Subaru introduces all new 2015 Outback with a bold design and roomy interior

The 2015 Outback 2.5i is powered by an improved FB series 2.5-litre BOXER engine that originally debuted in 2013, albeit with slightly more power at 175bhp while peak torque remains at 235Nm - although spread over a broader engine speed range for a more responsive performance.

In the Outback 3.6R Limited, the 3.6-litre six-cylinder engine produces 256bhp and 334Nm of peak torque - with at least 304Nm of torque available between 2,000rpm to 6,000 rpm.

New for 2015, all Outback models come standard with the Lineartronic CVT, which features paddle-shift control switches and is instrumental in the new Outback's significantly improved fuel economy of 11.9km/L on the 2.5i and 9.3km/L (both combined) on the 3.6R respectively. 

A new Active Grille Shutter system on the 2.5i aids fuel economy by reducing drag while an electric power-assisted steering and improved aerodynamics also contribute to the increased efficiency in all models.

The 2015 Outback provides stellar safety performance, adding new front seat-cushion airbags that help to keep occupants in place in a frontal collision. All cars are standard fitted with a rear-view camera, and a new rollover sensor, which can deploy the side curtain airbags if an imminent rollover is detected.

The 2015 Outback also offers the latest EyeSight driver assist system, utilising a Subaru developed stereo camera technology, which integrates Adaptive Cruise Control, Pre-Collision Braking and Vehicle Lane Departure Warning.
