But where the Outback can really shine is its optional turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 260 horsepower with 277 pound-feet of torque. That engine is found with the Outback's higher trims, including its Wilderness Edition that provides extra ground clearance, special tires and equipment and more.
