The 2022 Subaru Outback Wilderness stands out as the most rugged and off-road-capable Outback ever produced. Designed for adventure enthusiasts, this model elevates the standard Subaru Outback with enhanced features and a bolder design, making it a compelling choice for those seeking to explore beyond paved roads.
The Subaru Outback Wilderness boasts a significant increase in ground clearance, raising it to 9.5 inches, compared to the standard Outback’s 8.7 inches. This extra clearance, coupled with a retuned suspension and longer coil springs, allows for improved approach and departure angles, crucial for tackling steep inclines and rough terrain. The upgraded suspension not only enhances off-road capability but also provides a comfortable ride on everyday roads.
Equipped with Yokohama GEOLANDAR all-terrain tires mounted on unique matte-black 17-inch alloy wheels, the 2022 Subaru Outback Wilderness ensures superior traction on loose surfaces like gravel, mud, and snow. Subaru’s renowned Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system, combined with the dual-function X-MODE featuring Snow/Dirt and Deep Snow/Mud settings, further optimizes power distribution and traction control for challenging conditions. The inclusion of a front skid plate adds an extra layer of protection for vital underbody components during off-road excursions.
Powering the 2022 Subaru Outback Wilderness is a robust 2.4-liter turbocharged SUBARU BOXER engine, delivering 260 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque. This engine provides ample power for both on-road cruising and off-road adventures, ensuring confident performance in various driving scenarios. Inside, the Wilderness trim features water-resistant StarTex upholstery, copper-colored accents, and exclusive badging, blending durability with a distinctive aesthetic. The roof rack system is also enhanced for greater load capacity, accommodating larger roof-top tents and cargo carriers for extended expeditions.
For drivers seeking a vehicle that seamlessly blends everyday practicality with exceptional off-road capability, the 2022 Subaru Outback Wilderness delivers. It’s a versatile SUV designed to empower your adventures, wherever the trail may lead.
