2026 Subaru Outback Trim Level Comparison

The 2026 Subaru Outback lineup is split between a naturally aspirated platform and a turbocharged performance lineup, with each trim adding meaningful upgrades in comfort, technology, or capability. Subaru of Decatur offers every configuration. Here is how each trim builds on the one before it.

2026 Subaru Outback Premium trim exterior

Premium

The Subaru Outback Premium establishes the lineup with a 2.5-liter SUBARU BOXER® engine producing 180 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque. Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive®, X-MODE®, and 8.7 inches of ground clearance are standard. Inside, it includes StarTex® upholstery, heated front seats, a 12.3-inch digital cluster, and the Subaru Multimedia System.


2026 Subaru Outback Limited trim interior with leather upholstery

Limited

The Subaru Outback Limited focuses on comfort and convenience upgrades. It replaces StarTex® with leather-trimmed upholstery and adds a Harman Kardon® premium audio system.

2026 Subaru Outback Touring trim with Nappa leather seating

Touring

The Subaru Outback Touring moves into the most refined version of the 2.5-liter platform. Nappa leather seating replaces the standard leather, and ventilated front seats are added. A 360-degree surround-view monitor and Hands-Free Driving Assistance expand driver support, while interior finishes and seating materials elevate the cabin beyond the Limited trim.

The Subaru Outback Wilderness shifts the focus from comfort to capability. It introduces a 2.4-liter turbocharged SUBARU BOXER® engine producing 260 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque, along with 9.5 inches of ground clearance.
