Boost confidence on foul-weather roads with these savvy SUVs
Subaru Outback
Subaru’s Outback model is as equally at home on the eastern tip of Maine as the western tip of Washington, and everywhere in between. Like the Forester, the Outback offers drivers a proven all-wheel-drive system backed up by a slew of safety features, and nearly nine inches of ground clearance. Unlike the Forester, the Outback offers more than 70 cu. ft. for groceries or ski gear, returns up to 29 mpg in four-cylinder guise, or can be had with a six-cylinder engine that delivers 256 horsepower and up to 25 mpg on the highway. An All-Weather Package packs in heated front seats, heated mirrors, and a windshield de-icer.
