2020 Subaru Outback

New Subaru Outback Locked in for SA in 2026

The 7th-generation new Subaru Outback is confirmed for launch in South Africa later this year. Here’s what you can expect.

Subaru fans can celebrate as Subaru Southern Africa has confirmed the new 7th-generation Outback will be coming to our market later this year. As a reminder, its essentially a raised spacious station wagon which has offroad capabilities.

The new Subaru Outback is offered with a choice of two engines, but at this stage its unclear whether we’re getting both. Kicking off the range is a naturally-aspirated 2.5 flat 4-cylinder petrol making 134 kW and 241 Nm. Those wanting more punch can opt for the 194 kW and 376 Nm from a turbocharged 2.4 flat 4-cylinder petrol. Both engines have Subaru’s Lineartronic continuously variable transmission.

When is the new Subaru Outback coming to South Africa?

The 7th-generation Subaru Outback is confirmed to launch later in 2026. For a pricing estimate, we look at the current iteration of Outback and as of April 2026, R839 000 gets you into the range, with the flagship model topping out at R999 000.
