2010 Outback

Subaru’s fourth-generation Outback appeals to buyers with active lifestyles, with a new roof rail and integrated crossbar design, enhanced ground clearance, and a new continuously variable automatic transmission. Pricing for the 2010 Outback begins at $22,995, for the base model: power comes from a 170-horsepower four-cylinder engine and a six-speed manual transmission.

All-wheel drive is standard for all four grades, giving the Outback all-weather, all-terrain capability. The base 2.5i model features Subaru’s hill holder system that keeps the car from slipping backwards on steep grades, a new ‘eco’ gauge, ambient temperature reading, and remote keyless entry. The standard AM/FM stereo with single-disc CD player is MP3 compatible. Automatic headlamps, variable intermittent wipers, and a 60/40 split folding rear seat are also standard.

The 2.5i Premium model adds a 10-way power driver’s seat, sixteen-inch wheels, halogen fog lamps, a cargo cover and leather wrapped steering wheel. Pricing begins at $24,295 with the six-speed manual; $25,295 for the automatic.

The 2.5i Limited comes standard with the automatic transmission, dual zone climate controls, seventeen-inch wheels, upgraded audio system and an all-weather package that includes heated seats, windshield wiper de-icers and heated outside mirrors. Pricing for the Limited begins at $27,995. Read the rest of this entry »
