It's why I genuinely think the Outback Onyx Edition XT's $36,155 price feels like a great overall value. New cars are expensive, and now more than ever, car shoppers likely kick the tires on a car that will serve them in a multitude of ways - hence the increasing popularity of crossovers and SUVs. "For something that gets so much use, why cheap out here?" "Come to think of it, I don't know if I've ever been in a Subaru with a decent stereo," managing editor Steven Ewing noted. The whole staff agreed: The audio tech in the Outback was bad, and Subaru doesn't offer any sort of premium upgrade.

"The ever-attentive driver aids were always an asset, though what stuck out most in my mind was the sound system," Cole wrote, genuinely wondering if something was broken.
The one bit of tech we didn't like? The stereo. That's where our buddy Seyth Miersma chimed in again with a specific bit of praise: "Subaru gets bonus points for the easily accessible LATCH child seat anchors (with a hand flap for covering back up when not in use), and for enough legroom that 6-foot-plus folks like myself can sit in back with the baby and not feel at all cramped." Other stuff, like rear automatic emergency braking, were things we didn't appreciate until they quite literally saved our ass.Ī lot of people will buy the Outback as a family car, but we're mostly a childless bunch here at Roadshow. We did find the lane-keeping assist a little too sensitive, and we also noticed it would beep and shut off on multiple occasions. Our Outback had a ton of driver-assistance tech thanks to the aforementioned EyeSight package.
