Specs at a Glance
The redesigned 2026 Subaru Outback remains a popular family vehicle.
The newly redesigned 2026 Subaru Outback continues its legacy as a favorite for modern families. Combining everyday refinement with the toughness needed for adventure, this midsize crossover is a versatile choice. Many shoppers will find themselves weighing the benefits of the Premium trim against the Limited trim. Here is a breakdown of how these two configurations stack up.
Performance
A shared powertrain drives both of these Outback versions. The vehicle is powered by a 2.5-liter Boxer four-cylinder engine known for its durability, delivering 180 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque. A smooth Lineartronic continuously variable transmission handles the power delivery. Drivers can also enjoy the eight-speed manual mode and paddle shifters for added control on the road.
Whether you choose the Premium or the Limited, you are getting a vehicle built for the trail. Every model comes standard with Subaru's Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. To help you tackle difficult terrain, the inclusion of X-MODE and Hill Descent Control ensures you have maximum grip on steep or slick surfaces.
Appearance
Even in its entry-level Premium form, the Outback is designed to impress. It features stylish 18-inch alloy wheels and sleek LED headlights as standard equipment. Rugged design elements like integrated crossbars on the roof rails and protective cladding emphasize its off-road capability. The Limited trim takes style a step further by offering alloy wheels with a sophisticated dark finish.
Features
The Premium trim is packed with enough technology and comfort to meet the demands of most drivers. At the center of the cabin is an 11.6-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless smartphone connectivity. High-value features like dual-zone climate control and heated front seats come standard. If your travels take you into the dirt, the StarTex water-repellent seating makes cleanup a breeze. You also get the peace of mind provided by the EyeSight safety technology and a convenient power tailgate.
Stepping up to the Limited trim brings a touch of luxury with its perforated leather-trimmed interior. Technology is upgraded with a Harman Kardon premium sound system and a wireless phone charger. Additionally, this trim provides built-in navigation, a heated steering wheel, and heated seats for rear passengers.
