Kelley Blue Book recently placed the 2015 Subaru Outback on the list of 15 Best Family Cars. While the new Outback definitely has features that families will love, the Subaru Outback has been a big hit with families for years now. So what makes the Outback such a great family vehicle?
Probably the most important thing to look for in a family vehicle is safety. You don't want to cart your family around in a vehicle that isn't safe. The Subaru Outback consistently (along with all other models in the Subaru line up) receives Top Safety Pick ratings from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The 2015 most recently received the Top Safety Pick+ ratings, which requires a vehicle to meet all of the criteria for a Top Safety Pick rating, and also to earn an advanced or superior rating for front crash prevention.
The Subaru Outback is a great vehicle for any family, but it is perfect for active families who love to get outdoors. Camping can be fun no matter what age you are, but a camping trip can be truly magical for children. Staring at big skies peppered with stars, watching the flames of the campfire bounce around and curl around a fresh log, and listening to spooky ghost stories while chomping on warm and gooey s'mores. Subaru’s Symmetrical AWD means that you won't have any trouble navigating those difficult accesses on the way to your family's secret campsite.
Whether you're heading into work, picking your kids up from practice, taking your dog to the vet, or driving back from a weekend of camping, you want your vehicle to be reliable. No smoke pouring out of engines, or lights flashing and beeping, or your vehicle just stopping. Subaru is known for making reliable vehicles. Often, taking your Subaru in for regular, scheduled maintenance is enough to keep it running for years and years without any hiccups.
There's no denying that the Outback is spacious. There's plenty of seating room for your entire family, including your dog. But what really sets the Outback apart is the cargo room. With the back seats up, there’s ample room for groceries, soccer gear, or camping equipment, but when you lower the back seats you can fit just about anything you could possibly want to carry.
While most parents hate to think about it, your children will be driving someday. That's another reason the Subaru Outback is one of the best family vehicles. Subaru makes vehicles that will last. Your Outback might be the family vehicle now, but it can also be your kid's first vehicle.
It's easy to see why the Outback is perfect for families, but if you're still not convinced, stop by today for a test drive and see for yourself!
