The all new Outback appears more rugged and adventurous than ever before, designed to stimulate the intellectual curiosity of new journeys and adventures. Now offered in two unique trim grades, Field and Touring, the Outback offers more choice to suit more lifestyles. The Field derivative is differentiated by its lean towards adventure where the Touring model adopts a more urban approach in design. Field models sport more black and green trim treatment. The Field model is also fitted with 18-inch black metallic alloy wheels, black silica painted underguards, black roof rails with green accents, black door mirror caps, black OUTBACK lettering on the rear and green OUTBACK lettering on the side guards.

The new Outback has the largest cabin to date with improvements in legroom, shoulder room and cargo floor room. Overall boot volume is 522-litres with the rear seats in place and 1267-litres with the seats folded flat. The rear of the Outback now also features a height-adjustable cover so that owners are still able to cover even taller items in the rear. The cargo area features cargo hooks arranged throughout the area as well as side nets for easy storage. A 12V power socket is also found in the rear cargo area too. In a first ever technology introduction, the rear tailgate now offers a hands-free opening function.

The Subaru Outback Field and Touring versions are both offered with a more powerful 2.5-litre direct injection Boxer® Engine. Power is 138kW and maximum torque is 245Nm. The engine is mated to a lightweight Lineartronic® CVT transmission that features an 8-speed manual mode as well that is operable via paddle shifts behind the steering wheel.

In a first ever technology introduction, the rear tailgate now offer hands free opening function by placing a hand directly in front of the rear Subaru logo on the centre of the tailgate. It’s a convenient and easy way to gain access to the boot.

Subaru’s Award-Winning EyeSight® Driver Assistance system is standard on both new Outback grades. The system in the Outback is the most advanced assistance system ever made and greatly enhances what is already a safe vehicle.
