Specs at a Glance

The 2025 Subaru Outback remains one of the most versatile midsize SUVs you can buy. It's not only a safe and comfortable option for families, but also tough enough to take off the beaten path. For those considering the Premium versus Wilderness trims, here's how they compare.

Performance

The Outback Premium runs on a 2.5-liter Boxer four-cylinder engine producing 182 horsepower-more than enough power for daily commutes and long-distance travel. Its continuously variable automatic transmission is designed for efficiency, and Subaru's Symmetrical AWD system comes standard for added confidence. X-MODE with Hill Descent Control further enhances its capability on rough roads.

The Wilderness trim delivers a stronger punch with its 2.4-liter turbocharged Boxer four-cylinder engine generating 260 horsepower. Built for serious off-road use, it features 9.5 inches of ground clearance, Yokohama GEOLANDAR all-terrain tires for superior traction, and an advanced AWD system with low-range gearing to tackle more rugged terrain.

Appearance

The Premium trim shows off a sophisticated and practical design. Raised roof rails make it easy to carry extra gear on road trips, while LED Steering Responsive Headlights and turn-signal-equipped mirrors add style and safety.

Meanwhile, the Wilderness trim boasts a more adventurous look. A protective front skid plate shields the underside on rocky trails, and an anti-glare hood decal improves visibility in bright sunlight. Distinctive 18-inch black alloy wheels and a reinforced roof rack emphasize its rugged character.

Features

Inside the Outback Premium, comfort and convenience are key. Subaru's Starlink multimedia system with an 11.6-inch HD screen supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Dual-zone climate control and a power-adjustable driver's seat enhance everyday usability.

The Wilderness trim adds exclusive upgrades ideal for outdoor enthusiasts. A 12-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system delivers high-quality sound, while water-resistant upholstery is perfect for active lifestyles.
