Subaru launches next generation Outback at New York auto show
There aren't many products that can claim to have saved a brand, but the Outback is widely credited with turning things around for a struggling Subaru when it was introduced 25 years ago.
Pricing for the 2020 Subaru Outback won't be released until closer to the new model's on-sale date next autumn. The current Outback starts at $26,345. The familial similarities to the Legacy is immediately apparent, though Subaru has tried to put a bit more room, at least from a styling perspective, between the two nameplates. There's a vertical array of LED lamps along the Outback's lower fascia, according to the teaser image released by the automaker, a different layout than on the new Legacy. And there's plenty of black cladding on bumpers, fenders and sills that you don't see on the sedan.
For now, the crossover will feature a 2.5-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine making 182 horsepower and 176 pound-feet of torque. The performance upgrade will be a 2.4-liter boxer four making 260 hp and 277 pound-feet of torque. A CVT will be paired to both engines and, as is the case on every Subaru model but the BRZ sports car, the automaker's symmetrical all-wheel-drive system will be standard on the 2020 Outback.
