Outside, the Subaru Outback features a brand new and innovative
roof rail system with integrated swing-in-place crossbars that allow
for the quick and easy loading of gear. The crossbars move out of the
way when not in use, helping to boost fuel efficiency and lower wind
noise. Other new exterior features include fully automatic headlights
and, of course, the aggressive stance created by the more prominent
front and rear fenders, powerful front grille, standard fog lights and
17-inch alloy wheels. More importantly, the new Outback has hig her
ground clearance – higher than many SUVs – with which to clear
minor obstacles in your path.
The 2010 lineup begins with the Subaru Outback PZEV, a
well-appointed vehicle that delivers all the traditional qualities
for which Subaru has become famous, along with a healthy dose
of eco-friendliness. The PZEV utilizes a 2.5-litre 4-cylinder SUBARU
BOXER engine (170 hp; 170 lb-ft of torque) equipped with special
smog-fighting technology that makes it one of the cleanest-burning
gasoline-powered vehicles on the road today.
Not only does the Outback PZEV refuse to compromise on power
and performance, it boasts the same size, comfort and versatility
as all other Outback models. There’s no loss of luggage space, no
complicated technology involved and the PZEV runs on regular
unleaded fuel – simple!
Every model is equipped with a wealth of standard equipment
including: Vehicle Dynamics Control, Traction Control, 4-wheel ABS
with Electronic Brake-force Distribution and Brake Assist and, of
course, Subaru symmetrical full-time All-Wheel Drive. All combined,
these systems give the Subaru Outback go-anywhere traction, and
all-weather control and safety.
Not all features listed are available on all models.
