You'll Like This Car If...

Few vehicles on the market can equal the Subaru Outback's ability to conquer tough terrain while simultaneously delivering carlike fuel economy. Safety buffs will appreciate its perfect crash test mar

You May Not Like This Car If...

Those who wish to tow more than 3,000-pounds or frequently carry more than five passengers should begin their search for a new vehicle with a conventional mid-size SUV like the Chevrolet Equinox, Toyo

How it Drives

If fuel economy takes precedent over quick acceleration, the 2013 Subaru Outback's 2.5-liter four with the continuously variable transmission (CVT) is your best bet. The 173-horsepower engine has to work a bit, but once up to speed, the CVT finds and holds the engine's peak torque, providing a good balance of response and efficiency. The CVT does take some getting used to, as there are no discernible gearshifts like a traditional automatic.

"I work for a Sales Company which has me on the road for approx 45k miles/yr. I have had my 2012 Outback for almost 1 year and I really enjoy the comfortable ride. Heated Leather seats are GREAT for the minus teen temps here in Upstate NY. I have had 3 Escapes,1 Liberty and 1 Forrester. There is no better, comfortable ride than the Outback! The Bluetooth, IPhone hook up is user Friendly and helps me communicate with customers while on the fly without worry of getting a ticket for being on the phone while driving. I have had ZERO problems and I have 41k on this Outback already. In 55MPH zones I'm averaging 30 MPG On the Interstate approx. 28.5. I would buy an Outback again!"

"Outback is a great snow car and has lots of room. We like the leather seats. Front seats could be a little better padded and a tad longer. Ride is good but suspension does hit bottom at times over some road hazards. It is underpowered but we are generally ok with that. Have not seen the mileage it was suppose to get but perhaps after the break in period it will get better"
