Definitely need to put X-Mode into deep snow/mud for that hill climb and it would have been able to handle it just fine. The dirt/snow mode will disengage over 25mph but the deep snow/mud will not, the wheels are spinning over 25mph when trying to climb that hill so that is why this is super important. You can add a locking diff to it as well but I digress, stock is what you're reviewing just don't forget to review all the features when trying stuff like that to see it's full capabilities.

Not weird. Combine Lexus and 4-Runner in one package. No competition. Had a 4-Runner brand new for rental and was tired after a couple of hrs of highway driving. In an Outback if you owned one you can drive forever and never feel tired. Steering one finger vs. Toyota's famous all over the place steering. See better, rides better, much quieter, doesn't rollover. Rock crawlers have their own place in the dirt 90% of the time and unless that's where you live, no reason to get one other than a second vehicle dedicated for fun.

Nice review! As an owner of a 2020 Outback Onyx XT and previously 2014 and 2017 Forester XT I totally agree about the fake shifts. I definitely preferred the shiftless I and S modes in the 2014 Forester XT and was annoyed that they changed it on the newer versions. I guess they're just trying to appeal to the "Purist" type of people that are used to shifts and can't wrap their brain around the CVT concept and efficiency. The fake shifts just kill the boost and actually make it slower to accelerate even though for some it might feel more fast/sporty. Would be nice to at least have the option for both like they used to.

About this hill climb you had to activate the deep mud&snow X-mode becuase it was slipery steep hill climb,although its dry,this option gives to all wheels to spin .in a regular X Mode use the wheels stop by the traction control that move power from side to side this cause the car to loose energy in the climb. If you will try again I think the Wilderness will climb this hill.i have the Sport model with the dual X mode fanction. Thanks a lot.

It allows a little wheel spin and gives the slightly slow off-roading logic a better chance to solve the traction puzzle.

Something Subaru has ALWAYS needed to add to their cars is electronically lockable differentials, front and rear, as (them NOT having) that one specific thing severely limits their hill climbing ability! I had a 1991 Legacy wagon with 4WD and a 5-speed manual transmission, and that thing was great off road, except in extreme off camber or extremely steep or rutted hills, anything that made more than one wheel lift off the ground at the same time. That's where open diffs fail everytime! If Subaru would ever offer the option of having locking diffs in the front and rear, (and also an extremely low range hill climbing gear or something, since they don't have a 2-speed transfer case like a 4WD truck usually does), then Subaru could finally have a really decent off roader, especially if they also keep the ground clearance decent, and have the upgraded suspension like you mentioned!

Also get an SUV that can carry more and do some real off-roading it doesn't have to be hardcore rock crawling but just actual off-roading with big rocks and washed-out spots. Why have to have you something breaking plastic when you can just have something you can actually do it easier? I really feel like the majority of the people who forced them to go off-road constantly have to justify how it's not a Jeep when really they want to be able to go up some tougher things otherwise what's the point of taking those little Subaru dirt roads the spots that slowly turn more fun if you're not going to have the more fun?

Also if you want to do 0-60 times on a Subaru equipped with X-Mode always place in the same as above. Doing so will give you approximately 20% lower first gear ratio so you can get a better 60’ time. You can feel the difference. Just saying for a friend.

It's annoying that this off-road(ish) marketed vehicle can't climb that hill and likely most of us immediately start thinking of what could be changed to get 'er done but it seems that any of those changes would add inefficiency and/or cost so there is a trade-off, and decision to be made, with every one of them. Realistically I bet that only about .001% of buyers of this vehicle would be upset that it couldn't climb that hill though likely most will do more off-road(ish) type activities because they have it and all would be using it as their daily driver and opt for the efficiencies.

Would love to see what they have in store for the Crosstrek Wilderness Edition 🤔 Although I did just buy a Bronco Sport thanks to Sarah's video on it

Nice review, wish you tried the dual x mode deep mud and snow on the hill

Static electricity generated during the Bolster Wiggle could easily power a Large Waddle of Penguins.

I found going a little faster is just better with SUBAR and traction control enables as its stability will be ok at a faster speed and yes if you drop typer pressures which you would do for any 4x4 when needed it's just the point where you need to do it that changes. I put a LSD in the rear from a nissan no much needed to be changed both from fuji heavy industries. Make a cheap and instant improvement but the turn of x-mode on dirt or rock hopping.

You should have put it in Xmode deep snow and mud so that the traction control is off and it will allow the wheels to spin more and it would have made it up that hill. Regular or mode 1 X mode still has VDC on, Xmode 2 does not have the traction control breaking wheels.

Sarah did you try deep snow and mud on that hill because it probably would have made it you only tried regular mud and snow it allows less wheel spin deep allows more wheel spin.

Bought one of these in white this summer. I absolutely love it! Put more aggressive Falken WildPeak tires on it and took it off road in Colorado a week ago and it was a billy goat!
