Should I buy a 2022 Subaru Outback or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 31.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.77% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.75/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It adds the Wilderness formula: lifted stance, all-terrain tyres, skid plating, and X-Mode for tougher terrain.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $26,505 CAD, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $29,052 CAD average.
• It focuses on practical everyday usefulness, reliability, and low running costs.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $31,459 CAD, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $29,052 CAD average.
• It adds fresh styling, updated infotainment and safety tech, and the Onyx Edition.

The bottom line: If you want the most distinctive and adventure-ready Outback, the 2022 is the right target. If your priority is lower purchase price, the 2021 is the value play. If you want newer updates and can spend more, the 2023 is worth a look.
