If you are considering getting a new Subaru Outback, you can find what you are looking for at Patrick Subaru in Shrewsbury, MA. The Outback is a tremendously capable crossover SUV. Whether you are looking for a vehicle to take camping or off-roading, or for a reliable SUV for everyday driving around Westborough, MA, the Outback is a great option. But how does the Outback compare to the competition?
Standard All-Wheel Drive, Unlike the Toyota RAV4
The Toyota RAV4 is another crossover that might look like a similarly capable off-roading vehicle to the Outback. However, the RAV4 only offers all-wheel drive as standard on its highest two trim levels. In other words, to get all-wheel drive on a RAV4, you are going to have to pay extra. The Outback comes standard with all-wheel drive on all trims, guaranteeing that you can enjoy extra traction and control no matter what the driving conditions are like in Worcester, MA.
More Modern Infotainment than the Honda CR-V
The Honda CR-V comes standard with a five-inch infotainment touchscreen and no integration for smartphones. Higher trim levels have a seven-inch touchscreen. The Outback comes standard with dual seven-inch touchscreens and both Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ on the base trim, so you can easily connect your smartphone. All higher trims have an 11.6-inch touchscreen.
Better Off-Roading Capability Than the Mazda CX-5
If you want a car to take on a camping trip or off-roading adventure near Marlborough, MA, the Outback outclasses the Mazda CX-5 in several key features. The Outback has standard X-MODE traction control to help you navigate tough trails, while the CX-5 has no equivalent features. The Outback has an available maximum towing capacity of 3,500 pounds, while the Mazda CX-5 maxes out at just 2,000 pounds.
