The Subaru Outback started its life as a wagon all the way back in the ‘90s. Built on the bones of the Subaru Legacy, the Outback has grown considerably over the last three decades. Now a crossover, the Subaru Outback helps give Subaru customers a flat-four-powered SUV that still scratches that wagon itch. This sixth-generation Outback came online a scant few years ago for the 2020 model year and has recently tacked on the Wilderness Edition. This Wilderness Edition adds some extra cladding, a mild lift and all-terrain tires. Powering the Outback Wilderness is a 2.4-liter turbocharged flat-four that sends 260 hp and 277 lb-ft of torque through a continuously variable transmission and into a standard all-wheel-drive system.

In this episode of Quick Spin, Patrick Carone hops behind the wheel of the Subaru Outback Wilderness and puts it through its paces.
