Exterior Styling and Features

At first glance, you might think that the 2025 Subaru Outback Wilderness is a hatchback or a wagon. The SUV borrows from the aesthetic, but it offers the amenities and performance of an SUV. The exterior styling is functional yet stylish - prepared for whatever the trail may throw at you but looking good while doing it. The Wilderness edition also has a higher ground clearance of 9.5 inches to better accommodate the bumps along the road, as well as 17-inch aluminum alloys wheels with a matte black finish.

Subtle details give the exterior a bit more visual interest, such as the faint grooves running down the hood toward the grille. The hexagonal grille is dissected by a chrome accent bar, while a thin strip of the body runs out from the edge and through the headlight, creating a cohesive design element. Black body cladding is strategically assigned throughout the profile, such as around the air intake vents and the wheel wells. There are also black side mirrors and roof rails.

Exterior features on the Wilderness edition include LED steering responsive headlights, LED fog lights, and body-color door handles. The roof rails on the Wilderness edition also come with integrated tie-down points and anodized copper finish accents. The reinforced rails will support a roof tent so that you can camp anywhere you roam. Finally, a matte black decal on the hood helps to reduce glare.

Interior Styling and Capacity

The interior of the 2025 Subaru Outback Wilderness reflects similar design choices. There are soft-touch and easy-to-clean materials that are ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, yet there are also subtle design touches that elevate the styling.

StarTex water repellent upholstery is wrapped around ergonomic seats. Not only will you be able to easily wipe off any dirt or mud that you track inside, but you'll be able to relax and recover in comfort after long hikes and other adventures. Contrast stitching is featured throughout the upholstery and the interior paneling, creating a tailored look. The steering wheel and shifter knob are both covered in leather.

The dash has a unique design, with multiple sections differentiated. The mid-section is accented by the large infotainment display, flanked by vertical air vents. That section swoops out over the glove box, meeting up with the side vents. The glove box is situated in the lower section, and it juts out slightly to create a grooved edge for holding glasses, change, and other small items.

Seating is available for five, and all passengers will find that they have plenty of room to feel comfortable. There is 109 cubic feet of passenger space. Front row passengers will have 40.1 inches of head room, 42.8 inches of legroom, and 58.1 inches of shoulder room. Meanwhile, rear seat passengers will have 39.1 inches of head room, 39.5 inches of legroom, and 57.4 inches of shoulder room.

There's 32.6 cubic feet of cargo space behind the seats, ensuring that you also have the space you need to carry your gear. Fold down the rear seats and you'll gain even more space.

 

Power and Performance

The 2025 Subaru Outback Wilderness is designed for outdoor adventure in mind. It delivers the power and performance you'll need to go wherever your spirit takes you.

The Wilderness is powered by a 2.4-liter turbocharged DOHC BOXER engine that puts out 260 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque. The engine is an upgrade from what comes with the base model Outback, increasing the horsepower by nearly 80 and the torque by nearly 100. The engine on the Wilderness is paired with the same Lineartronic continuously variable transmission that is offered on all Outback models.

Symmetrical all-wheel drive is standard on the 2025 Wilderness, as it is across all Outback models. X-MODE is also included, which optimizes engine output and increases all-wheel drive system engagement, among other performance enhancements. On the Wilderness, the X-MODE includes a Snow/Dirt and Deep Snow/Mud feature, as well as low- and medium-to-high-speed functions.

Other performance features on the Wilderness include hill descent control, vehicle dynamics control, and active torque vectoring. There are also all-terrain tires and front skid plates, helping you to tackle rocky roads with ease.

When you need to bring along extra gear, the Wilderness is capable of towing up to 3,500 pounds.

Fuel economy is estimated at 21 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway.

Infotainment and Technology Features

Driving the 2025 Subaru Outback Wilderness will not only be comfortable, it will also be fun, thanks to its advanced features. The infotainment system is displayed on a large, 11.6-inch screen that is connected to a premium Harman Kardon speaker system. The infotainment system includes 4G LTE wi-fi capability and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. There is also wireless Bluetooth pairing for hands-free calling and music streaming. Illuminated USB-C and USB-A ports keep everyone's devices charged and ready to play.

The Wilderness is loaded with additional technology features that enhance the ride for everyone. Dual-zone automatic climate control keeps everyone comfortable, and there are auto-up and down windows in all positions with anti-pinch protection. There's keyless access with push-button start, as well as a hands-free power liftgate that automatically closes.

The driver will enjoy features like the auto-dimming rearview mirror, transmission paddle shifters, steering wheel-mounted controls, electronic parking brake, and auto on/off headlights.

There are plenty of storage options throughout the cabin, including eight cup and bottle holders, an overhead console, and a center console. In the rear, you'll find a retractable cargo area cover and a removable cargo area tray.

The 2025 Subaru Outback Wilderness is designed to be just fun and comfortable to drive no matter how difficult the terrain may be outside, making it the ideal SUV for your everyday drive and your weekend expeditions.

Safety Features

With great power comes great responsibility, and the 2025 Subaru Outback Wilderness is loaded with features to help reduce your risk on the road. The Wilderness comes with the Subaru EyeSight Driver Assistance suite of safety features, including advanced adaptive cruise control with lane centering, lane departure and sway warning, pre-collision braking, and automatic emergency steering. All of the features have been specifically calibrated for the Wilderness to take into account its higher ground clearance and other off-road upgrades.

Additional safety features are included on the Outback Wilderness, including high beam assistance, blind spot detection, rear cross traffic alert, vehicle dynamics control, traction control, and a 180-degree front-view monitor.

Keyless entry system and an anti-theft system also protect the vehicle itself from theft.

 

Optional Features

The 2025 Subaru Outback Wilderness comes packed with advanced features, but some drivers may want a little more. Optional features are available to help you customize your Wilderness to your unique needs and preferences.

A power moonroof is available for those who like to see the stars while they're getting away from the city lights.

Interior accessories are available, such as a cup holder mounted phone holder, rear seat sun shades, wireless charging pad, and cargo net. You can also upgrade with protections and the covers for the seatbacks, doors, and more.
