What's New For 2023?

Nothing much changed for the 2023 Subaru Outback, with the last redesign coming years ago and last year's version offering the then-all-new Wilderness Edition package. But still Subaru tweaks some of the exterior styling for the 2023 Outback and adds some new features to the mix. In the Touring trim, an enhanced forward collision mitigation system is an upgrade, providing alerts and automatic braking at higher speeds. Meanwhile, the infotainment system has been updated with the Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration apps now working wirelessly.

Performance and Capabilities

You'll have two engine options for the new 2023 Subaru Outback. The starting level will be the way to go if you prioritize fuel economy, and that 2.5-liter four-cylinder makes the Outback one of the most efficient SUVs of its class, earning up to 32 mpg on the highway. The 2.5-liter engine produces 182 horsepower with 176 pound-feet of torque. For more power, and what's offered in higher trims including the Wilderness Edition, the available turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder delivers 260 horsepower with 277 pound-feet of torque. Of course every edition of the Outback includes the standard Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system, giving you high-end traction and control, especially during tough winter driving. The standard AWD system makes the Outback's strong efficiency levels even more impressive, as that feature typically lowers fuel economy ratings in most rides.

Safety and Technology

Like you'd expect out of any Subaru, the new 2023 Outback is loaded with smart tech features. You'll start off with the updated infotainment system with a pair of dual 7-inch touchscreens and smartphone integration. Moving up to higher trims will combined those two touchscreens into an 11.7-inch tablet-style setup, include wireless connectivity, and add all kinds of amenities while upgrading audio systems, convenience features and more.

On the safety front, the 2023 Outback comes standard with the Subaru EyeSight suite of driver aids, which bundles adaptive cruise control, forward collision mitigation, lane keeping assist and automatic high beams. Higher trims will not only upgrade your collision mitigation system to work at higher speeds, but will also add blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert and some other driver aids.

Special Editions and Features

We've already mentioned the Wilderness Edition, so we'll go into what that special package of the 2023 Outback delivers. Using the turbocharged engine setup and carrying most of the same tech features as similar higher trims, this version of the Outback gets a slight lift off the ground and receives some special equipment. Included is a high-end roof rack designed to carry heavy loads while on the go, and even more when stationary so you can set up a special tent up top when you're camping. You'll also have special all-terrain tires and some unique Wilderness Edition styling inside and out.
