2020 Outback Touring, non-turbo

The most comfortable car I have ever been in—including limo's, town cars, Mercedes S class. Drove a 1000 miles in one shot. Twice. Realized that I never needed to shift in my seat...because usually you do in long drives. But never needed do. Even shifted just because I thought I should...because 'that's what you do.' Confirmed. Not necessary. The thing was also effortless to drive—straight as an arrow. Quiet, smooth, relaxed. About 30.5 mpg on the 2300 mile trip. Mostly highway doing 65-70mph. The thing drips with technology. The center display is full of menus—maybe too many. Wish I could opt for no engine off'ing at stop lights. Save VERY little gas and I'm thinking that the starter motor life cycle MUST be taking a real hit. Anyway, pluses and minuses. Safe and all that but, at some point as you learn about as much tech as you can stomach, I just want to 'set it and forget it.' Just drive it. Also worry about all the computer fails and glitches that will inevitably show their faces. Glad we did not get the turbo. Fun for the test drive but didn't want to pay for it, then insure it, then pay in mileage and wear and tear on the engine. Never miss any power when getting on any freeway, etc. Lastly, almost a side note: We live where it snows and ices. Thought the tires would be better than they are—even if they aren't winter tires. So, getting winter tires and wheels to make up for it.

Superior Vehicle

We purchased our Outback at Parker Subaru in CDA last August. It was put to the test when we took a short road trip from the Seattle area to visit friends and have our vehicle's 1st maintenance checkup. We drove back in an extreme winter storm over the Snoqualmie pass in blizzard conditions and it handled flawlessly. It was chains only except AWD and could not have been more pleased. We just wish we had discovered Subaru years ago!

AWESOME

I love my Subaru - It's been on my wish list for quite some time. My Subaru is so comfortable to drive and I love all of the safety features. Love the heated steering wheel and seats! So many features that keep me on track while driving. Comfortable to carry my parents around and space in the back for anything. I LOVE MY SUBARU !!!

Happy camper

My 2020 Outback Onyx XT has been my favorite vehicle so far. I loved my '82 Ford Bronco but this Scooby is great for my current needs without going to far one way or another. My family enjoys the outdoors and we can go hit the campgrounds that we wish with no trouble so far. Stock tires are the only thing that really needs to be changed for the ease of the trails but we've been able to hit every trail so far, just slower and more cautiously. Most of my time is spent on the road so having a comfortable ride with good gas miles has been wonderful. Of corse there are some things that can be made better, i.e. infotainment system and roof rack, but overall I am extremely happy with this Scooby and looking forward to the adventures it take us on.

Very sturdy, dependable automobile

I owned a Subaru Outback for thirteen years with very few issues. When it was time to turn it in I leased my present Outback and have not been disappointed. It has a very smooth ride and I always feel quite safe in it due to its safety features and dependability.

Excellent

Although I have been a staunch forestor driver and find these cars to be comfortable and reliable…i made the switch to this outback for comfort due to several back injuries and loved the seat support.

2020 Outback

We bought ours brand new and have put many miles on it. During the warranty period we had issues with struts leaking. It was taken care of without a question. Since the warranty we have only had it in for one repair after 110,000 miles. I consider that a fairly decent vehicle. It has served us well in all kinds of weather conditions. It is very comfortable on long drives and my wife loves the adaptive cruise control. The only negative thing I can think of is the tire size and quality from the factory is definitely lacking. They are thin and don't match the capabilities of this vehicle. I highly recommend a heavier duty tire.

Subaru outback 2020

I like everything except I want to turn off the Start/Stop feature permanently. I hate it and turning it off every time I start the car is frustrating and something I should not have to do.

Mixed reaction

A mixture of good and bad design & implementation. If I had it to do over, I might not buy it again.

2020 Outback

Vehicle is otherwise great but touchscreen design and controls poorly thought out and confusing. Secondary settings change all on their own. Automatic steering functions unpredictable. Subaru remote control functions were unreliable from day one. Took months to fix it.

so far so good

I bought a 2020 Subaru outback off the lot and decided to put a lift on it and bulk up the tires. The aftermarket lift may have not been the best idea because it ended up needing to be fixed recently due to a broken bracket but i get so many compliments on my Outback. It's kind of weird how many people comment on the lift when I can barely tell it was lifted. I guess the people that know, know! I love the lane assist feature I feel safe driving in snow and off road. The only thing that erks me is where the lights, eye glass holder & sunroof button are rattles all the time and it's pretty annoying .
