Chances are if you've looked into buying a new crossover SUV, you've come across two of the best selling Subaru models, the Outback and the Forester. At first glance, both vehicles appear to be very similar to each other, and for the most part, they are. Both offer a build with 8.7-inches of ground clearance, as well as standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, allowing you to extend any journey onto the road less travelled. They also offer similar technology options like Starlink multimedia system and Eyesight driver assist technology. Where the two models differ, however, is with interior space, features, and engine power.
The main differences between the Outback and Forester can be attributed mainly to space and refinement within the cabin. Both are considered to be great family options but the Outback offers slightly more passenger volume and storage space, giving it the advantage for all of your spacious needs. Both the Forester and Outback both offer two impressive engine options as well, but the Outback offers five more horsepower at base model level and six more horsepower in the available 3.6-liter engine. The Outback is also available with exclusive features like Java Leather-Trimmed Upholstery that isn't available in any other Subaru model.
