2019 Subaru Outback Review

If you like to get out and get moving in the Oneida and Liverpool areas, you should consider the Subaru Outback for your next set of wheels. The team at Bill Rapp Subaru thinks this SUV is a great pick for local drivers, as you'll see in our 2019 Subaru Outback review.

Not only does it bring impressive power and handling capabilities to the greater Syracuse area roadways, it's also packed full of high-tech driver-assist technologies, and features a flexible cargo area.

Subaru Outback Performance Review

When you get behind the wheel of the 2019 Outback, you can expect some notable performance and handling features. For example, Standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (AWD) comes standard with this SUV to help improve your handling during tricky driving situations.

This system works by actively monitoring your roadway conditions and automatically redistributing torque as necessary among all four wheels to improve your grip.

This technology is taken a step further with standard X-MODE®. This optimizes your engine output and transmission ratio to reduce wheelspin and improve traction on low-friction surfaces, like snowy roads.

The AWD system works together with the low-end torque of the standard 2.5L Subaru BOXER® I-4 engine that delivers 175 horsepower and 174 lb-ft of torque. If you need even more power, you can upgrade to the available 3.6L Subaru BOXER® V6 engine that generates 256 horsepower and 247 lb-ft of torque.

Standard Safety Technology in the 2019 Outback

The 2019 Subaru Outback makes safety standard by including the EyeSight® suite of driver assist technologies on every trim level. This suite offers the following features:

• Adaptive Cruise Control
• Pre-Collision Braking
• Lane Departure and Sway Warning
• Lane Keep Assist

These systems all work together to help you stay aware of your surroundings and commute more safely. Pre-Collision Braking, for example, assists city drivers by scanning up ahead for potential hazards, like slower-moving traffic. If detected, it'll automatically apply the brakes if necessary to attempt to prevent an impact.

Lane Keep Assist can also help you stay in your intended lane of travel. It does this by gently steering you back between the lines if the Lane Departure and Sway Warning system sense that you've drifted.

Subaru Outback Flexible Cargo Area

When you're packing up for a weekend away, you'll likely find that the versatile cargo area is convenient to work with. If you have all five seats filled, you'll still have 35.5 cubic feet of cargo space for all the essentials.

However, if you fold the rear seat down flat, you can fill up a 73.3-cubic-foot loading space. The 60/40 split-folding rear seat allows you to optimize your space between cargo and passengers as necessary.

If you need even more room for kayaks, bikes, skis, or anything else, the 2019 Outback comes standard with roof rails with crossbars that can hold bulkier items. They fold away for easy storage when not in use.
