The new Outback's full-width tail light bar has a 2 ft ruler built in, for measuring whatever you are about to load.
One model props up an entire segment: the Outback alone accounts for more than 80% of all new station wagons sold in the US.
This Outback's high beams never fully switch off — Subaru's Adaptive Driving Beam instead shutters out just the part of the light hitting oncoming drivers.
A wagon beat the SUVs at their own game: this Outback generation won Motor Trend's Sport/Utility of the Year award for 2010.
This Outback shared Top Gear's Car of the Year crown — an unusual honor for a jacked-up wagon to split with the Ford Mondeo in 2007.
For a few years, this Outback's six-cylinder trim came with genuine McIntosh audio — the same esteemed hi-fi name found in home theaters, one of the only cars ever to get it from the factory.
Subaru didn't have the budget for an all-new SUV, so it dressed up a Legacy wagon instead. A Subaru of America executive later put it bluntly: "[the Outback] saved our company."
