WHAT’S NEW?
While maintaining all the performance,
safety, versatility and Subaru value
you know and love, the new 2010
Outback offers more than ever:
MORE SPACE

Head, hip, shoulder and rear legroom have
all increased creating more space for every
passenger. Cargo area is wider and taller
boasting more volume than many SUVs.
Door openings have also been enlarged to
enhance the airy feeling, make getting in and
out quicker, and installing/removing child
seats easier.

MORE COMFORT

All-new fabrics, premium accents and
reclining rear seats all contribute to its
higher level of interior comfort. Plus a new
subframe and suspension system reduce
noise levels and vibration to create a more
tranquil environment.

Another crowd pleaser, the 2.5i Sport, adds a power moonroof, cargo tray, and a
host of audio and communication features to keep you connected and thoroughly
entertained. It also offers the choice of a sporty 6-speed manual transmission or
Subaru’s slick new Lineartronic™ CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) featuring
sporty steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters.
During highway driving, Outback models with the Lineartronic CVT can extract
more than 1,000 km* from a single tank of fuel – an incredible figure for a full-time
all-wheel-drive vehicle and one that meets or exceeds the standards set by many
front-wheel-drive vehicles. The Lineartronic CVT is also designed to
comply with future environmental regulations, so it represents
a major step forward in terms of environmental
performance and power delivery.

New features like Bluetooth® mobile
communication systems, a MediaHub for
iPod® and USB integration or the innovative
swing-in-place crossbar system provide
another layer of convenience for your
travels (long or short).

Fuel efficiency has improved across the
board. Models equipped with CVT can
achieve over 1,000 km* per tank on the
highway (uncommon in other SUVs).
*It is possible to travel up to 1,014 km on one tank of fuel
based on estimated fuel consumption figure rating posted
by Natural Resources Canada of 6.9L/100 km (highway) for a
2010 Subaru Outback equipped with continuously
variable automatic transmission and a
70L fuel tank capacity. Actual fuel
consumption will vary based on
driving conditions, driver
habits and vehicle load.
