Performance
The refreshed 2026 Subaru Outback offers two impressive powertrain options to suit different driving needs. The standard 2.5-liter horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine delivers 180 horsepower and pairs with a continuously variable transmission (CVT) for smooth acceleration.
Drivers from Somerset will appreciate fuel efficiency of 25 mpg in New Bedford and 31 mpg on the highway. For those seeking more power, the available 2.4-liter turbocharged engine produces 260 horsepower while maintaining respectable fuel economy at 21 mpg within Raynham and 29 mpg highway. Both engines feature the Subaru marque's signature full-time all-wheel drive (AWD) system, ensuring confident handling in all weather conditions.
