The 2026 Outback sports a bold, modern look while preserving its adventure-ready heritage. Its redesigned front end, with a wider grille, vertical headlights, and durable, textured cladding, projects strength and improves aerodynamics, ideal for both city streets and off-road trails. The boxier profile and flatter roofline enhance cargo capacity, while robust roof rails, supporting up to 800 pounds static and 220 pounds dynamic load, include a novel lateral load capacity for hammocks or clotheslines.
At the rear, a steeper window angle expands cargo space, complemented by aerodynamic, scratch-resistant cladding and a sleek Subaru emblem design that simplifies trailer hitch setups. Integrated crossbar markers streamline accessory installation, and the rear light design emphasizes the Outback’s commanding stance and elevated ride height.
Inside, the 2026 Outback offers a serene, functional cabin with premium materials, including headliner inserts crafted from recycled plastic bottles. With a 2-inch taller roofline, the cabin provides 34.6 cubic feet of cargo space—2 cubic feet more than its predecessor—and spacious seating with low-fatigue seats bolted to the chassis for enhanced long-drive comfort. Noise reduction measures, including sound-absorbing materials and aerodynamic refinements, cut wind noise by 10%.
Smart storage solutions elevate practicality: 32-ounce bottle holders, accessible cupholders, and a recycled-material tonneau cover that serves as a pet partition or bumper guard. Cargo hooks support up to 6 pounds, while a passenger-side smartphone clip keeps devices secure. A 42% reduction in lateral sway ensures a smoother, more stable ride for all occupants.
The 2026 Outback integrates advanced tech with a 12.1-inch touchscreen and 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, driven by a fast, customizable processor. The system supports wireless Apple CarPlay®, Android Auto™, and hybrid navigation blending cloud and onboard data for quick map access. Dedicated climate control buttons and cloud-based voice recognition enhance usability, especially in challenging conditions.
The digital cluster offers tailored displays: a distraction-reducing Calm Mode, a navigation-focused view with app integration, and an EyeSight®-centric mode for clear road and traffic visuals. Paired with Subaru’s award-winning EyeSight® system, these features deliver a safer, more intuitive driving experience tailored to any journey.
The 2026 Outback offers two powertrains: a 2.5-liter SUBARU BOXER® engine (180 hp, 178 lb-ft torque) or a 2.4-liter turbocharged version (260 hp, 277 lb-ft torque) on XT and Wilderness trims, both mated to a Lineartronic® CVT with 8-speed manual mode and Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. An updated X-MODE®, now activated via the steering wheel, and a refined all-wheel-drive system with quicker differential lockup boost off-road grip and on-road precision.
With 8.7 inches of ground clearance, the Outback rivals full-size SUVs, while a WRX-inspired dual-pinion steering system ensures responsive handling. Select trims feature 19-inch wheels, and the Wilderness trim’s 17-inch all-terrain tires enhance rugged performance, maintaining easy cargo access and a low step-in height for everyday convenience.
