JAKARTA - Since returning to the Indonesian automotive market, Subaru has made a number of breakthroughs by launching several of its flagship models such as BRZ, WRX, and Forester. However, the spirit of the competition Subaru seems to never recede.

In the 2023 Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS), Subaru introduced a medium-sized SUV called Outback to the Indonesian market.

The existence of Subaru Outback in GIIAS 2023 is in line with the concept carried by Subaru in its booth, namely "The Earth Circulation". This concept reflects the spirit of Subaru to bring its products closer to nature.

Arie Christopher, CEO of Subaru Indonesia, revealed that Outback is designed by combining luxury, technological innovation from Subaru, and reliable driving skills in various terrain conditions.

"As the Subaru flagship SUV since it was first launched in 1994, OutBACK was designed as a Crossover SUV that combines luxury with Subaru's innovative technologies such as the Subaru Global Platform, the Symmetric All-Wheel Drive driver, the BOXER machine, to the 4th generation Subaru EyeSight safety system," Arie explained.

The latest output comes with a variety of flagship features, including the Subaru Global Platform which is upgraded with a better suspension, increased torque, and stronger chassis.

To add to the impression of adventure, Outback is equipped with a roof rack that can be converted into Crossbar, useful for carrying luggage at the top of the car.

With the concept of "illegal nature" being promoted, the Outback interior is comfortable designed with a wide space of legs in the second row. The chair is covered with soft panel material and Nappa Leather for maximum comfort.

The 11.6-inch multimedia system comes in Outback, integrated with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as X-Mode setting features operated via touch screen. Not to forget, Subaru also provides 12 speakers of Harman Kardon with an amplifier of 576 watts, providing the best audio quality.

Like most Subaru models, Outback also uses a boxer machine. The 2,500 cc Boxer engine generates 185 dk power and 245 Nm torque. Another advantage is good vibration and sound control, providing comfort while driving.

The machine sends power to all four wheels through Active Torque Split AWD drive and Lineatronic transmission. This ensures that torques are well distributed to each wheel.

Subaru Indonesia offers Outbacks with seven color choices, including Crystal White Pearl, Ice Silver Metallic, Magnetite Gray Metallic, Crystal Black Silica, Saphire Blue Pearl, Autumn Green Metallic, and Brilliant Bronze Metallic.

With the various features and luxury offered, Subaru Outback 2023 is valued at around Rp779.5 million On The Road DKI Jakarta.

The presence of Subaru Outback in Indonesia is not without reason. This car is famous for its safety features and has won the Top Safety Pick award for 15 consecutive years. In the United States, Subaru Outback has even sold more than 2.7 million units.
