2024 Outback Good Value

the thing about buying a Subaru was that a new one was less than a used car (I was pricing out Volvo V90s). I traded in a Crosstrek so I am familiar with Subaru - and think their reliability is solid. I needed a larger cargo space and the 2024 Outback is a good size (I have an 80 lb. setter that I want to drive around and not have him slobbering on my head rest). I now have ample cargo space and not a huge car

A great car

This is without a doubt the most comfortable, smoothest-riding, easy to drive car I've owned (except maybe my first car '63 Chevy). The Premium model has quite enough "extras" like power seats, heated mirrors, interactive screen. It's too early to rate reliability, as I've only had it for a month, but based on friends' 10-year old models, I have total confidence in it.

Auto engine shutdoff is HORRIBLE

2024 Outback Wilderness. Very fun car except 2 glaring issues. The transmission is horrible. It lags when you want acceleration and it lags when you’re trying to come to a stop. The second is completely on Subaru; the auto engine stop cannot be permanently shut off. This “gas saving” feature has almost caused me multiple accidents it’s insane it’s still legal. Trying to merge into traffic? Let me shut your engine right before you’re trying to merge!

2024 Outback XT

I traded in my 2017 Outback Limited with 100K and bought the new 2024 XT. This car is so much quieter and has a great ride. Nice that everything is still in the same place. Some new additions to safety and comfort that are appreciated. Great car so far! Having the turbo engine cuts down a bit on the mileage, but it's worth it to have that extra power...

Trouble free

Perfect for me and wife. I can load up mulch in cargo area-I like the ground clearance (for Nantucket dirt roads) also easier exit with elevated seat. All three outbacks came thru perfect- no mechanical repair issues.

4th Subaru

This is my fourth Subaru and my third Outback with the Touring trim. Needless to say, we love the quality and reliability of the Outback. All of my Subarus have held their value consistently over the years. The 2024 Outback has some new features that I really appreciate. This car is loaded with safety features that make you feel protected out on the road. Check one out. You won’t be disappointed!

Subaru Outback Touring XT

So far I have been extremely pleased with my purchase. The Outback drives well, looks good, and is economical with gas mileage! Buy one for yourself and see.

Wonderful car, and great dealer relations.

Driven 1500 miles now on my new 2024 Outback, and really love it! Very high tech, comfortable to drive, handles beautifully. Also very impressed with my dealer, Five Star Subaru in Grapevine, TX. And Subaru corporation. Lots of follow up, checking in with me about the car, going back over all the tech. Extremely pleased.
