I’ve driven Subaru Outbacks for the last 25 years. When it was time for a new car, I knew I wanted another Subaru, but thought I’d try a different model this time. I test drove 4 vehicles which were all fantastic — but when I sat down inside the 2025 Outback XT, I fell in love all over again. Driving it was a dream: comfort, ease, handling, everything I’ve always loved about the Outback but better! The touchscreen is intuitive, with 98% of what you need to control right in front of you. Safety features all over the car make it comforting to drive. Best of all, it’s FUN to drive! Thank you, Subaru, for keeping love alive!

The remote start app is incredibly frustrating! When I purchased my Subaru in November 2024, having a reliable remote start feature was my top priority. I love the car, but I expected to be able to start it remotely with ease and without any stress. If the app can’t function properly with any phone, then please return to providing a physical key with a remote start. My husband uses an Apple device and has no trouble starting the car with his phone, but my new Samsung S24 rarely works. It often fails with fingerprint recognition and won’t work at all with face ID! Initially, the app allowed users to enter a PIN for quick access, but they removed that option, leaving only the fingerprint and face ID methods. After spending this much money, it’s disappointing that the remote start feature doesn’t work smoothly. This situation makes no sense! Overall, I am a very disappointed customer.
adequate ride, all electric controls suck

it is a station wagon, meant to haul dogs, groceries, kids, and maybe take camping etc.great in snow and rain, handles nice. the worst thing is how long it takes to heat up the interior, my feet on the driver side never get warm. MPG is not as advertised, and i have had PSI in tires checked, watched my foot on the accelerator, etc and dealer checked car out as well. nothing in the first 5000 miles is horrible (except the heat issue) it does just about everything adequately. accelerates ok not gonna win any races or overtake cars without a plan on the open road but most cars are like that. especially if you are watching the mpg.(turbo option is available at the cost of MPG but worth the money if you want the zippy engine) controls for environmental system are small icons on the screen and too low on the screen-bring back physical quick and easy to use controls! the radio cannot be turned off, you have to set the media to Bluetooth or use another trick to avoid the "noise" if you don't want sound.
