Subaru Outback vs. Hyundai Tucson

Subaru Outback vs. Hyundai Tucson - Let's Compare these New SUVs

There's no substitute for a good SUV. That's why you're shopping at R & G Subaru. Subaru's lineup includes some of the market's most capable, reliable, and beloved SUVs. From passenger-focused features to performance equipment like standard all-wheel drive, new models like the Subaru Outback are designed to give you more.

Here's the thing, though. Subaru isn't the only brand out there building great SUVs. Other SUVs, like the Hyundai Tucson, also deliver impressive features and options that are well worth considering. The big question for drivers in Detroit Lakes, MN? Which new model is the right new model? Let's take a look at both and all the ways the Subaru Outback delivers more.

Performance

The Hyundai Tucson is a solidly capable model, with a standard 187-horsepower powertrain. To its credit, that actually beats the output of the Subaru Outback's standard configuration. New model Outback's start with a 180-horsepower engine.

That being said, the Tucson doesn't offer anything else beyond that. The Subaru Outback, by comparison, offers an optional, more powerful turbocharged powertrain producing up to 260 horsepower. All new Subaru Outback models also come with standard all-wheel drive. That's an optional upgrade on the Tucson.

Interior Space

Both the Subaru Outback and Hyundai Tucson are five-seat, two-row SUVs. The Subaru Outback, however, offers more headroom, legroom, and shoulder room. That comes on top of a rear cargo area that's bigger, overall, with the seats folded down.

It's not like the Hyundai Tucson is cramped or uncomfortable, but Callaway and Perham drivers will enjoy more space inside the Subaru Outback.

Features & Technology

The Subaru Outback hits the road with a 12.1-inch infotainment touchscreen, complete with standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a cloud-based voice recognition system. You'll also enjoy amenities like built-in navigation and more. The Hyundai Tucson has a slightly larger standard touchscreen, at 12.3 inches, but is otherwise equipped with a comparable set of media and connectivity features.

Safety

The Subaru Outback hits the road with Subaru's award-winning EyeSight safety suite. This advanced system uses dual cameras to add an extra set of eyes on the road and includes responsive assistance features such as forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control with lane-keeping assistance, and more.

The Hyundai Tucson also offers a solid set of safety features, including standard automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warnings, and lane-keeping assistance. Both SUVs are well-equipped to protect you and your passengers on the roads of Pelican Rapids.

Why is the Subaru Outback the Right SUV for Me?

With the exception of a few small touches here and there, the Subaru Outback is more capable, better-equipped, and more comfortable than the Hyundai Tucson. If you're looking for a rugged SUV with rich features, high ground clearance, and standard all-wheel drive, the Subaru Outback is the right new model for you.
