Experience a masterclass in car-like road composure, signature all-weather engineering, and exceptionally rugged cargo utility with the beautifully refreshed 2018 Subaru Outback 2.5i Touring AWD.Mechanical: Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and X-Mode Traction Under the cleanly sculpted hood sits a highly reliable 2.5-litre DOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder SUBARU BOXER engine, generating a balanced 175 horsepower and 174 lb-ft of low-end torque. This horizontally opposed powerplant channels its energy through a smooth Lineartronic Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) featuring a revised 7-speed manual shift mode with steering-wheel paddle shifters. True year-round Canadian driving security is driven by Subaru's legendary permanent Symmetrical Full-Time All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system, offering maximum traction control on ice-packed routes. Drivers can easily tackle steep, unplowed pathways utilizing the console-activated X-Mode traction management system with integrated Hill Descent Control.Safety: Advanced Proactive Detection Grid Drive with absolute peace of mind along unpredictable transit routes knowing your passengers are protected by a stiffer high-strength ring-shaped safety frame. The mid-tier Touring trim comes factory-standard with the Subaru Rear/Side Vehicle Detection (SRVD) system, which deploys Blind-Spot Detection, Lane Change Assist, and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert. Reversing into tight urban spaces is entirely stress-free thanks to a high-resolution rearview camera projecting live safety parameters onto the center screen. Occupant insulation is rounded out by a comprehensive advanced airbag network, electronic stability control, and a collision detection auto door-unlock function that automatically engages if an impact occurs.Technology: Reworked Touchscreen Center and Mobile Connectivity The driver-focused, acoustic-shielded cockpit strips away daily commuting stress by keeping your digital profiles flawlessly integrated completely hands-free. Center stage on the updated dashboard is an upgraded 8.0-inch high-resolution infotainment touchscreen display center linked to a crisp 6-speaker audio system. Your personal smartphone pairs instantly via standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, granting touchless voice command control over your navigation maps, text threads, and music playlists. Rear row passengers stay completely connected on long family road trips utilizing dual rear-seat USB slots dedicated to quick-charging portable mobile devices.Design: Power Sunroof Comfort and Massive Flat Cargo Utility The exterior profile projects a highly sophisticated road presence, styling a revised front grille, auto-on headlights, front fog lamps, roof rails with integrated swing-in-place crossbars, and 17-inch aluminum alloy wheels. Step inside a remarkably quiet, insulated five-passenger sanctuary lined with premium cloth upholstery, a power tilting and sliding glass sunroof, and a dual-zone automatic climate control system.
