The Subaru Outback has long been considered to be a family-friendly, adventure-loving vehicle that's pretty much in a segment unto itself. However, for drivers in Milford, CT, Branford, Wallingford, and Stratford, doing a comparison is a great start to the shopping experience, so you can determine which model fits you best. That's why we've taken the time to match the Outback against its similarly-styled rival -- the Volkswagen Tiguan-- to show how the Outback's unique design overshadows its more cookie-cutter, less-capable competition.

Check out the results of our evaluation below to shape your New Haven driving experience.

The Subaru Outback versus the Volkswagen Tiguan

  • Outdoor enthusiasts beware -- the Tiguan comes with standard front-wheel drive. The Outback, however, is off-road ready with a standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system and 8.7 inches of ground clearance. The Tiguan may look sporty and ready for anything, but the Outback is the only wagon that delivers genuine athletic ability and all-terrain tenacity.
  • Get things going with a choice of engines, courtesy of Subaru. The Outback offers both a 2.5-liter four-cylinder boxer engine as well as a potent 2.4-liter turbocharged option that produces 260 horsepower and 277 pound-feet of torque. The latter seriously overpowers the Tiguan's only engine available, a measly turbo 2.0-liter that delivers 184 horsepower.
  • If you couldn't already tell from its powertrain, the Outback's priorities lie in safety-conscious fun. This point is further driven home by its standard roof rack rails with integral crossbars, as well as its standard LED brake lights -- two options that are not available with the Tiguan.
  • Overall, the Outback is a more accommodating vehicle thanks, in part, to its longer, wider, and lighter design. Its more generous dimensions lend themselves more ample front and rear legroom and headroom and max cargo volume than that of the Tiguan.
