I bought a 2026 Outback Touring non turbo in Dec. 2025 and have driven 4400 miles.
I did not want the turbo and Im happy with the 180 hp engine. I dont tow and this engine, while maybe it sounds underpowered, I think its perfect. I am surpassing the mpg ratings. Last week I drove from Spokane to Seattle and averaged 40 mpg w 95% highway driving. Combination driving I get 27 mpg. The car is very comfortable w 12 way driver seat inc 4 way lumbar and a leg extender. You will be comfortable in this car. I LOVE the hands free driving feature. Its the cat's meow!! The interior is very logically laid out and easy to learn. The Harman Kardon sound system is really nice. I find this car is like an old friend... inviting and easy to get along with. I researched cars for over a year and I think I made the best choice.…

I like the new look and the infotainment screen is better then the previous generation I like the fact it has the old school shifter and not one of those goofy electronic shifters the ride is smooth and stable gas mileage is great it has lots of cargo area and a spare tire not one of those stupid repair kits and the price was affordable…

I had a 2016 Outback the I loved and put 200K miles on with only 475 dollars in unscheduled maintenance so, when it was time to get a new car, a Subaru outback was on the top of my list.
I have to admit when I first saw the new outback. I was a little disappointed that it didn’t have the Subaru wagon look, but after test driving the vehicle and being super impressed with it, I decided the non-wagon look was actually an advantage because you picked up so much more interior space. The main thing I like about the new outback is how much more refined it is then the previous models. It is super plush drives like 1 million bucks and I love the technology in the car. I’ve only put 1200 miles on my car, but I am absolutely in love with it. I bought the 26 outback touring without the turbo mainly because it has basically the same engine that I was so happy with my previous car. I will admit the car is not super punchy, but it does have adequate power. I suppose if you wanted a more punchy version, the turbo might be a good fit for you.…
