A midsize utility vehicle with station wagon roots, the Subaru Outback delivers a blend of comfort, practicality, and drivability unmatched by class competitors. It's among the most well-rounded models in its segment and one of the few with real off-road credentials. And drivers from Manchester, IA, to Galena, IL, can find it here at Riley Subaru in Dubuque.

Performance

Most Subaru Outback models are set in motion by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder BOXER engine (182 horsepower, 176 pound-feet of torque). A Lineartronic® continuously variable transmission helps optimize responsiveness and efficiency, and Symmetrical All-Wheel-Drive comes standard for surefooted all-season handling and control. Looking for something with more under-the-hood motivation? Outback XT and Wilderness trims are equipped with a potent 2.4-liter turbo-four, boosting output to 260 horsepower and 277 pound-feet of torque.

Interior

The Outback's cabin is classy and capacious, with modern styling, high-quality materials, and nicely cushioned and supportive seats that provide long-distance comfort. It offers impressively spacious accommodations for up to five passengers, numerous small-item storage spaces, and 32.6 cubic feet for cargo behind the second row. When you need to maximize carrying capacity for a large errand or adventure, you can fold the 60/40-split rear seats, expanding the cargo area to 75.6 cubic feet.

Technology

Every 2023 Outback includes Subaru's intuitive STARLINK® infotainment system with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto smartphone integration, giving you convenient access to features like hands-free calls, Google or Apple Maps, streaming media, and more. Base models have dual 7-inch touchscreens, while all higher tiers get an 11.6-inch HD display with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto.

No matter which Outback configuration you choose, you'll enjoy enhanced convenience and peace-of-mind courtesy of Subaru EyeSight®, a system of cutting-edge technologies that monitors your surroundings, helps you better detect and respond to potential hazards, and even mitigates driving fatigue. Standard driver aids include:

  • Pre-Collision Braking System
