The Outback Wilderness is built for adventure with higher ground clearance, off-road-tuned suspension, skid plates, and all-terrain tires. It also has a turbocharged engine for enhanced performance, unique matte black hood decals, and special roof rails designed to handle extra weight, making it perfect for overlanding and off-road excursions. Additionally, the Outback Wilderness has a shorter final drive ratio, improving low-end torque and making it better suited for steep climbs and rough trails. Unlike the standard Outback, it also features advanced underbody protection and extra cladding to safeguard key components from rocks and debris when traversing rugged paths.
Despite its rugged upgrades, the Outback Wilderness maintains solid fuel efficiency. While exact EPA ratings may vary, it is expected to achieve around 22 MPG city / 26 MPG highway, making it one of the most fuel-efficient off-road-ready SUVs in its class. The model’s advanced CVT transmission and engine tuning help balance power and efficiency, ensuring drivers get the best of both worlds. Thanks to its auto start-stop technology, the Outback Wilderness also helps conserve fuel in stop-and-go traffic without compromising performance.
Yes! Subaru has equipped the Outback Wilderness with EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology, which includes adaptive cruise control, lane centering, pre-collision braking, and blind-spot monitoring. The model also features rear cross-traffic alert and Subaru symmetrical all-wheel-drive system, making it one of the safest adventure SUVs available. Additionally, the reinforced body structure and rollover sensor provide extra peace of mind when taking on rugged terrain. Its high-strength steel frame improves crash protection, and Subaru LED Steering Responsive Headlights enhance visibility when driving through dark or foggy trails.
