00:00The 2024 Subaru Outback continues to be a top choice for those seeking adventure without
00:04sacrificing comfort. With standard all-wheel drive, a versatile interior, and rugged capabilities,
00:10it's no wonder this high-riding wagon remains one of Subaru's best sellers.
00:15New for 2024, the Wilderness trim gets updated styling and a standard heated steering wheel.
00:20Its rugged bumpers, increased ground clearance, and underbody skid plates make it the most
00:26off-road-ready Outback yet. But if you're more into appearance than capability,
00:29the Onyx Edition adds a sleek, dark trim and water-resistant seating.
00:34Inside, the Outback offers a spacious, practical cabin. With up to 75.6 cubic feet of cargo space
00:42and plenty of legroom, this isn't your typical cramped crossover. The Onyx Edition and Wilderness
00:47trims even come with a moonroof and Subaru's latest tech, including a massive 11.6-inch
00:53touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and Subaru's Starlink services. Under the
00:58hood, the Outback offers two engine options. The base 2.5-liter engine delivers 182 horsepower,
01:06perfect for daily drives but not exactly thrilling. If you want more power,
01:10the turbocharged 2.4-liter option ups the ante to 260 horsepower, shaving off over two seconds
01:16in the 0-to-60 sprint. Both come paired with a CVT, though it's not the most refined transmission
01:21in the segment. On the road, the Outback's smooth ride remains one of its best qualities.
01:26It effortlessly absorbs road imperfections, making long drives comfortable. However,
01:31while it's built for adventure, the Outback's performance on the pavement can feel less than
01:36inspiring, especially with its dull steering and some engine vibrations. As always, safety is a
01:42Subaru strong suit. The 2024 Outback comes standard with Subaru's EyeSight driver assistance system,
01:48including Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keeping Assist, and Front Automatic Emergency Braking.
01:54Higher trims add even more features like Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Automatic Braking.
02:00Whether you're hitting the trails or tackling daily commutes, the 2024 Subaru Outback blends
02:05versatility, safety, and rugged capability in a unique package. While its looks and handling
02:11may not be for everyone, there is no denying its practicality and all-weather confidence.
