2024 Subaru Outback Wilderness 4dr SUV AWD (2.4L 4cyl Turbo CVT)
9 of 12 people found this review helpful
The Outback in its Wilderness trim is a great vehicle for me. I do some camping and riding around on forest roads and desert dirt roads as well as daily commuting. This SUV fits the bill. It has a great ride around town and its X-Mode is more than capable off road. I do wish it came with more sturdy tires but when these are in need of replacement I will find some kevlar-belted ones. Not having bought a new vehicle in 12 years, the technology in the Outback was both impressive and somewhat intimidating at first. The Turbo is the way to go on the Subaru lineup it provides the necessary power to handle passing on the freeway as well as hills. I do love it!

2024 Subaru Outback Onyx Edition XT 4dr SUV AWD (2.4L 4cyl Turbo CVT)

We have the 2024 Onyx XT (Turbo) Outback. It has all the things that make Subarus great cars that last a long time. But the 2.4 liter 260 horsepower turbo adds an element of fun and performance that I did not expect. Zowie! Another element that favorably impressed me: Handling and steering. Way more tight and precise than I expected. Mix that with the all-wheel drive and the turbo power and you can have a darn good time on twisty roads. Despite its power and sporty handling, we’ve also been pleased with its fuel economy. Both city and highway. Our dealer is also great. 👍

Terrible drivers seat

Handles well, drivers seat has power everything but comfort. 150lb driver and built for 300. Assistance driving pulls you into the sides of trucks, scary. Bought for the open road, does a poor job, will trade it in after 300 miles driving. Handles well in city traffic but the lag time is terrible.

2024 Outback things I don't like

2024 Subaru Outback Limited XT 4dr SUV AWD (2.4L 4cyl Turbo CVT)

I bought a new Outback Limited XT in July and have a few complaints. The Harmon Kardon sound system is pathetic. The outside wind noise in the cab is extensive. I took it in and they said they couldn't find anything wrong. When you have to turn the radio up loud when driving 60mph because of the wind noise that's not normal. The display console is a terrible design. It is a dust and spot magnet always dirty and needing cleaning. The backup camera screen is too tiny to see easily. There is an annoying message on the entire console screen every time you start the car to tell you to drive safely that stays on until you put the care in Drive. The dash controls for the rear hatch and the USB ports are almost inaccessible. Some moron designed them under a ledge on the dash that blocks the driver's view of these items. They put the USB ports in this tiny cubby hole in the console that you can barely get your hand in. Terrible design. The console storage box is too tiny. The car rides nice and is comfortable but the interior dash design is not user friendly. I thought I was buying a premium vehicle and I would not buy this car again and will be trading it in after 2 years.

Thirsty and noisy

Have had the car for a year now, never seen it go over 20 mph even with no traffic highway driving. At six months it started to have intermittent rattling on the driver's side door. Service at Subaru Pacific Hathorne, CA has deteriorated as well. This is my 2nd Subaru and will likely be the last.
