Subaru Outback (2015-2019) Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Copes well with bad weather thanks to permanent four-wheel drive | Doesn't have much appeal for fashion-conscious buyers |
| Plenty of room for people and luggage | Very limited choice of engines |
| The diesel delivers respectable economy | Not the sharpest estate to drive on tarmac |
Quick Summary
The Subaru Outback (2015-2019) is a rational, no-nonsense four-wheel drive estate car that prioritises ability over image. This fifth-generation model offers improved cabin quality and space compared to its predecessor, with a generous 559-litre boot and better interior finishing. It's available with either a 2.0-litre diesel or 2.5-litre petrol engine, both paired with manual or CVT transmissions, though neither is particularly punchy. The Outback excels in all-weather conditions and off-road capability, with a sophisticated all-wheel-drive system and superior ground clearance.
On tarmac, the Outback is somewhat underwhelming, with soft suspension that's harsh at low speeds and unsettled on faster roads. However, it's very capable off-road and nearly matches the Subaru Forester SUV in rough terrain. The diesel offers better mid-range pull for towing and superior fuel economy (mid-to-low 40s mpg), whilst the petrol is cheaper to insure but thirstier (mid-30s mpg). Safety is a strength, with the Eyesight suite of safety aids becoming standard from 2018. Annual servicing and a three-year warranty are standard Subaru practice.
Best for: Practical buyers prioritising all-weather dependability, those needing off-road capability, and families seeking spacious, straightforward transport.
Not ideal for: Fashion-conscious buyers, those seeking sharp driving dynamics, or buyers wanting a wide choice of engines and powertrains.
Comparison vs Key Rivals
| Vehicle | CarGurus Expert Rating | CarGurus User Rating | Good/Great deals % | Overall CarGurus Rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Subaru Outback | 3/5 | N/A | 29.1% | 3.7/5 |
| Audi A4 Avant | 4/5 | 5.0/5 | 34.6% | 4.4/5 |
| Volvo V60 Cross Country | 4/5 | 4.7/5 | 36.7% | 4.3/5 |
| Volkswagen Passat Alltrack | 4/5 | 4.5/5 | 33.6% | 4.3/5 |
The Verdict
You should buy the Outback if: You prioritise all-weather dependability, need off-road capability, or seek spacious, straightforward family transport without fashion-conscious styling.
Consider alternatives if: You want a prestige badge, sharp driving dynamics, or a wider choice of engines and powertrains.
Competitive Position: The Subaru Outback (2015-2019) occupies a unique position as a practical, all-weather estate car with genuine off-road ability. Whilst it trails rivals like the Audi A4 Avant and Volvo V60 Cross Country in expert and user ratings, it offers a different proposition—straightforward dependability over prestige. The Audi and Volvo provide superior driving dynamics and upmarket interiors, whilst the Volkswagen Passat Alltrack offers similar practicality. However, the Outback's permanent four-wheel drive, spacious interior, and capable off-road performance make it ideal for buyers prioritising substance over style and all-weather capability over sharp handling.
