars. I loved the wagon and my friends were surprised I got rid of it. It's great for hauling dogs, people, and even queen sized mattresses (very proud that it fit). It's slow, but with good handling. It's safe, but not overly pushy - though the noises and beeps are pretty irritating. The only things I think that are important to consider about this car as issues are as follows: the A/C takes a long time to get cold (fixed this is 2018 MY), the touchscreen nav shows weird patterns when in the sunlight making it nearly unreadable, the doors don't auto lock (only car I've ever had not do that), and small trim pieces have not held up well (sunroof seals, red stickers on door locks, fake wood, etc.). Otherwise it's positives are great: seats fold down from trunk with ease, the power trunk is nice (though not super quick), the eyesight system works really well for road trips, and the engine is reliable.

I bought the 2015 outback LIMITED with Navi. I have owned over 2 dozen cars, having been in the car business with Honda for many years. This is the finest car of all I have owned! The Subaru company works harder at quality and design then even Honda or Toyota. Being the little guy makes them compete harder and it shows. Couldn't possibly be more Pleased!! 😀

After 142,000 trouble free miles we opted for a different color and bought a 2022 model! Subaru and their dealers are wonderful to deal with - honest and fair pricing! Took almost seven months for the new outback to appear - but worth the wait.
