Key Differences Between the Subaru Forester and Outback
Whilst they share many features, the Forester and Outback cater to slightly different needs.
The Forester is taller (1,730mm), with better ground clearance (220mm), making it a solid choice for SUV lovers who want hybrid efficiency. It's powered by a 2.0L e-Boxer hybrid engine and priced from £39,995 (Limited) to £44,100 (Touring).
The Outback is longer (4,870mm), has more boot space (561L vs 509L), and a higher towing capacity (2 tonnes vs 1.87), making it the ideal estate-style all-rounder. It features a 2.5L petrol engine and ranges from £40,495 (Limited) to £45,645 (Touring).
In short, choose the Forester if you're after SUV practicality and a hybrid powerchain. Opt for the Outback if you need extra space, towing capability, and a more estate-style drive. Both deliver outstanding off-road performance and everyday comfort.

Green 4 Motor Company is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No. 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd.’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Green 4 Motor Company to act as a credit broker, not a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders. We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor. Our approach is to introduce you first to Mazda Financial Services who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives and which you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. If you purchase a vehicle, in most cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase. Different lenders pay different commissions for such introductions, and Mazda Financial Services may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18s or over. Guarantees may be required.
