Subaru Outback XT pricing released

Subaru New Zealand has released the pricing for its turbocharged Outback XT models, with deliveries starting in December.

Outback XT will kick things off at $62,990 not including on road costs.

The Outback XT Touring premium starts at $67,990 before ORCs.

When the Clean Car Standard fee comes in next year, a charge of $2357.50 will be applied to both models.

Turbocharged power

The new Outback XT and Touring variants each feature a 2.4-litre turbocharged boxer engine that Subaru says makes it the most powerful vehicle the brand offers, generating 183kW and 350Nm of torque.

Both models can now tow 2400kg braked, improving on the outgoing naturally aspirated 2.5-litre Outback’s 2000kg limit.
