Subaru is a name that is associated by most with adventure. With an eco-friendly company and car lineup, Subaru has built a culture of taking care of our environment as well as giving back. One of the most popular vehicles in Subaru’s lineup is the Outback. This roomy adventure vehicle is great for families and adventurers alike. They also tend to last and retain their value better than other vehicles.
What’s New in the 2021 Subaru Outback?
The new 2022 Subaru Outback does have some new features. However, since the 2020 model got a complete overhaul, there really has only been one notable change. There are three features that have now been made standard across all trim levels. All outback trim levels now come standard with a rear-seat reminder, adaptive headlamps, and a passenger seatbelt warning light and chime.
While these are simple additions to the trim levels, they do increase the overall value of even the base model.
2021 Subaru Outback Specs & Features
When it comes to engines the Subaru Outback boasts two choices. They are both flat four-cylinder engines, but one is a 182-hp 2.5-liter and the optional engine is a 260-hp turbocharged 2.4-L. Both engines are a good choice. The basic option does offer a better fuel economy with less power while the turbocharged option has more power in the acceleration, something that affects the fuel economy. The basic engine gets a combined fuel economy of 27 MPG while the turbocharged entice has a combined 24 MPG.
Every Outback comes standard with AWD with a towing capacity of 2700 lbs. If drivers opt for the turbocharged engine then the towing capacity increases to 3500 lbs.
The interior design is not something that wows drivers but it is functional and has a high ceiling. This makes for a more comfortable ride. All of the models come with features such as heated front seats, dual-zone climate control, USB ports throughout the cabin, and a power-adjustable driver’s seat.
The tech is impressive with two stacked infotainment screens that allow for Apple CarPlay and Android Play integration. There are other options that come on the higher trim levels like navigation and a WiFi hotspot. As far as safety features are concerned, all of the trim levels come with the EyeSight suite of safety features.
