The 2026 Outback Wilderness delivers an impressive 9.5 inches of ground clearance, paired with a new upright, more purposeful design that's built for tough trails. New electronically controlled dampers improve traction and ride comfort, keeping the Wilderness stable and composed over uneven terrain. It also comes equipped with standard Bridgestone all-terrain tires and a full-size spare stored in the trunk. Subaru also extended the lower cladding on the front and rear bumpers, adding extra trail protection around high-impact zones.
With up to 3,500 pounds of towing capacity, the Wilderness can pull campers, small trailers, and weekend gear with confidence. The raised roof rails offer a 220-lb dynamic and 800-lb static load capacity, making them perfect for rooftop tents and heavy equipment. Altogether, the 2026 Outback Wilderness is purpose-built for drivers in Bergen County and Orange County who want to go farther, explore harder, and leave the pavement behind without hesitation.
Harman Kardon Premium Audio System: A high-end sound system for an improved listening experience.
Power Moonroof: A glass roof that can tilt and slide.
12.1-inch Multimedia Navigation System: Upgrades the standard display with built-in navigation.
Perforated Nappa Leather-Trimmed Upholstery: A more premium and luxurious interior seating surface (instead of the standard StarTex).
Ventilated Front Seats: Adds cooling for the driver and front passenger seats.
Wireless Device Charger: A pad for charging compatible smartphones.
Surround View Monitor: A system that uses multiple cameras to provide a 360º view around the vehicle for easier maneuvering.
In Mahwah, the Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive grips the pavement, delivering confidence through every turn. Over in Ridgewood, the dual-function X-MODE® (with Snow/Dirt and Deep Snow/Mud modes) ensures no snowy driveway or muddy backroad gets in the way.
The vehicle is built for tough trails with these upgraded features:
New Electronically Controlled Dampers: These sense road conditions in real-time, improving traction and ride comfort by keeping the Wilderness stable and composed over uneven terrain.
Dedicated Off-Road Geometry: Features enhanced approach, departure, and breakover angles compared to other Outback models, reducing the chance of scraping.
All-Terrain Tires: It comes equipped with standard Bridgestone all-terrain tires on exclusive 17-inch matte black wheels and includes a full-size spare stored in the trunk.
Rugged Protection: Subaru extended the lower cladding on the front and rear bumpers, adding extra trail protection around high-impact zones, complemented by a new aluminum alloy front skid plate.
High-Capacity Utility: With up to 3,500 pounds of towing capacity, the Wilderness can pull campers and trailers with confidence. The raised roof rails offer a massive 800-lb static load capacity, making them perfect for rooftop tents and heavy equipment.

The 2026 Subaru Outback Wilderness introduces a refreshed interior built around a cleaner dashboard layout and smarter technology. Front and center are two large digital displays: the new 12.3-inch fully digital, configurable instrument cluster and the 12.1-inch Multimedia Display with a faster processor and standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™.
One of the most welcome updates is the return of physical climate-control buttons and knobs, eliminating the need to dig through touchscreen menus. They sit prominently beneath the main display for quick, intuitive access, and dual-zone climate control now comes standard on every trim.
Interior materials offer either Subaru's durable, water-repellent StarTex® upholstery (standard on Wilderness) or the available, premium Nappa leather with ventilated front seats. Heated front seats and a heated steering wheel are standard in the Outback Wilderness. The cabin also features unique anodized copper accents specific to the Wilderness trim. Altogether, the redesigned cabin brings a smarter, more user-friendly feel that Outback Wilderness drivers will appreciate every day.
