The 2015 Subaru Outback made a stop at the 2014 New York Auto Show as the fifth-generation wagon makes its way to the showroom floor this summer.

Under the bonnet, a choice of either a 2.5-liter flat-4 or 3.6-liter flat-6 will send 175 to 256 horsepower through a standard CVT to all four corners. The Legacy-esque Outback should average 28 mpg from the flat-4, 22 with the flat-6.

As for safety, rearview camera, pre-collision braking and adaptive cruise control make up part of the overall driver-protection package on-offer from Subaru.

    This looks much more attractive than the current model. I just hope they fix the numb, darty steering and the horrible infotainment system (if you can even call what Subaru currently offers 'infotainment').

    -Less ugly than the previous model -Subaru still hasn't dropped the 3.6 -CVT sucks in the extreme cold--where most Subarus are run I kind of like it. What people don't appreciate about these things is how big they are on the inside when compared to other cars in their price range.

  • SCE to AUX Figure 160 miles EPA if it came here, minus the usual deductions.It would be a dud in the US market.
  • Analoggrotto EV9 sales are rivalling the Grand Highlander's and this is a super high eATP vehicle with awesome MSRPs. Toyota will need to do more than compete with a brand who has major equity and support from the automotive journalism community. The 3 row game belongs to HMC with the Telluride commanding major marketshare leaps this year even in it's 5th hallowed year of ultra competitive sales.
  • Analoggrotto Probably drives better than Cprescott
  • Doug brockman I havent tried the Honda but my 2023 RAV4 is great. I had a model 20 years ago which. Was way too little
  • Master Baiter The picture is of a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle.
