2018 Subaru Outback consumer reviews

I chose this car after test driving Ford, Lexus, Mazda, Toyota, and Honda crossover equivalents. Hands down best drive, visibility, power, quiet, comfort. I got one with the 3.6 6-cylinder engine. A lot quieter than any turbo 4 cylinder and far better low end torque and power.

I certainly enjoy my Subaru , especially for the reason that it is extremely safe for children, as I am a full time nanny! Very quiet when I am driving as well!

I traded my 2013 Subaru WRX for the 2018 Subaru Outback due to a growing family, space needed for road trips, and a vehicle that can perform off the road. The comfort features of the Outback is great, thick seats, ergonomically correct buttons and heated seats. The outback is very capable traveling in snow and ice, the AWD system keeps the Outback where it should be. I would definitely purchase a Subaru as a first car for my youngest children.

Overall very impressed with this vehicle. I've been eyeing the newer model Outbacks for a while and finally decided to jump on a deal. The vehicle meets my every need. The wife and I wanted a dependable car for a daily driver as well extremely safe and the Outback has it. Even more, it has the room we need for possible future kiddos, ability to tow small trailers, room for camping and light off-road abilities to get us to our favorite fishing and camping spots. The Outback was an obvious choice for us to fit all our requirements.

Our 1st Suburu (2018 Outback Touring 2.1l) and we're over the top in love. Having owned quite the variety of suv's, trucks and cars we do believe we've found "the one". Beautiful interior, safe, spacious, comfortable, a blast to drive, great mpg, awesome sound system and technology. Love the high ground clearance and all wheel drive. Low center of gravity makes it hug the curves and gives easy entry and exit. So happy to own our Suburu.

Only owned for five weeks, but like all the safety features - blind spot detection, cross traffic alert, lane departure alert, adaptive cruise control. Great headlines in illuminating the road. Comfortable seats, heated leather front and back, storage compartment a good size for golf clubs. MPG about 25 with mainly non-highway driving, decent. Visuals good.

I've had a 2003, 2010 and now the 2018 Outback. I loved the 2003. That car was a workhorse and I put it through it's paces. It was reliable for everything I needed. I used to joke that the car had a "tame black hole" in it, due to all the stuff I could haul. I didn't like the changes in the 2010 by comparison. It didn't handle as well, was much bigger on the outside, but no bigger inside. It was still reliable, but I wasn't in love with the car. The 2018 is amazing. My inner geek is in heaven with all the technological improvements. I approve of all of the information available to me at the touch of a finger. Safety has taken the priority spot with this vehicle. The hands free for the cell phone and text functions should be in every vehicle. I have done long drives in it comfortably and it seems that they have re-installed my "tame black hole" as I've been able to fit more stuff into it during moves than one would think possible. Like my 2003, it seems to be part snowmobile, as it handles every weather situation admirably.

I need an all wheel drive with good economy and this car fits the need. Subaru has been a part of my family since 1979 and they are an outstanding value.

This is the second Outback I have owned, and I am totally pleased. Great comfort, Great gas mileage, Great car. And a fun to drive too.

I love everything about the Outback. Its stylish, dependable, comfortable, turns on a dime, and fits my entire family. The car practically drives itself. My friends are sooooooooo jelous. I started at Subaru for the safety rating which is no. 1
