Performance & Capability
Under the hood, the 2026 Subaru Outback Premium features a 2.5L H-4 direct injection, DOHC, variable valve control, regular gasoline engine with 180HP paired with an 8-speed Lineartronic CVT. Power is managed through Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, delivering steady traction across wet pavement, gravel, and snow. Drivers can also engage the selectable X-MODE drivetrain system to optimize wheel control on slick surfaces or steep inclines. A four-wheel independent suspensionâ"utilizing front struts and a double wishbone rear layoutâ"ensures a planted, comfortable ride quality over uneven pavement. Efficiency remains a strong point, with an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 25 MPG in the city and 31 MPG on the highway.
Technology & Connectivity
Inside the cabin, advanced intuitive electronics keep you connected and focused on the road ahead. The center dash features a Subaru 12.1-inch primary touchscreen display complemented by a 12.3-inch digital and analog gauge cluster display. Driver integration is seamless thanks to wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto mirroring, Bluetooth handsfree wireless device connectivity, and voice-activated controls for audio and climate systems. Passengers stay powered up with 4 USB ports strategically placed throughout the cabin, while SiriusXM with 360L plays through a 6-speaker audio system. Advanced driver-assist systems include EyeSight Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Centering, Blind Spot Warning, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Reverse Automatic Braking, and DriverFocus Distraction Mitigation. You can get pre-approved for financing online to streamline your buying process before stepping into the dealership.
