If you're interested in buying or leasing a 2016 Subaru Outback, read our article about its new technology features below.

Rearview Backup Camera

Each trim on the 2016 Subaru Outback comes with a rearview backup camera, which provides an extra set of eyes for the driver while the car is in reverse. The rearview backup camera displays objects behind the wagon on a screen in its front console to prevent collisions while backing up and greatly increases driver visibility.

EyeSight Driver Assist Technology

With EyeSight Driver Assist Technology, the 2016 Subaru Outback always stays one step ahead. Two cameras by the rearview mirror monitor objects in front of the wagon and then send an audio and a visual alert if it senses a possible frontal collision. If the driver doesn't apply the brakes, the technology will do so automatically. It's available on 2.5i Premium, 2.5i Limited, and 3.6R Limited trims.

Subaru Starlink In-Vehicle Technology

Available on all 2016 Subaru Outback models, Starlink integrates smartphone entertainment with the dashboard. Starlink comes with Pandora app integration and is available with a 7-inch in-dash touchscreen and voice controls.

Starlink also has Safety Plus and Security Plus Packages, which includes automatic collision notification and enhanced roadside assistance. It also has remote security, so drivers can lock and unlock the car using a computer or smartphone. Safety Plus is standard on 2.5i Premium, 2.5i Limited, and 3.6R Limited trims. 

Bluetooth Connectivity

Bluetooth hands-free technology is standard on every 2016 Subaru Outback model and allows the driver to manage phone and audio system with voice and steering wheel controls. Bluetooth eliminates distractions from mobile devices so drivers can keep their eyes on the road.

Voice-Activated GPS Navigation

This optional feature on the 2016 Subaru Outback includes a 7-inch touchscreen display and XM NavTraffic and uses voice command to take you to your point of interest. XM NavTraffic uses satellite radio to detect traffic and road construction to shorten estimated travel time. It comes in handy if you are taking a long road trip or are pressed for time while travelling.

X-Mode

Subaru's X-Mode comes on all versions of the 2016 Subaru Outback. It enhances the symmetrical all-wheel drive system, adjusts the response from the engine, deploys braking and traction control while driving on slippery roads, and helps navigate hills with Hill Descent Control. X-Mode ensures that your 2016 Subaru Outback runs smoothly no matter the road surface.
