The Subaru Outback multipurpose wagon turns 21 in the US today. On August 7, 1995, the Subaru Outback was first launched in the US. Since then, its enjoyed a steady climb as one of Subaru’s most successful all-wheel-drive models. The SUV-alternative vehicle had its best July ever, and there’s been 29 consecutive months of more than 10,000 Outbacks sold in the US.
Remember the 1995 model?
The 1995 Outback was a different kind of vehicle, something that caught on quickly in the US. It featured a unique balance of sporty driving dynamics, flexible interior space that the Legacy wagon delivered on-road, combined in a practical wagon package. The model was given a 7.87-inch ground clearance for off-road excursions.
A premium yet tough looking exterior was designed with an exclusive front façade and bumper, large fog lamps with stone guards, large diameter all-season tires, 2-tone body color, and oversized side protectors.
