    Really pleased with the car. We wanted to be able to tow caravans without buying something like a Prado. Full-time 4WD is excellent. Very comfortable. I can live with the CVT. It is my least preferred transmission, but it works well with the turbo four. We bought using a broker and saved $4000.
    CarExpert is my favourite review team. Paul Maric is the best reviewer available.

    Chris’s experience with the 2025 Subaru Outback Touring XT

    Quality, comfort, features, and great infotainment. Has good grunt. I can update with a chip post-warranty for more performance. The car is very new to us, so I cannot rate it off-road. Looking forward to travelling the country of Australia.
