2024 Subaru Outback Wilderness: Rugged Capability for the Mid-South Adventurer

The 2024 Subaru Outback Wilderness in Geyser Blue is not just another sport utility vehicle; it is a purpose-built tool for those who find their weekend calling in the wooded trails near Millington, TN or the expansive riverfronts of the Mississippi Delta. Whether you are navigating the morning commute through the suburban streets of Cordova, TN or loading up for a fishing trip across the river, this vehicle provides a unique blend of rugged durability and daily practicality. Designed to stand out with its elevated stance and specialized accents, the Wilderness trim is the most capable iteration of the Outback ever produced, perfectly suited for the diverse lifestyles found throughout the Memphis metropolitan area.

Performance & Capability

Under the hood of this Geyser Blue adventurer lies a potent 2.4L H-4 gasoline direct injection engine. This intercooled turbo powerplant delivers a robust 260HP, providing the necessary muscle for merging onto the highway or climbing steep grades. The engine is paired with an 8-speed Lineartronic CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) featuring a Sequential shift with steering wheel controls, allowing you to take manual control of your gear ratios when the terrain demands it. To ensure the powertrain remains protected during demanding drives, Subaru has equipped this model with a Heavy-duty transmission oil cooler and a Transmission fluid temp warning system.

Capability is at the heart of the Wilderness experience. The Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system works in tandem with the X-MODE selectable mode transmission, which allows you to optimize the drivetrain for specific conditions like deep snow or mud. The Off-road ride suspension, featuring an Independent front suspension and Double wishbone rear suspension, provides increased ground clearance and improved articulation. This setup is ideal for those living in West Memphis, AR, where riverbank access or rural work sites often require more than a standard passenger car can offer. For efficiency during city stops, the Auto stop-start engine helps manage fuel consumption, while the Aluminum engine block and Stainless steel quasi-dual exhaust demonstrate Subaru's commitment to long-term durability.

Technology & Connectivity

The interior of the 2024 Subaru Outback Wilderness is a hub of modern connectivity, centered around the Subaru STARLINK 11.6 inch primary display. This high-resolution touchscreen serves as the command center for the TomTom Navigation w/what3words integrated system, ensuring you can find your way to the most remote trailheads or hidden local spots. Staying connected is seamless thanks to Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smart device mirroring, allowing you to access your favorite apps without the clutter of cables.

Communication is handled safely via Bluetooth® handsfree wireless device connectivity and Voice activated audio controls, letting you keep your hands on the wheel while adjusting your media or placing a call. The vehicle is equipped with 5 USB ports, ensuring that everyones devices stay charged during long trips out to the rural reaches of the region. For added convenience, the STARLINK Concierge provides turn-by-turn navigation assistance, and the SiriusXM 360L Platinum trial offers a vast array of entertainment options. The ECO feedback display gauge within the 4.20 inch gauge cluster display also helps you monitor your driving habits for better efficiency on every journey.

Comfort & Interior

Step inside to find an interior designed for the realities of an active life. The Gray StarTex leatherette front seat upholstery is not only stylish with its copper stitching and embossed Wilderness logos, but it is also water-repellent and easy to clean—perfect for those weekend trips where mud or sand might find their way into the cabin. Both the Heated front seats and Heated rear seats ensure that every passenger stays comfortable during chilly Tennessee mornings, while the Heated steering wheel adds a layer of luxury for the driver.

The cabin environment is managed by Dual-zone front climate control with Voice-activated climate control, allowing for precise temperature adjustments. Practicality is prioritized with a Power Liftgate featuring Proximity cargo area access, making it easy to load groceries or gear even when your hands are full. The 60-40 folding rear seats and Roll-up cargo cover provide versatile storage solutions, complemented by a Vinyl/rubber cargo mat and Cargo Sidewall Protector to keep the interior pristine. Whether you are navigating the daily school run or heading out on a cross-state road trip, the Power driver seat with 2-way power lumbar and Power passenger seat ensure a fatigue-free experience for everyone on board.

Safety & Driver Assistance

Subarus reputation for safety is fully realized in the Outback Wilderness through the EyeSight Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Centering technology. These systems work together to reduce driver fatigue during long stretches of highway driving. Peace of mind is further enhanced by Blind Spot Detection (BSD) and Reverse Automatic Braking (RAB), which provide an extra set of eyes when navigating tight parking lots or backing out of a driveway.

The vehicle is built with a comprehensive 8 airbag system, including a Driver side knee airbag and a Front passenger seat cushion airbag. For those traveling with family, the Manual rear child safety door locks and Airbag occupancy sensor provide essential protection. Technical safety features like Active Torque Vectoring brake actuated limited slip differential and EyeSight Pre-Collision Braking with pedestrian impact prevention work proactively to help you avoid incidents before they occur. Furthermore, the STARLINK Safety Plus system includes an Emergency SOS function, providing a direct link to assistance whenever it is needed most.

Exterior & Design

The exterior of the 2024 Subaru Outback Wilderness is finished in the striking Geyser Blue paint, a color exclusive to the Wilderness family. Its rugged aesthetic is defined by Black bodyside cladding, Black front and rear bumpers, and a Black grille, all of which serve to protect the bodywork from brush and debris. The 17-inch Matte Black Aluminum-Alloy wheels are wrapped in All-Terrain tires, providing the grip necessary for surfaces that go beyond the pavement.

Visibility is a priority, evidenced by the Steering Responsive Headlights (SRH) that turn with the steering wheel to illuminate corners. The LED front fog lights and LED daytime running lights ensure you are seen and can see in all conditions. Functional design elements include a Full roof rack with a 150 lbs. maximum roof rack load capacity, perfect for kayaks or cargo carriers. The Power Moonroof with tilt and slide functionality allows you to bring the outdoors in, while the Auto-Dimming Exterior Mirrors with Approach Light provide added safety and convenience when returning to the vehicle after dark.
