Explore the latest developments concerning Tough 2026 Subaru.
The new-generation 2026 Subaru Outback has been priced from $48,990 plus on-road costs (ORCs), with five variants set to be offered across the Outback, Premium, Touring, Wilderness, and Wilderness Apex grades.
Having debuted at the New York motor show in April, the seventh-gen Outback is just about here and it’s launching with not one, but two hardcore Wilderness variants at the top of tree.
However, starting at the bottom of the range, the entry-level Outback all-wheel drive (AWD) is powered by a carryover 2.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine developing 137kW/254Nm – 1kW less than before – but stands 7mm higher off the ground than its predecessor and offers an extra 8-litre of boot space (530L).
Subaru has confirmed the next-generation Outback and the Wilderness sub-brand for Australia, but the boxy new SUV will bring higher prices.
Subaru has confirmed the heavily revised seventh-generation Outback is coming to Australia in 2026, when it will bring an edgier design, a larger body, and a price rise of nearly $5000 at the bottom of the range.
The newest iteration of Subaru’s wagon-like ‘large’ SUV was revealed at the New York motor show in April this year, showcasing boxier proportions with more aggressive styling and a higher roofline, and vastly improved interior tech.
Australian specifications leaked in government documents earlier this year have now been confirmed, along with local pricing for the new model, via a recorded video presentation. The five-variant Outback range now starts at $48,990 before on-roads, which is $4800 more than the outgoing model at the bottom of the lineup.
