2010 Subaru Outback: Flawlessly logical

In 1982, forgoing his common penchant for American cars, bought himself a brand new Subaru GL sedan...in pale yellow. It had a 1.8-litre, 71 horsepower engine, front-wheel drive and a five-speed manual transmission with a clutch hard sufficient to sculpt your thight after only a couple of starts and stops.

Almost 30 years later, Subaru has come terribly long way. Formerly little cars that rusted as soon as you looked at them, Subaru models have become models of civility and gentleness. Note that ALL cars are much more subtle, and Subaru is just following the trend. And today, in several ways, this little Japanese brand has surpassed its rivals.

When Subaru completely overhauled is Legacy/Outback duo last fall, it detained the opportunity to simplify its line.

From now on, the Legacy is an intermediate sedan, while the Outback is offered only as a wagon (although it’s more like a crossover).

In fact, driving at standard speed of 115 km/hr, we had an average fuel consumption of 7.8 L/100 km. A few weeks before, we reconnected with the Outback PZEV.
