Subaru is charging less for the 2027 Outback than it did for the 2026 model, and the base trim still comes with a 12.1-inch touchscreen and standard all-wheel drive.
The new entry-level Outback starts at $32,995 with a $1,545 Destination & Delivery charge putting the sticker price at $34,540, according to Subaru of America.
That is $1,905 below where the 2026 lineup opened once destination is included.
Subaru pulled off the price cut by bringing back a true entry-level trim below last year's Premium. It's the same move Subaru made with the base Impreza for 2027, inserting a cheaper trim under the existing range rather than discounting across the board.
Every 2027 Outback, base trim included, runs the same 2.5-liter Boxer four-cylinder making 180 horsepower and 178 pound-feet of torque, paired with a CVT and Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive.
The base trim's standard list reads like a Premium trim from a few years back: heated front seats, heated side mirrors, a power tailgate, 18-inch alloy wheels, and 8.7 inches of ground clearance. Driver-assist tech carries over too, with Subaru's EyeSight system and DriverFocus monitoring standard from the start.
Cabin tech doesn't get stripped down either. The base Outback pairs a 12.1-inch touchscreen running wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto with a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, both items that used to be reserved for pricier trims on plenty of competitors.
Step up to the Premium trim at $36,540, and the main difference is upholstery as Subaru swaps the base model's cloth seats for StarTex synthetic leather.
