Thank you for your well done, informative video. I have a regular 2017 Outback that I recently went up an unimproved logging road with. After about 100 yards I realized I had made a mistake as the road was all washed out, but there was no way to turn around (a steep ravine on one side and a mountain on the other). I clicked the Xmode and it got me through without a problem. It looks like the Wilderness version will be even better.

[@afcgeo882]

It has the ground clearance of a full-size cat. The big con of this being so high off the ground, but having a lower, more reclined seating setup is the reduced visibility forward. Your sight lines, sitting higher up off the ground, are angled down toward the ground more than when you are lower, but the dash and hood edges are still in the same place, making it harder to see the ground by your hood. Simple geometry. The sight lines were created for a Subaru Levorg, which is only about 4-5” off the ground, but they’ve added a whole 5” more. I’ll bet over a foot, possibly two of roadway are not seen in comparison to the Legacy. It’d be interesting to compare the two.

[@Talerigm]

Good point, I'm currently driving VW Alltrack (same idea - jacked up wagon) and forward visibility compared with the regular Golf is noticeably worse.

[@Hallowsaw]

I suspect subaru may come out with a 360 camera eventually. Also people lift their outbacks all the time and put aftermarket tires on them. Subaru is just trying to cash out on what people are already doing themselves. So if people are doing it im sure they dont mind the slight worse visibility.

[@triaxe-mmb]

I don't have this trim but my 2015 3.6Limited is not that bad...better than my 2016 CX5, 2017 Crosstrek, or 2003 highlander...yeah my family owns a lot of boring CUVs...

Alex is one of the very best car reviewers on the internet. Many, including myself, enjoy Alex's presentations as the most complete, well researched and enjoyable to watch reviewers across the wide spectrum of car reviewers and car enthusiasts. This review of the Subaru Wilderness is no exception. Regarding the Wilderness vehicles, the thought seems obvious that Subaru has diverged dramatically from their long held game plan. Subaru can proclaim themselves as providing love for the environment (as is the theme of their advertising) or they can push the Wilderness line of vehicles as being capable of travelling over terrain that is not meant for vehicular traffic. Subaru can love the environment or they can have disdain for the environment, but they cannot do both. As an added thought, the current Subaru Outback- especially the Onyx XT- is in many ways a very beautiful vehicle. With its graceful flowing lines coupled with its marvelous capabilities, the Onyx XT is really quite remarkable. The Wilderness vehicles, from an esthetic view, look like they were designed by a 6th grader with a crayon. The Outback's flowing lines are completely broken up and goofy, and the "go where no vehicle other than a Jeep has gone before" capability of the Wildernes makes no sense. Wilderness owners will perhaps have the feeling that they can go over rocks, untracked hills, valleys and rivers, but to do so they will be tearing up land that is meant to be pristine. Besides, there will be no grocery stores and quick stop stores in the "Wilderness". Once the Wilderness owners do get to a destination which is vastly more suitable to visitation by horseback, why would they want to sleep on top of their cars? The purpose of being in the wild is to enjoy the wild. That is hard to do on top of your car. It would be a long reach, for example, to roast that marshmellow over a crackling fire dangling from the roofrails of your "Wilderness". And, it would be a long step down to pee in the woods. One would have to attempt that maneuver from the roof of the car. Back spray would be unaccepatable. Although that 6th grader would love it. What were you thinking, Subaru?

[@thereissomecoolstuff]

"T-shirt Tags" dammit Alex, you are the best.

[@TurfSurf]

Capabilitywise, this car is more than what most people need unless you are a hardcore off-roader. The buying decision will mostly be the preference on the look, budget and fuel economy. If there’s a SHTF scenario, I will take this over a Jeep or Bronco for reliability, cargo capacity and mpg.

In some countries they have a rare locking diffs for the Outback. Im curious if they will make this more universal one day.

[@stephenhendricks103]

Great video as usual, Alex. The discussion of Subaru's AWD design and its advantages and disadvantages compared to others should be required viewing for both Subaru fans and the brand's detractors. Detailed and balanced. Kudos. Based on my experience with two KIA Sorentos over the last decade, if I were shopping in this category I'd opt for the Santa Fe over the Outback, as well. The Santa Fe's AWD design, identical to the Sorento's, offers a driver controlled center locking differential that I've found to be especially useful in adverse conditions such as deep snow. In fact, I'd reluctantly sacrifice the Sorento's occasional use third row and select the Santa Fe vs the KIA as well. Unfortunately, KIA has decided to drop the second row bench in favor of captain chairs from all but the lowest trims of the current Sorento, a decision that also means the 2.5L turbo engine cannot be combined with a second row bench. That's a deal breaker for me. Even so, while I'd opt for the Santa Fe, the Outback represents a tempting compromise for a substantial consumer segment whose priorities don't include serious off-roading but who do want a vehicle that can tackle comfortable commuter duty comfortably as well as longer trips that involves unpaved roads and well maintained trails. Moreover, while the Outback's AWD design isn't the most capable in extreme conditions, it's an excellent choice for families like mine who live in the Pacific Northwest where winters are often messy if not extreme.

[@RangerRickTV]

What's better for off-roading? Outback or Forester?

[@BaldKiwi117]

Both are fairly capable. The outback beats the forester on power and just slightly more ground clearance but the forester has better approach and departure angles

@@BradleyEdwardAnderso Similarly, I'm not a huge fan of some of the aesthetic choices of Subaru on this wagon. However, the capabilities of the vehicle fit exactly what I'm looking for in a vehicle, so in a year or two this may be a contender for my next car. I like the combo of utility and efficiency, and for the types of outdoors activities that I do, it's absolutely perfect.

[@Holtenstein]

Subaru comes from an off-road rally background. Yes, it does Off-road but it's designed to go off-road at speed, not slow crawls. I think many Americans are thinking jeep and truck off-road and not rally racing off-road. When you compare the Subaru to fast off-road driving cars then it's basically in a category with very few other vehicles. These were never meant to crawl over rocks but rather haul butt on gravel and dirt roads. In that, the Jeep will not keep up at all.

[@AP-cc1uw]

Thanks for the comparison to the Grand Cherokee. However, I didn't think there was a rear locker available on them, rather a limited slip differential, even on the Trail Hawk.

[@Kristian_Saile]

I find the lack of at least a rear lsd on the Wilderness perplexing. I spent some time in the late 2000’s using an ‘05 Outback XT fir pretty extensive backcountry trips in the west. It had a slightly larger than stock set of Geolanders on it and a RTT. With the auto trans, the rear lsd, and the really capable center diff they incorporated at that time it could put traction down so smoothly, even in situations where a tire was well off the ground. Granted it didn’t have the clearance of these new Outback’s, especially the Wilderness, it went to a lot of places with little drama. In fact, at the time, showing up at one of the first Overland Expos it was pretty clear people hadn’t really seen a RTT on a car before like that. Fast forward to today and with the rubber band like CVT, which I detest, not having a rear lsd, the traction control systems in these use the brakes which further hinder the rubbery feeling CVT. I think that has a lot to do with the lack of low speed finesse here you refer to. Add a front and rear lsd on this Wilderness and I bet it would be a pretty potent setup despite the CVT effects.

Your explanation of low speed crawling vs this type of awd (brake managed) with no lockers is right on spot, and valide for all non-locker cars. The fact of braking wheels in order to go forward is quite wierd. If they could have electronically controlled clutch pack up front and rear it would be miles better as fully locking 2 wheels together does not brake the car momentum. These should be optionat even on subarus as being stuck in deep snow and the awd system not engaging is pretty frustrating. No need to be a full on off roader to appreciate great mechanical engineering.

Also some dealers are adding a market/demand fee to them and selling them over MSRP. I ended up ordering one from a dealer (because none in the area were the non moonroof package model) which also allowed me to skip some of the more frivolous accessories too.
