The new Outback has more powerful engines, new tech, and, of course, all-wheel drive.

Pros
Competent off-road,
spacious interior,
leading-edge tech features.

Cons
Ho-hum powertrains,
slow design evolution,
occasionally sluggish CVT.

By: 
caranddriver.com

Pros
Beautifully sculpted bodywork,
delightfully athletic and equally refined,
decidedly more premium than competitors.

Cons
Non-turbo engine needs more oomph,
can only tow up to 2000 pounds,
unremarkable cargo capacity.

By:

Pros
Classy cabin
Sporty ride
Lots of standard safety features

Cons
Below-average cargo space for the class
Cramped rear seats
