About the Subaru Outback
The Subaru Outback is a versatile station wagon that blends the practicality of a family car with the capability of an SUV, making it ideal for Kenyan families and outdoor enthusiasts. With its standard all-wheel drive, it handles both urban roads and rough terrains with ease, which is perfect for those traveling upcountry or navigating Nairobi's unpredictable weather. The Outback is popular among those who value safety and reliability, offering a spacious interior and a comfortable ride.
Pros
- Excellent AWD capability
- Spacious interior
- Comfortable ride
- Good safety features
Cons
- Thirsty in city traffic
- Higher maintenance costs
- Potential head gasket issues
- Limited ground clearance for extreme off-road
Reliability
The Outback is generally reliable, with the EJ25 engine known for its durability. However, regular maintenance is crucial to avoid issues like head gasket failures. The AWD system is robust but requires periodic checks to maintain its performance.
Maintenance
Routine maintenance is straightforward, but the Outback's AWD system and automatic transmission require attention to detail. Service intervals should be strictly followed, and using quality fluids is essential to prevent premature wear. Subaru specialists are available in major towns, but costs can be higher than average.
Parts availability
Parts are widely available in Nairobi's Kirinyaga Road and Grogan areas, as well as through Subaru's authorized dealers. Genuine parts are recommended, especially for the AWD system, though aftermarket options exist for less critical components. Some specific parts, like the CV joints, can be pricier.
Fuel economy
The Outback's petrol engine is reasonably efficient for its size, though it can be thirsty in Nairobi's stop-and-go traffic. On highways, it performs better, offering more respectable fuel economy figures.
What to check before buying
- Head gasket leaks
- CV joint wear
