Subaru Outback Comparison
See How the Subaru Outback Compares to the Competition in Elgin
Huntley and Lake in the Hills drivers love small and midsized SUVs. More efficient than larger SUVs, but far more useful and versatile than smaller cars, these popular rides are sold by all kinds of automakers. Of course, the new Subaru Outback for sale in Elgin is a highly popular SUV that defies typical conventions. With a wagon-like silhouette, relatively efficient base engine, and ample room inside, the Outback easily bests the most popular of small SUVs for sale around Dundee and Algonquin.
To give you an idea why buying or leasing a new Outback from our Elgin, IL is such a great plan, see how our flagship model compares to a few other incredibly popular SUVs. In this case, we're comparing the new Subaru Outback to the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V, two of the most popular SUVs on the market. Learn how the Outback bests the competition in terms of performance, cabin design, technology, safety, and more, then visit Brilliance Subaru at 1500 N Randall Road, Elgin, IL today for a test drive.

Performance
Before getting into what the engines of these popular SUVs deliver, consider how the new Outback comes standard with the Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system. AWD is offered with both the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V, but at the expense of their fuel-economy ratings and at a higher cost than their standard front-wheel drive setups.
While both the RAV4 and CR-V offer more powerful engines - 203 and 190 horsepower, respectively - than the standard Outback with its 182-horsepower output, the Subaru SUV offers a turbocharged upgrade. That turbo four-cylinder bumps you up to 260 horsepower, far exceeding the only engine outputs available for the competitors. That upgrade, thanks to smart Subaru turbocharged engine design work, doesn't even impact fuel economy all that much.
Interior

The Outback settles in between its top two competitors when it comes to cargo space. While the Honda CR-V offers a bit more standard and max cargo room, with all seats folded down, that comes at the expense of head- and leg-room throughout, or less comfort for your passengers. With the smartly arranged cabin of the new Subaru Outback, Dundee drivers and passengers will enjoy 32.6 cubic-feet of standard cargo room, with a max 75.6 cubic-feet when the rear seats are folded down. That's considerably more than what the RAV4 offers with its rear seats folded down. The driver-focused cockpit of the Outback, meanwhile, adds more to the mix with an available panoramic moonroof and ambient interior lighting.
Technology

All three of these SUVs feature tons of tech features. And like Subaru, we know that Toyota and Honda boast having the best in-car tech in the entire auto industry. We'll leave your own personal tastes and preferences to the moment that you test drive a new Outback in Elgin or hop inside a Toyota RAV4 or Honda CR-V elsewhere around Algonquin and Lake in the Hills. But for the actual features we can stack up, you'll find the large 11.6-inch tablet-style touchscreen in the Outback works well with smartphone integration apps, while the Subaru EyeSight suite of driver aids is far better suited for keeping you and your passengers safe while you're on the go compared to similar standard packages in the other two SUVs.
