I've had my '19 Outback Limited since March and absolutely love it. The first time I drove it, I could believe the beautiful, quiet ride. The 2.5 has plenty of spunk for me, and I see no need for the 3.6. I recommend this vehicle without reservation.

Congratulations!!! Back in 2020 I bought an used 2018 Outback Premium trim that was fully loaded with all the optional features for that trim such as eyesight, navigation, power rear lift gate, sunroof, LED lighting upgrade and etc….3 years & 112k miles later and i couldn’t be happier!!! Very amazed with its off-road capabilities and its everyday comfortable driving experience, it’s extremely versatile and it’s fuel economy is just straight out amazing! considering its size and full time awd ability….over 30mpg on the highway is just straight out incredible!!! Plus the cherry on top is the very high resale value!!! Even with 112k miles dealers are offering me $16-$17k for it which is way higher then what I currently owe the bank which is around $11k-$12k!!! So you did a very good thing on purchasing that Outback!!!

I bought a 2018 2.5 premium just for a vacation to the Rockies, Dinosaur, Grand Teton, Yellowstone, Tower , Black hills and Badlands. Drove from Ohio! 4900 miles, ran great and very comfortable

Great job (as usual) and nice variety of vehicles on the channel guys. Keep it up! 👍

This was the most cohesive video! The intro music meshes perfectly with the Suburu message. Bubbly, pleasant and oddly comforting. Good job y'all!!

I purchased my 2015 Gen 5 3.6 from Quantrell in 2014. They are the 5🌟Subaru dealer for central KY, and strive to be the best! The 2019 has a few new features from my 2015, but not enough to jump into a new one. That's the real selling point of the Outback, they not only hold their value, but also retains their usability.

Nice review showing all features of the car This Subaru outback is very nice Drew nice

Congrats on your new Outback! 👍

Test drove this model and I have to say, coming from a 2012 Outback Subaru made leaps and bounds with this one. I also test-drove the 15-17 model years and they were excellent as well. This mid-cycle refresh rode really well and was really quiet inside, much more so than my 2012 Outback. I might consider trading my car in a few years and buying a used 2018 because of how well it performed. The interior dimensions grew, the storage capacity increased, and I got better mileage than my 2012. Funny how in just a few years Subaru's really upped their game since they've been known to make pretty agricultural sounding/handling/feeling cars

Clear, concise, thorough review. I'm not even interested in this particular Subaru, but yet watched the entire video. The only portion I skip through is the audio/speaker test, only because it'll sound the same through the viewers listening source. Would love for you guys to take it out on a "real" test drive and/or get a full week with the vehicles like some other reviewers get.. Nevertheless, I subbed.. Keep it up guys 👍👌

Hey, I just took delivery of my 2019 Outback Limited 3.6R last month, but didn't find a cargo cover in the trunk a few days later. Should it be included? I live in Canada, not sure how all the accessories work compared to the US.

I was first introduced to the Subaru vehicles by colleagues at work. I ordered a 2015 Outback Limited in August 2014 and received it just before Christmas in December 2014. It had been a week of cold weather (-28'C) and when I arrived at the park and ride via public transit later that December evening, my new Subaru 'would NOT start'. I called a friend and he boosted my 'NEW' Subaru. The dealer examined the car and battery the next day and said it was fine, 'just drive it so that it can charge the battery'. Luckily a friend of mine is a mechanic and he came over to my house and tested the battery and suggested putting a charger on the battery. Bottom line, the battery kept failing and failing, so I returned the car to the dealer time and time again. When I picked up the Subie after work that day, I was told the 'battery checks out', its good to go! I advised the service desk tech that I was leaving the Subie at the airport park and ride for a week and that I expected the Subie to start upon our return in mid-August. You guessed it, the Subie failed to start in the summertime! Called CAA, tech advised that some of the battery cells had failed and to get a new battery ASAP. I returned to the Subie dealer and again shared my difficulty starting my expensive vehicle. The dealership would not support replacing the battery. I had my mechanic friend replace the battery the next day with a compatible battery. That battery has been in the Subie for over 125K through 4 seasons and five years later now and it still starts the Subie regardless of the weather or temperature. Bad luck I guess. We received a letter this past year informing owners of the 2015 Subaru Outbacks that if their battery failed they might be provided a form of compensation. Ok, don't laugh, but we later purchased a 2019 Subaru Outback Premier because we enjoyed the comfort, the ride and the all-wheel drive feature of the Subarus. The Lane Keep Assist feature is of concern so we don't use it. We convinced my oldest son to buy a new Forrester 2 years ago. He travels across western Canada in the summer and does winter camping in Manitoba and thoroughly enjoys his Subie! Suggested to my physiotherapist that she purchase a Subaru as she was concerned about winter driving. She received her Ascent 5 months ago and is quite pleased how it transports her family of four in comfort on long trips and that it has lots of room for her toddlers toys and how sure-footed it is when driving in snowy conditions!

Great review. Thorough and informative. As a person who actually wants to buy an Outback - I really appreciated the info. Keep it up

All the setting that I can configure are for interstate . The software is updated. When I called Subaru customer service they said it is current version. Very disappointed in the Navi. Also another problem is with apple play , when you connect the USB cable to the IPhone X, can not stream audio from Direct TV NOW. Though if the IPHONE X is connected via Blue tooth , no issue with apple play, with Direct TV NOW app. I don't even use the onboard, NAV , I think it is junk worse then WAZE apps, or my Garmin GPS that I had bought 6 years ago for 600.00 , which has the current map 2018.

Very helpful video - thanks. I'm interested in the Outback because my original preference, the 2019 Forester, has introduced a terrible feature which I hate and it was a dealbreaker for me. That feature is auto start stop. It wouldn't be so bad if Subaru would let you turn it off and it stayed off, but it comes back on automatically next time you start the car. If there are any Forester shoppers reading this, I suggest you download the manual, read the section starting on page 339 and decide if you want a car with that complex system, In addition to the annoyance of the "delay-jerk-move" the reliability has to suffer. Fortunately the Outback doesn't have it (yet).

My wife LOVES her 19 OBW and I LOVE my 19 Forester Touring. It’s now 9 / 2023 and we’re still Loving our Subie’s. My wife’s OBW has just 28K miles and my Forester has only 12K miles. Her Outback is Cinnamon Brown Pearl with Ivory interior. My Forester is Sephia Bronze with Saddle Brown interior. It’s odd, but when the skies are cloudy my Forester looks greyish bronze and when the skies are clear, my Forester looks Bronze. The new Brilliant Bronze is beautiful but it only comes in boring, dated, gloomy, dated Black interior. The only exterior colors that you can get now with the Saddle Brown interior is White or Autumn Green. Hopefully Subaru will eventually come into the 21st century and make Tan or Brown interior colors available with more exterior colors and in lower trim models. Also it would be nice if Subaru would start making reliable hybrids available in all their dated models.

I am very interested in the 3.6R Touring but disappointed in the limited colors available. The 2018 was available in a dark blue. The 2019s have only 4 colors for the Touring trim, and they do not include the dark blue. The Limited trim is available in the dark blue but I have to add options packages to bring it up to the features the Touring has. Not happy with this decision, Subaru.

I’ve got a 2018 Outback 3.6R Touring. Fantastic vehicle! No comparison between the 3.6 engine vs. the 2.5 engine. The 6 cylinder boxer engine makes the Outback a totally different (better!) vehicle. Significantly more power, quieter and smoother, and the 3.6R cruises at only 1800 rpm at 70 mph, vs. 2600 rpm for the 2.5 engine. The 3.6 never feels “stressed,” whereas the 2.5 engine feels to be just adequate for most driving situations. I am very pleased with this vehicle, and glad that I purchased the top Touring model.

Nice video, BUT, you TOTALLY SKIPPED the buttons just above the drivers knee, left of the steering wheel.

The 175hp of the 19 and older is sluggish as is the 20 and newer 182hp. We have found that the CVT robs the engine of hp, torque and mpg. The CVT is cheaper for Subaru to make, but they CANNOT be rebuilt, so you have to buy a new one for a starting price of $8K. Subaru says to never change the transmission fluid, but you better have it changed every 60K miles or it WILL FAIL. The Only Way to get 33mpg is going downhill with a strong tailwind. Expect 29mpg on the freeway and 24mpg around town with the 2.5L 4cyl.

wow its cool

Hold the wheel at 9 and 3, don't wrap your thumbs around the wheel - place them on the front side of the wheel (prevents you from stress-gripping it and fatiguing your hands, and in old cars can save you from broken thumbs in a frontal collision) and adjust your seat distance such that you can reach your arm and rest your wrist on top of the steering wheel with a slight bend in your elbow without leaning forward in the seat to do so - this gives you sufficient arm length to do 180 degree steering with one arm without having to always resort to hand over hand steering (not that there's anything particularly wrong with the latter in my view, but I'm told it affects reactionary efficiency).

The Outback is not perfect at any one thing, but it is a great all around car. I own an 18 3.6R Limited, and, compared to my old Mustang, it is a little boring to drive, but the 3.6 has pretty decent power to make it somewhat exciting. It’s comfortable, practical, reliable, and excellent in inclement weather. If you want something more exciting, get a sports car. If you just want something great all around, the Outback is great.

I wish they were better looking, eye of the beholder and all that. But these just look unappealing to me. Looking at a (new, updated interior) Buick TourX. Not as much ground clearance, but I'll never off road my car.

It's interesting to see how other countries implement their different versions of the same car. In Australia, the 2019 Outback has been kept relatively simple: - 2.0 Turbo Diesel - 2.5i Standard Petrol - 2.5i Premium Petrol - 3.6R Premium Petrol In Premium trim, the only difference between the Australian 2.5i and the 3.6R is: - The engine (duh) - No auto stop/start in the 3.6R - No fake 7th gear on the 3.6R (only goes to 6 on the flappy paddles) - Harmon Kardon sound system in the 3.6R - Heavy duty CVT transmission in the 3.6R Beyond that it has just about all the extra features you see offered in other countries with no in-between optioning other than colours. All models here are CVT only. No manual transmission options anymore (they did this to be able to make EyeSight standard across the range). The Australian 2.5i Standard and 2.0 Diesel is cut back from Premium trim as follows: - Smaller touchscreen (6.5" vs 8") - No leather (cloth instead) - No vision assist tech (so that's the ADB, BSM, FVM, LCA, RCTA and SVM features dropped) - Halogen headlights instead of LED - No steering responsive headlights - 17" wheels instead of 18" - Can't change colours of the gauge cluster - No SI-Drive modes - No auto stop/start info - No powered tailgate - No auto-dimming rear-view mirror - No side-sill plates - No electric seats (all mechanical) - No sat-nav - Only one USB port (really, Subaru? Is that really saving THAT much money?) - you DO get one feature that the Premiums don't get though - an illuminated ignition ring (because it's not keyless start)! All adding up to a saving of around AUD$6K under the 2.5i premium (only AUD$4K saved for the Diesel). Like you guys, however, you can still spend thousands on top on optional extras like towbar, nets, extra steppers, cargo pod, etc. Anyway, I enjoyed watching your walkthrough - very detailed and fun to watch. Thanks! =)

Is it not true that the Subaru outback has the highest cost of ownership over a ten year period assuming you buy it brand new? I believe consumer report outlines this. Also it not true that the timing belt on the four cylinder model has to be changed at around 140,000 klms . And it will cost you between 1600 dollars Us and about 2200 dollars Canadian? And the last technical issue is the monitoring eyes which are mounted on the windshield in proximate with the rear view mirror , if something hits the windshield like a stone or other debris the whole car shuts down? Now tell me why I should still buy a Subaru again?

I believe the 2018 2.5 engine has a timing chain rather than a belt (we own one). I THINK the change hit in 2014 with the latest engine update.

I agree that it pulls back the "effective" power a bit - not laggy as such, but slightly watered down somewhat - but at least the throttle is still generally responsive with no dead zones like some other brands. You can get off the line reasonably quickly, just not as quickly as before.

People please don’t make the same mistake my family a i did this cars antifreeze reservoir goes emty every 2000 miles and subaru service say is ok so i told them so i don’t have to fill it? They say you have to fill it up so i have to go to the dealership every 2000 miles the car only have 10,000 miles,windows don’t wipe when you roll your windows down which is a extreme hazard when is raining very hard i have to open the door so i can see also this car stop on us for no reason.this are the worse car and the service is the worse you have to prove them that something is wrong with your car they don’t have mechanics only service people that don’t care about you and if a mechanic to check your car it will take forever and they don’t have loaner cars because they have to many recalls.if you want to be happy and have a nice night sleep skip subaru go with anything because is better than subaru and all the subaru dealers they just a franchise that subaru family comercial is a joke they took like 2 months just to inspect my car and they say everything ok,no loaner car so they offer a rental wich i have to put my credit car on front they say they will refund us $2200 3 months and we diden’t get our money

i like the specs and the price but the design is ugly, it feels like living in the early 90's

Thats the detailers fault, not Subaru. I have no sticker residue at all on my vehicle. Every vehicle sold has to be detailed after the sale. Simply returning the vehicle and asking to have sticker residue removed should work. If not, they sell goo gone. That works great.

The materials in this car are the worse

Car kinda sucks. Was hoping it would be more interesting. Everything looks way to basic, not anything special for 2019 compared to what trims toyota even has. Too bad because this was an option. Lol.

No light under the hood, and no glovebox light, but it has lights on the side mirrors. 😅 Subaru sucks. Top mount oil filter is a flawed design too. No one can put the right amount of oil in it. And my 1995 2.3L Honda Prelude has more power than this 2.5L boxer pice of shit. Dam new cars are trash. Also my back tires are bald on my Outback but not the front so it is not really AWD all the time like a Mitsubishi is. Also no AUX input on the radio. I guess you got to be a fanboy to love Subaru.
