The 2017 Subaru Outback: The Perfect Reason Why You Don't Need an SUV!

[@goton84]

Bought the exact same one from alex at KDG 2 years ago. Honest salesman. The car performance is very good. Comfortable, hardy with good clearance. Not fussy about the CVT as that usually only matters in extreme off roading. Cvt is the reason the fuel economy is good for an engine this size and car this heavy. Problem is people want super cars on normal car budgets.

[@CARNVERSATIONS]

Good feedback and yes I like the way you have put it ‘ people want super cars on a normal car budget’

[@davisnganga6266]

This ride is same price as the toyota premio. I would rather this over the premio any day.

Am a proud owner of Subaru outback BS9 very presentable...law fuel consumption...Good in speed...no police who can dare stop ✋️ it actually they fear it...boda boda and the G_ziiii respect it and where they find it...actually it's a good car 🚗 for selling fear to your reserve friend....

Great car, but DCI spoiled the thrill for most potential buyers especially during maandamano!!

Problem for me is third row seating. How I wish there was a car that matches outback in the on/off road ability but also having the interior seating and boot capacity of a Honda Odyssey. Keep up the good work @carnversations 👍🏾🙌🏾

[@CARNVERSATIONS]

Thank you 🙏

[@leonekabala5090]

Hello , I think the Exiga crossover 7 does that best. it comes with the 2.5L engine. if I had the cash, I would get the 2019 Subaru ascent. it's the size of a Prado.

[@wawerugathungu1117]

@@leonekabala5090 the Subaru ascent actually bigger and more comfortable than a prado, they’re however just meant for the American market. They’re made in Indiana but some parts come from Japan. I wish they could roll them out into other markets too. The Vw atlas is another option but it’s also just made for the American market. The advantage of being a superpower.

Great review as always and glad you mentioned the alltrack versions of the vw. Would be nice to do a review on those, especially the vw golf alltrack. I always feel like their 1.8 ltr turbo engine is on the sweet spot for power and fuel consumption, but how well, does their 4motion play?

[@leonekabala5090]

Great work, Team Carnversations. i have a concern though... is there anything, (Aftermarket), that we can do to sort out the cooling around the cylinder number 4?.

[@CARNVERSATIONS]

Not much to be done, just make sure the quality of oil used is the best quality to reduce unnecessary friction from poor lubrication, allow her to warm well before pushing her hard and observe your coolant flashing routine

they usually feel soo well put together, the only thing that ruined subarus is using CVT

[@gamzaify]

Guys like complaining about the cvt but the recent subarus don't have cvt issues. Unless you're talking about the driving experience, the subaru cvt is actually very superior

[@davidmwangi4312]

​@@gamzaifyVery true, I see no problem with CVT it's very reliable...have driven legacy BRM for 5 years with no issues at all...been a 2.5L. It's gives me about 11.5km/l which is great for it's size and space.

A simple observation the outback compares very well to the Volvo V90 Cross-country..

[@CARNVERSATIONS]

Can the Volvo V90 cross country handle the abuse as well as the Outback? The V90 is more of a luxury, more of an on road type of machine but again am hoping to lay my hands on one to confirm this

Subaru Outback XT was returned to the market due to customer demand around 2022. For the American and Australian markets, they get the 2.4 litre turbo charged, giving 260 HP. Japan has an option of 1.8 litre turbo. Subaru Kenya says they are not allowed to sell the turbo version in Kenya because of our fuel if I am not wrong. You will have to import for yourself.
