Used 2024 Subaru Outback for Sale nearSurrey, BC

How much does the 2024 Subaru Outback cost?

Prices have softened 13.62% compared to this time last year, making it a favourable time to shop this model year.

There are 408 listings available, which suggests you have a reasonable amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2024 Subaru Outback a good car?

Yes — you’re looking at a 4.5/5 model with an expert rating of 7.8/10. The model scores 9/10 across Cost effectiveness and Safety.

The Outback stands out because it stays true to the raised station wagon formula, giving you higher ride height and excellent visibility in a smaller, more practical package. That makes it a strong fit if you want SUV-like confidence without moving to a bulkier crossover.

The main trade-offs are an underwhelming base engine and a dated infotainment system. Even so, the broad trim range gives you room to choose between value and a more premium feel.

29.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which points to a decent amount of market flexibility.

Is the 2024 Subaru Outback reliable?

Owners rate it 4.5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The Outback’s standard all-wheel drive, strong safety credentials, and practical packaging all support its reputation as a dependable everyday vehicle. Its refreshed feature set also helps it feel current enough for used buyers who want a well-rounded all-weather option.

The base engine is described as underwhelming, but the turbocharged versions address that weakness if you want more confident performance. For used ownership, the main risk is choosing a trim that feels too lightly equipped or too slow for your needs.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Subaru Outback?

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: Convenience and Touring use cloth seats, while Onyx and Wilderness get StarTex synthetic leather and the Limited trims add standard leather seating surfaces. The Premier XT stands out with the most chrome, a larger infotainment screen, and a more upscale interior feel.
• Powertrain: The standard 2.5-litre flat-four makes 182 horsepower, while XT trims and the Wilderness use a 2.4-litre turbocharged boxer four-cylinder with 260 horsepower. The turbo setup is the better choice if you want stronger acceleration and more towing capacity.
• Safety package: The EyeSight suite is standard and includes adaptive cruise control with lane-centring, automatic pre-collision braking, and lane-keep assist. Touring adds automatic emergency steering, blind-spot monitoring with lane-change assist, and rear cross-traffic alert, while reverse automatic braking starts with Touring.
• Infotainment: Convenience keeps the dual-7-inch screen setup, while other trims move to an 11.6-inch portrait-oriented screen. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, wireless connectivity starts with Touring, and nearly every trim gets a 12-speaker Harman Kardon audio system.
• Fuel efficiency: The base engine is rated at 9.2 L/100 km city, 7.3 highway, and 8.3 combined. The turbo engine is rated at 10.6 city, 8.1 highway, and 9.5 combined, while the Wilderness is rated at 11.0 city, 9.0 highway, and 10.1 combined.

Which 2024 Subaru Outback trim should I buy?

The 2024 Subaru Outback is offered in 7 trim levels: Convenience, Touring, Onyx, Limited, Wilderness, Limited XT, and Premier XT.

Here's the short version:

• Convenience: This is the entry point, and it keeps costs down with cloth seats and the dual-7-inch screen setup, but it misses some of the nicer tech and comfort upgrades found higher up.
• Touring: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus important safety upgrades like automatic emergency steering and blind-spot monitoring.
• Onyx: Choose this if you want a darker, more rugged look and StarTex synthetic leather without jumping all the way to the turbo models.
• Limited: This is the more upscale non-turbo choice, with standard leather seating surfaces and a more premium feel for everyday use.
• Wilderness: This is the pick if you want the most off-pavement capability, with 24.1 centimetres of ground clearance, all-terrain tires, and dual-function X-Mode.
• Limited XT: This is the sweet spot if you want the stronger turbo engine with a more refined cabin than the Wilderness.
• Premier XT: This is the most luxurious choice, with the larger screen, premium audio, a CD player, and extra driver-monitoring tech.

Touring is the trim where the safety and convenience upgrades start to make the most sense for most buyers.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Subaru Outback?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 29.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 408 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 13.62% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $34,269 CAD, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 Subaru Outback's resale value?

The current average of $34,269 CAD sits slightly below last year's $39,671 CAD.

That softer pricing can be good news if you’re buying now, but it also means future sellers may face a more competitive market if prices stay under pressure. The Outback’s broad trim range and strong safety reputation should help support demand, especially for well-equipped versions. If you own one with desirable features and a clean history, you may still have an easier time attracting buyers than with a less distinctive crossover.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2024 Subaru Outback safe?

The 2024 Subaru Outback earned a Top Safety Pick award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gave it five stars overall.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

The EyeSight suite is standard, so you get adaptive cruise control with lane-centring, automatic pre-collision braking, and lane-keep assist on every trim. Subaru also added a wide-angle camera for 2024 to improve detection of cyclists and pedestrians.

One trim-level note matters here: automatic emergency steering starts with Touring, along with blind-spot monitoring with lane-change assist and rear cross-traffic alert. Reverse automatic braking also starts with Touring, while Premier XT adds a digital rearview mirror and a driver-attention monitor.

Should I buy a 2024 Subaru Outback or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 29.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 13.62% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It keeps the raised wagon shape, strong safety ratings, and a broad trim range.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $31,257 CAD, the 2023 costs less than the current year's $34,269 CAD average.
• It adds fresh styling plus new infotainment and safety technologies.

Consider the 2025 if:

• At $39,528 CAD, the 2025 costs more than the current year's $34,269 CAD average.
• It keeps the wagon-like design and adds practical value with standard all-wheel drive.

The bottom line: The 2024 is the best all-around choice if you want the current-year mix of value, safety, and trim variety. If your budget is tighter, the 2023 is the smarter price-first alternative, while the 2025 makes sense only if you want to spend more for a newer model-year option.
