on

The 2008 Subaru Outback is worth a look if you are interested in finding a quality used small-sized SUV. The Subaru Outback offers a nice ride and quick power with its XT Limited’s turbocharged engine.

The Outback provides a good choice for smaller families that do not require as much back seat capacity as a larger family.

Smaller families will appreciate the 2008 Subaru Outback for its driving ability and performance, overall comfort, and safety.

The performance will provide a comfy environment for its passengers as well as tackle rough terrain and snowy highways.

A favorite of motor enthusiasts, the XT Limited comes with a turbocharged 2.5 liter, flat 4-engine. Subaru has an SI system that allows the driver establish engine performance for either the ride or the fuel economy. This feature comes in three styles, Intelligent, Sport or Sport Sharp. The Sport Sharp offers quick and smooth response to throttle adjustments where the Intelligent is a bit thicker when it comes to acceleration; this mode saves on gas mileage.

The 2008 Subaru Outback provides a smooth, sleek ride for its passengers as well as gives a more agile drive around twists and turns.

Although there are an abundant number of trim models available with the Subaru, there are standard features on all models.

Some of these features are for added performance such as the all-wheel drive, but most of these features lead to the area of added comfort.

Features such as MP3 player jack, satellite ready stereo system with CD player, outside temperature display, automatic locks and windows, keyless entry and roof rails provide added perks for the Subaru driver and its passengers.

Inside you will find faux-type wood highlights, tastefully done, simple controls and nice and neat panels from which to operate the car. Overall seating is comfortable although larger teenagers may find it a bit cramped in the back seat.

With the back seat upright, you will have 33 feet of cargo space behind your passengers. Put the back seat down and you will double that cargo room to 66 cubic feet for plenty of hauling space.

The upper end L.L. Bean Model has leather interior as well as a leather and mahogany steering wheel. This model exudes class when it comes to the Subaru Outback.

Now, let’s take a look at some of the safety features that the Outback provides to give maximum protection for you and your family.

Front seat side airbags and anti-whiplash headrests keep the driver and front seat passenger safely in their seat in case of a crash. In addition the back seat passengers will be protected with full-length side curtain airbags. And, finally, anti-lock brakes and stability controls are featured in the 2008 Subaru Outback.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gives it a 5 star rating for both front and side impact crash tests.

Due to the safety, performance and comfort you may discover that the 2008 Subaru Outback is a quality choice for you and your family.
