Design

Part of the reason we recommend the new 2018 Subaru Outback to drivers who want to take on the great outdoors is because of its design. With a ground clearance of 8.7-inches, you can maneuver over objects you will likely find on your drives down the Santa Fe National Forest Scenic Byway and other local trails with ease. Its standard projector-beam headlights provide a crisp view of what lies ahead too, though even brighter LED Steering Responsive Headlights are offered as an upgrade on higher trims. Select trims are also available with a power moonroof so your passengers can get a better view of sunlit or starry skies. Inside, there is even ample room for your excursion gear. Lower the seats, and this SUV has a maximum volume of 73.3 cubic feet, but you can always utilize the roof rails if you need another storage solution.

Performance

Of course, its design is only one part of the equation. The new 2018 Subaru Outback is a suitable choice for the driver-turned-explorer also because of its proficiency. You can look forward to smooth agility thanks to the SUBARU BOXER® engine—presented as both 175 horsepower 2.5L and 256 horsepower 3.6L options—that provides consistent energy. Paired with a Lineartronic® CVT as a standard, it not only maintains better efficiency but can tow 2,700 maximum pounds too! As with all new Subaru models, this SUV has a symmetrical all-wheel drive unit that works alongside Hill Descent Control and other standard reinforcements to increase your handling and control out on the road. Ultimately, the system is built to make the most of its capabilities.

Technology

Last but not least, the 2018 Subaru Outback is a choice companion for any drive because of the smart innovations that come with it. Take for instance the SUBARU STARLINK™ Multimedia system. With this tool, you can connect a compatible iOS or Android based smartphone to get direct access to apps for getting real-time data, streaming music, navigating around town, and more. Another good example is the Subaru EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology. This suite includes features like Lane Keep Assist which will work to prevent an accident and thereby keep you safe. In other words, this crossover is equipped with all the things that make traveling delightful.
