What to check on the Outback

A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.

Under the hood

The 2.5L 4-cylinder, paired with an automatic (CVT), drives it. It runs on regular gas. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.

The combined figure, 8.2 L/100 km, means roughly 25 litres for 300 km. Expect about $12.71 per 100 km at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,300 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.

When the Outback makes sense

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.

What to expect from the Outback

Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.

Rent it for a week first

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Outback answers the big questions.

Year and trim

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

Running costs

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $127.10 at our price setting.
