As Subaru proves with both the 2020 Outback and the 2020 Legacy, some things get better with age. In 2020, the Outback is back and better than ever. The 2020 Subaru Outback sports many impressive new features, including a novel infotainment screen with a tablet-style interface. As sophisticated and high-tech as it is, the 2020 Subaru Outback also excels in off-road performance. The 2020 Outback has an exceptionally stylish and comfortable cabin, too. The infotainment system is designed in a tablet-style format that is more user-friendly than ever. Although the Outback has a high ground clearance, loading the roof and cargo area are more accessible than ever. The Legacy, another popular Subaru vehicle, is also fully redesigned for the 2020 model year. The Legacy also gets an 11.6-inch tablet-style infotainment system this year and more powerful engines.
The Outback, which is one of its best-selling vehicles of all time, now comes with standard all-wheel-drive across the board. A larger 11.6-inch touchscreen is now standard as well. The addition of this feature puts the Outback ahead of many competitors. The Outback is available in nine exterior paint colors. It also has plenty of options when it comes to seating materials and cabin color schemes. The Legacy also gets standard all-wheel-drive this year. It has many more driver-assist features as well. Outward visibility is better than ever, and a brand new Touring XT trim joins the lineup, too.

When it comes to performance, both the Outback and the Legacy excel in 2020; the Outback still has the same legendary and award-winning Boxer engine that it had in the past. This year, however, the Outback's engine is more powerful with a maximum HP of 182. Its innovative design also translates to better gas mileage for consumers than ever before. Meanwhile, the newest engine in the Legacy, which is turbo-charged, delivers a maximum of 260 HP. Both engines offer exceptional gas mileage.
