Features
Rugged Exterior Styling
The Outback Wilderness is ready for real off-road adventure with tough exterior cladding in blacked-out trim and copper-finish accents, offering extra protection around the wheel wheels and lower impact zones.


9.5 Inches of Ground Clearance with Front Skid Plate, Improved Angles, and Enhanced X-MODE
With an elevated ground clearance of 9.5 inches, you can take the Outback Wilderness into rougher terrain. The front and rear bumpers have been redesigned for improved approach, break-over, and departure angles, so you can easily clear larger obstacles. The dual-function X-MODE has also been upgraded and retuned, with settings for deep snow and mud that allow additional wheel slip to power through adverse conditions and stay enabled even above 25 miles per hour.
Standard Direct-Injection Turbocharged SUBARU BOXER Engine and Retuned Gearing
Outback Wilderness features a standard 260-horsepower direct-injection turbocharged SUBARU BOXER engine that delivers 277 pound-feet of torque and 3,500 pounds of towing capacity. The drivetrain features retuned gearing with a revised front and rear gear ratio for improved low-speed climbing – up to a 40 degree grade. It all powers our trail-proven standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and makes the Outback Wilderness the most capable Subaru we've ever built.

New Off-Road Wheels with All-Terrain Tires and Full-Size Spare
Standard new matte color off-road wheels and all-terrain Yokohama GEOLANDAR tires provide improved performance in all types of conditions – from mud, snow and gravel to boulder and rock. A full-size spare is hidden below the cargo area for extra peace of mind when you're out on the trail.
Anti-Glare Hood Design
The Outback Wilderness makes picking out your path a little easier with a uniquely designed hood that features a matte black accent to cut down on driver glare.


LED Fog Lights, and Front and Rear Tow Hooks
Rugged LED fog lights illuminate obstacles ahead and are set in eye-catching hexagon housings. Standard front and rear tow hooks with anodized copper-finish covers combine practical functionality and stylish design.

Redesigned Roof Rails
The redesigned roof rails are set off with anodized coper-finish accents and are able to support the weight of a rooftop tent, so you can quickly turn the Outback Wilderness into your comfortable expedition basecamp.

LED Cargo Lamp
Every aspect of the Outback Wilderness is designed for off-the-grid adventure, right down to the LED cargo lamp in the rear gate, which lets you find your gear or keep your card game going past sundown.

Textured StarTex Upholstery
The Outback Wilderness isn't just rugged on the outside. The cabin is protected with durable StarTex water-repellant upholstery featuring a textured honeycomb design.
Exclusive Interior Styling
The interior features high-quality materials with copper accents, trim, and contrast stitching for a premium look and feel that's exclusive to the Outback Wilderness.

SUBARU STARLINK® Multimedia with 11.6-inch Touchscreen
The Outback Wilderness cabin is the most technologically advanced interior we've ever made. Its stunning centerpiece is the standard high-resolution 11.6-inch touchscreen, which provides easy and intuitive access to your apps, entertainment, and navigation on the STARLINK Multimedia system with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration.
