Rugged Performance & Off-Road Capability
At the heart of the 2026 Subaru Outback Wilderness is a powerful 2.4L H-4 gasoline direct injection, DOHC, variable valve control, intercooled turbo, regular unleaded, engine with 260HP, delivering responsive power whenever you step on the accelerator. Paired with an 8-speed Lineartronic CVT featuring manual shift control, this powertrain balances robust low-end torque with smooth highway cruising, earning an estimated 21 MPG city and 27 MPG highway. Subaru's legendary Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive pairs with a specialized off-road ride suspension and a driver-selectable X-MODE drivetrain mode featuring hill descent control, giving you full command across dirt, mud, or snow. Underbody protection is enhanced by a durable skid plate, while P225/65TR17 all-terrain tires wrapped around 17-inch matte black aluminum wheels provide excellent traction on uneven surfaces. For added peace of mind on remote trails, a full-size spare tire on a matching aluminum wheel is mounted beneath the cargo floor, ensuring you stay prepared wherever the road leads.
Advanced Technology & Interior Connectivity
Inside the cabin, the 2026 Subaru Outback Wilderness keeps you seamlessly connected with cutting-edge infotainment and user-friendly controls. Centered on the dashboard is the expansive 12.1-inch primary touchscreen display, hosting the Subaru multimedia system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smart device mirroring. Audio performance is elevated by a premium 12-speaker harman/kardon sound system powered by a 576W amplifier, delivering crisp, rich sound throughout the interior. Drivers benefit from a high-resolution 12.3-inch gauge cluster display that provides vital vehicle data at a glance, while front wireless smart device charging and 4 USB ports keep all your electronics powered. Additional conveniences include voice-activated climate control, steering wheel-mounted audio buttons, and available MySubaru Wi-Fi Hotspot capability, making every trip both enjoyable and convenient for everyone on board.
