Exterior - What the Auto Press Says

All in all, reviewers find the Subaru Outback to be a nice-looking vehicle. The Outback comes standard with adjustable roof rails to make carrying extra cargo a breeze.

  • "From the front, the Outback's nose is sort of generic and anonymous looking. But in profile this is one handsome station wagon, with tough-looking wheel arches and a roofline that sweeps naturally back. The roof rack, a tool many Outback owners will use on a regular basis, integrates perfectly with the rest of the trim." -- Popular Mechanics
  • "It will certainly attract the brand's usual characters; but much more importantly, it has character. It's not a lozenge with cladding -- it's a properly designed vehicle with significantly contrasting planes, lines and details. So much so, in fact, that our first reaction to it was, 'That's a good looking car.'" -- Autoblog
