Posted on February 20, 2024
The 2024 Subaru Outback is truly a unique offering in the sport utility space, a harmonious blend of adventurous spirit and practical utility. This model continues the legacy with a bold exterior design that is both striking and functional.
Outback Means Go-Anywhere Capability
The 2024 Subaru Outback offers two sophisticated powertrain options, catering to different driving preferences and needs. The first option is a 2.5-L Direct Injection SUBARU BOXER engine, delivering 182 hp and 176 lb-ft of torque. This naturally aspirated engine balances efficiency and performance, suitable for daily driving and light off-road adventures.
For those seeking more power, the Outback also offers a 2.4-L Turbocharged Direct Injection SUBARU BOXER engine. This turbocharged powerhouse generates 260 hp and a robust 277 lb-ft of torque. This option is ideal for drivers looking for more dynamic driving experiences and enhanced towing capabilities.
The Outback features the standard Subaru Symmetrical Full-Time AWD, X-MODE, and substantial ground clearance, ensuring go-anywhere capability. The 2024 Outback is built on the Subaru Global Platform, offering high ride quality and comfort.
Interior Design: Comfort and Technology Combined
The interior doesn't fall short either, with a focus on comfort, refinement, and space, making it an ideal companion for both everyday commutes and adventurous escapades. The cabin is designed for quietness, featuring added sound-deadening measures, high-end touches, and the latest technology.
The infotainment system varies by trim level, with dual 7-inch touchscreens in the Convenience trim and an impressive 11.6-inch touchscreen available in higher trims. Advanced climate control systems, varying from automatic to dual-zone, enhance passenger comfort. The seats, designed for long-haul support, range from 10-way to 12-way power-adjustable depending on the trim level. Exclusive to the Outback Wilderness is an interior treatment of gunmetal and anodized copper accents, emphasizing its rugged character.
Exterior Design: Rugged and Functional
The exterior of the 2024 Outback boasts a wider and more planted stance than its predecessors. Its rugged front fascia, grille, headlights, and body cladding are not just for aesthetics but also enhance its aerodynamic efficiency.
The Outback Wilderness version takes ruggedness a notch higher, with even more ground clearance and a design engineered for bigger adventures. Key exterior features include roof rails with swing-in-place crossbars, a power liftgate for easy cargo access, a power sunroof, and generous ground clearance to tackle various terrains. The vehicle is equipped with distinct aluminum alloy wheel packages and LED headlights and fog lights for improved visibility. The aerodynamics of the vehicle, including features like Active Grille Shutter, contribute to its efficiency and stability.
Safety and Advanced Technologies
A cornerstone of the 2024 Outback is the enhanced safety provided by the updated Subaru EyeSight Driver Assist system. New cameras improve detection capabilities, complemented by a standard wide-angle mono-camera for better peripheral vision. The Outback also comes equipped with Emergency Automatic Steering, adding another layer to its safety features.
