I scratch the side of my nose and the car tells me to keep eyes on the road (I kid you not). The cars tech tells me my hands are not on the wheel when they are. Its telling me to keep eyes on the road when they are.

Not to mention, I find the driver monitoring tends to over police my every move far too much for my liking. Sometimes I wonder why you need to have a driver profile if things like memory seat function, radio station etc are not coded in. The driver monitoring system doesn't always detect your face when you get in the car. There are times I am not pressing the right area when driving on the road or on undulated terrain and you have to take your eyes off the road momentarily to see where you are pressing. In fact I would say 75% of the vehicle controls are only accessible via touch screen which concerns me. The HVAC controls are also via the touch screen. Having to operate the heat seat functions within the touch screen via 3 steps is not great especially when you are moving. The other main issue I have is with the tech. Even then, I would be limiting my speed to 80kph maximum which Subaru recommend you do regardless of towing load. I know it can tow up to 2000kg and has a towball download weight of 200kg, but I wouldn't confidently tow anything more than 1250kg max with this engine and gearbox combination. The car did fine, but you could feel the engine and cvt working fairly hard to maintain the speed limit in my local area with that. Both times the loads were no more than 400kg. I have towed a trailer of firewood and a trailer of rubbish to the local tip.

Again its ok for commuting and some trail fun, but a drivers car this is not. You can feel the weight of the car when you turn into corners even though the brakes on the car work well. The cvt gearbox while adequate is uninspiring. The engine as I said is quite aural (not in a good way) at high rpm. Read more oys driving, this will bore & potentially frustrate you to tears. If you are anything of a driver of any sort who enj. Plenty of room in the back for shopping, dogs, and even car camping which I do from time to time. The engine is the epitome of adequate and it does the every day choirs without much fuss. I find the car drives very comfortably when you are not in a rush. I used the car everyday to take the dog for a walk and regular daily shopping visits among other places.

I purchased this car as an upgrade to my 2018 Subaru XV-S that I was some what already satisfied with. I could bang on all day, but I highly recommend this car to anyone looking for quality comfort and convenience. The finish of the car is great quality and the value for dollar when comparing features and size to other manufacturers, make the outback quite competitive. Both are intuitive and don’t intrude on the drive, instead enhancing it. To drive it has lane assist and variable cruise control. Read more ack include leather seats heated at the front and fully electric. No matter how hard you try you don’t seem to be able to lose traction and the standard safety features in the vehicle are amazing, airbags. The rear seats fold down should you need more storage room in the back and it’s amazing just how much you can fit in.īeing an all wheel drive it grips the road like it has claws, or at least that’s how it feels. Surprisingly good room inside, good leg room for the rear passengers comfortable for the driver in front passenger. We couldn’t be happier with a Subaru outback.
