I got the 2021 Outback and love it. I’ve owned other Outbacks and can vouch for the continuous AWD safety benefits. In rainy weather and when rain turns to ice in an instant, I don’t have to switch to AWD or 4-wheel drive - it’s already on. I feel that my family is safer in that car than any other I’ve driven and you can’t put a price on that, brother. I’ve driven that car in serious snow and it’s just insanely competent. Picked up my kid during a blizzard when she was stuck at a rural airport an hour away and that car did it like a trip to the damned beach. The Toyota looks awesome. I’m sure it’s great. And, yes, technology in a Subaru can be meh, but the Outback has completely earned my trust where it matters.
I own an Outback Limited 3.6R. I totally agree with you. It has saved me numerous times over the years.
I own a 2018 2.5 Outback. Efficient reliable gutless and most importantly safe
I have a 2012 2.5i Limited Outback. Totally agree. Even though it's ten years old now, which is crazy to think 2012 was ten years ago, it still handles everything phenomenally. It doesn't have the latest and greatest offroad features on newer Outbacks, but it still pulls through any type of snow or thunderstorm conditions. It is slow, but it's not dangerously slow and it can pass on highways and up mountains. Not that bad of a rig
The Subaru Ascent is a 3 row SUV and comes with the turbo charged engine. A way better direct comparison for the Highlander.
Nathan S obviously but I’m doing the best I can with what they give me and I explain that in the video.
I agree, next it will be the ascent compared to the RAV4
honda s2000 vs a range rover offroad challenge.
@@pierreg7459 That's very Funny man... 😂
@@Honestandtruth007 Subaru key are better but also highlander I much more powerful nice hosepowER and 3 rows
I own many SUVs and trucks over the years in Michigan and my 2016 outback is undoubtable the most responsive all wheel drive vehicle I ever own I the snow.
Where the Outback really shines is when you compare mid level trims. You get so much more in the Outback and no up-charge for the -all wheel drive. Also for anyone going off-road, there is no comparison to the Subaru and Xmode. I have had Toyota's and now have a 21 Outback as my first Subaru. I am single and just could not justify the extra cost for the Toyota. Subaru won for value in my comparison but they are both great vehicles. If you are in kid rearing mode, I would lean to the Toyota, more like a minivan. If you an empty nest and outdoors seeker, I would lean toward the Subaru. Great job in this review!
I agree, went with the 2021 Premium without the added options and I feel like what you pay for in terms of value is awesome. I do not have Remote start as I have to insert key to turn ignition but its not a deal breaker and plus the Subaru App has the remote start integration.
Tbh I think the better comparison is between the new Outback and new Toyota Venza that’s coming later this year which is actually a midsize suv. The Highlander is a three-row suv that competes with other larger suvs. The new Subaru Outback XT is a great car though and it’s quicker than the BRZ and even a WRX with the same CVT transmission. Also, the rear seat backs in the Outback can be reclined.
he's just coparing the cars he has available to him at the time. yes, it's not a direct comparison but still a good comparison for two cars that aren't so far off from each other.
I agree. These two aren't even close.
went and sat in a outback touring. LOVED IT!
The Subaru DOES have a wireless charger and the back seats do have adjustment for recline. I looked at both, for top trim I could not justify 10000.00 more for the Toyota when the third row was not really useful for more than a package shelf.
I know many people want you to compare Highlander vs Ascent, but this is the comparison I came looking for. I'm trading in my Outback soon and am considering the Highlander. So thank you for this comparison!
The prop rods are being moved from the rad support to the hood because hoods are shifting to aluminum vs steel. You could accidentally dent or damage your aluminum hood attaching a prop rod to it, you cannot damage the steel rad support attaching a prop rod to it.
in german car all works good
Outback has aluminium bonnet
Outback Limited owner for a month now, not quite this trim, but wasn't worth $2 grand more for a sunroof, their navigation (still got the big display w/o) & one more option I don't recall. Taken 2 road trips, 2nd one 2200+ miles in 6 days...soooo comfortable! Never sore back. All items he reviewed work as advertised...found most, probably some I'm still exploring as there are so many. 4 banger power does lack for high speed passing but plenty torque for hill climbing and averaged 32+ miles at 70-80 mph (limit is 80 in Utah!). Highlander may have some additional features & power, but out of my current price & I wanted the proven offroader as well.
Apple Car play or android Auto is a million times better than that Tom Tom navigation for that extra 2k package is not worth it.
One of the best side by side comparisons. I own a 07 Highlander and 11 outback. Both great cars.
Agree. Two great options, depending on whether someone prefer something that's closer to a car (Outback) or SUV (Highlander)
Recall magnets!
Very informative video. Thank you. By the way - perhaps just a coincidence, but I'm a current 2007 Highlander owner, possibly looking to upgrade to the 2021 Highlander. I've also been eyeing the Subaru Outback. I'm so glad these two are being compared! Thanks again!
We have a 2018 Highlander XLE. I will get the bench in the middle next time. 1. We are almost done with car seats (woot), and 2. with the 3rd row folded, items can shift and slide between the captains chairs. Note: I will not purchase another Highlander. I’m not happy overall with this one and just don’t like the interior of the 2020.
Jim Smith There is far too much lift on acceleration and dive when braking. It’s not real confidence inspiring during emergency maneuvers. It’s been reliable and fairly efficient, for a nearly 300hp V6. I have several vehicles on the replacement potential list. Everything from the sedans to S/CUVs. I like the Venza, Outback, and the facelifted Santa Fe that debuted yesterday. The Mazda6 and CX-9 (CX-5’s 2nd row is too small) are also on the list. The Highlander’s 3rd row was down 95% of the time, so no real reason for it.
@@macmichaelhenson-rogers9850 Honestly, the Venza would be my pick.
Toyota phoned in the 2020 Highlander...
Hi Dave, my wife has the 2020 outback limited.. she loves the car. Hers has the wireless charger in the front of the car. Good video as always
Went with the Outback - have owned 1997 Outback and 2004 Highlander previously. Originally wanted the Hybrid Highlander but found (1) Headrests on Highlander don't tilt, and were intolerably uncomfortable - ultimately killed the Highlander for us. (2) Harder to see over the Highlander hood - car just feels harder to handle for city driving. (3) Outback a much better value. Wish I had the better city driving mileage with the Highlander; highway mileage is close between the two. I find the cargo space of the new Outback to be at least equal to my old Highlander, though certainly less than the new Highlander. Kids are grown so don't need the 3rd row anymore.
We have a 2019 Forester. My wife hates the auto start/stop and shuts it off every time she gets in the car. There is a simple button on the left side of the dash. If she had to go through the steps of finding it in the infotainment system, it would be a no sale for her. Another reason we went with the Subaru is that we could get a CD player so yes, there are people that still listen to CDs. I don't have one in my Cherokee and hate having to transfer my CDs on to a flash drive to use in the car.
We had a Volkswagen van when growing up. No air conditioning, but fully ventilated with cross flow rust inlets. Times have changed.
I'm 6'2, 250#, currently drive a 2012 Prius plug in... Love the car, super reliable and cheap to run... But I'm getting tired of getting in and out of it... Wanting something with a bigger driver's seat area and a bit higher for easier entry and exit. My dad has had 2 Outbacks (currently a legacy, but misses his Outbacks), my step mom has an Outback... and they seem kinda perfect.. My brother has the new Highlander, and it's nice, too. This may seem like an odd comparison, but I found it useful. Thanks!
I'm on my third highlander and it happens to be a Hybrid Platinum. I will say that before I purchased it, I went back and forth with the Outback. It really was a difficult choice and I will undoubtedly check out a Subaru again when I decide to purchase a new vehicle.
Please do an off road test drive of the Outback using the X-mode and all that. Take it to the RV park where you took the Renegade.
Outback 2021 premium !! The best AWD. No complaints!! Can’t wait to overland mine.
I retired early but my wife still works.
We travel often and take our 120# chocolate lab with us often.
We’ve got plenty of room for our luggage and dog for our trips to ID or MT in our Outback.
It’s the perfect car for us.
It’s very comfortable and we always feel safe driving in all weather conditions.
I have a friend who owns an older Highlander and I never liked the third row, it shortened the storage area and I found the third row uncomfortable. The Outback has a nice storage area and the second row is nice enough for our needs. But that is the difference, your kids are small and they will have friends who you may need to tote around, we are past that stage (had a mini van at that stage) and as we are getting older I like the fact that the Outback is easier to load the roof racks and because it is lower it is also easier to wash. Yes, it is a bit smaller but for someone like me who has been driving large suv's and mini vans for the better part of 20 years I welcomed the come back to more of a sedan experience, no, it is not a sedan but it drives more like one and that is refreshing after all the suv's truck suspensions.
The Outback is a Legacy wagon with a raised suspention and AWD. I would really call it a crossover. The Highlander is more of a SUV.
There is no Legacy wagon these days.
Maybe from an appearance/seating position the highlander is an “SUV” -but the outback smokes the highlander off-road and in the snow. So I guess -what constitutes an SUV today?
@@matthewjohnson1211 Tall and boxy.
But the Outback doesn't handle like thr Legacy so it is a SUV!
@@lowlifeangler the Outback is a SUV and not a wagon as it doesn't handle like a Legacy it is based off of.
All these nanny features, but people still can’t use their turn signals.
I agree. What would be cool is a turn signal automatically goes on when you turn the steering wheel.
@@smallnuts2 most traffic laws require you to turn your indicator on before you turn. In some cases 30 ft before your turn. Autopilot would be the best
IMO
I would like a feature on modern cars to warn or correct the driver with electrical stimulation or insults regarding their apparent laziness 🤔
В точку)
@@rjscott810 Punishment will only make people angry.
The best reward in the form of money. How?
For example, all roads, parking is paid, but if you closely follow the turn signals, everything is free for you. And if you follow the rules, then the profit drips to your account.
Money at the expense of those who do not do the right thing. ( google translate)
Наказание только разозлит людей.
Лучшая награда в виде денег. Как?
Например, все дороги, парковка платная, но если внимательно следить за поворотниками, все для вас бесплатно. А если соблюдать правила, то прибыль капает на ваш счет.
Деньги за счет тех, кто не поступает правильно.
@@user-wl9cn5kw1e I was was joking about punishing the driver. I do wish people were more aware of the world around them. 😕
I shall go with the Highlander. We all know Toyota is more dependable! Great job Thank you
The turbocharged Outback for the easy win.
The Outback doesn't even come close to the Highlander. The Highlander will be on the road long after the Subaru engine falls apart. Also, the Subaru CVT is one of the absolute worst transmissions made.
@@__Paul__ the newer CVTs are actually very good and will last as long as a more traditional transmission. CVTs have been around almost 20 years, the idea that they are unreliable or don't last long is itself outdated.
@@__Paul__ I own a 2012 Outback with 151,000 miles. The CVT has been flawless.
Got it, you like the Highlander, but this is a apples to oranges, as many have stated below, the Subaru Ascent versus Highlander would be a better comparison. And you compared the base engine with less horse power and torque. When I was shopping for vehicles I compared the Rav 4 to the 2020 Outback and the 2020 Subaru Outback Onyx XT is what I have in my garage and very happy with it. I noticed you did not mention fuel mileage as that would have been a win for the Outback (with either engine vs. non hybrid). I could go on, but I feel you missed on a number of points basically nullifying the value of this comparison.
That brown leather is much nicer than that ash grey of the yota.
Digging to find the auto on/off button is an absolute deal breaker for me. These companies need to learn WE DONT WANT THIS
I realize they are in the same size class but a closer comparison would have been the Ascent Vs the Highlander. They are each companies flagship family SUV.
D Subie obviously but I’m doing the best I can with what they give me and I explain that in the video.
Everyman Driver And I appreciate it!!! Keep up the good work. Stay safe.
Subaru should be compared with the Rav-4. This is not a fair comparison . The Highlander is $10,000. more.
Kind of a strange comparison... I think you should compare the top trim Outback to the Platinum highlander. Given that comparison, I think the outback clearly wins out, given the price.
I have the 2020 Subaru Outback and love everything about it. However, I'd love to have the bird's eye view cameras, especially for tight spots/parking. I came from an '05 Honda CRV and wanted something durable with a great track record of dependability.
Just shell out 45 k
I am swing between CRV and Outback, could you give your insight? Thanks !
Love the sub drove one today!!
Lol just like with the BRZ & 86, the Highlander has the frown and the Outback has the smile (grille) 🤣
Every car has that
Thanks for the video. As I’ve said before you provide great resources for how the vehicle will actually function for a driver/family. One suggestion as it is something I always ask at the dealership: how does the 3rd row handle car seats? I agree you and your wife (and I own one) a vehicle with captains chairs along with a 3rd row. The captains chairs normally have the car seats, but when grand parents visit or I have additional kiddos (friends/family) I want to make sure the 3rd row can handle car seats well.
I love that you showcase the forward facing and rear facing seats.
Well done and looking forward to the next video!
Sorry I didn't see this untll now, but Consumer Reports and the IIHS have extensive info on this.
I appreciate this! Thank you ❤

Ya... I’ll take the outback anyway...over anything. Symmetrical AWD rules over any other type for me.
I am sure the Highlander can not match the Outback in the famous MOOSE TEST; and it is inferior off-road as well. I wonder if it handles better in spirited driving, or gas mileage ?? Please for a part two to clarify these concerns.
new AWD from Toyota is very good. And 8 automatic transmission good choice for off road and towning
Not true. The Highlander with the 8-AT performs much better off road. Also, the CVT of the Subaru will get totally destroyed by the engine when going off road, especially in shifting traction during articulations, as well as pulsation of slipping and grabbing in slippery situations. Nothing will toast a CVT faster, especially the CVTs in Subaru.
Dave, this is an apples to oranges comparison. You should have done the Subaru Ascent vs Toyota Highlander. The Outback competes with the Honda Passport, Toyota RAV4, and Honda CRV. The Highlander competes with the Honda Pilot, Kia Telluride, Hyundai Palisade, and Subaru Ascent.
A more correct compering would be Outback vs, RAV4 (buy price, size, and seats). If you want to compare Highlander use Ascent as they are in the same category. All been said, thanks for your video.
Yes, but you did listen to my introduction, yes?
This version of the Highlander has cool features and top it all a V6 engine
The 2021 Outback Premium has the Auto start stop as a favorite now so you can just toggle it off and on if you care.
Crazily enough, I’m actually trying to decide between the 2021 Highlander awd & the 2021 Outback right now. Have been test driving all week. Love the Highlander Platinum but also loving the Outback Limited XT or maybe even the Onyx. Fell in love with one in the showroom that was lifted & had a more rugged look. Only thing stopping me from buying the Outback today is there aren’t air vents in the back-back for our dog & to add the lift at Subaru costs an additional $5,500 (Unfortunately the showroom model already sold).
Wish i would just make up my mind already!
Which one did you go with?
Will you take either of these cars off-road? Would look forward to seeing the outback at ORV Park.
Thanks for the comparisons. I am trying to decide between these two vehicles but the top trim for the Subaru with turbo vs the hybrid of the highlander any comments would be appreciated as I am finding it hard. This video did helped though, anyway awesome and cheers.
I have the onyx xt with turbo ...it's sweet, great power and response and actually quicker than the Subaru WRX ( which my wife has) better gas mileage than the Highlander and cheaper
Классное сравнение. Спасибо! Мне очень пригодилось. Купил Субару! 😊
I LOVE the tan dash and interior colors in the Toyota !
We have to endure the Death Black interior plastics in our Outback, but at least the seats and other interior plastics are Warm Ivory. It’s too bad the carpets and dash doesn’t match the seats.
I like the Highlander but it’s a little too big for our needs.
We LOVE our Outback, but we wish Subaru offered a hybrid in both their Outback and Forester.
The hybrid system would give them more horsepower and performance.
Why didn’t you test the Outback with the turbo? Would have been closer to specs of the Highlander
2,4 turbo 260hp,nice Subaru....
I guess CVT s have their place. I just bought the new 2021 Toyota Venza. CVT. Also AWD and Hybrid. Enjoy driving it. Don’t notice any difference in driving.
Great review
The Highlander has much more refinement, much higher quality, and it being Toyota, much higher reliability. The ride quality, interior, infotainment of the Highlander just blows the Outback out of the water. It is not even a fair contest, but even the Ascent wouldn't be any better. The Highlander is much higher quality build, much better engine, and much better transmission.
Especially in 2017/2018 ;-) Wink-wink
*Purposely swipes off the page with the radio button*. "Now how do I get back to the radio...push here....push here...swipe back...push radio button...see it took me awhile to find the radio and I had to dig to find it". *facepalm*
I believe the Outback is classified as a Station Wagon ! Why are you saying it's a SUV ?
Both of these are crossovers.
Station Utility Vehicle lol
Well done, very informative
Interesting the price difference. In New Zealand the base Highlander is $16,000 more and the top model between the two is $18,000 more. On price the Subaru is much cheaper. Closer to RAV4 price.
Interesting.
I didn’t see a fuel economy numbers??
why compare the 295hp Toyota with the 182hp Suburu? They make a 265HP version... makes no sense..
Hi Everyman. Thank you so much for the video. I wanted to ask you what your impression of the Napa Leather seats in the outback. I have a bad back and I need all the comfort that I can find and I was just curious. Also, do you like the brown color. I wish that they had Napa in Black. Thank for a response. Love your work.
I have had the 2021 outback with Napa Leather seats for 2 months now. WORST DECISION EVER!! I Just got rid of my 2011 outback and these seats are way worse than my 10 year old car!! Even my 14 year old's lower back hurts horribly after a couple hours!! I am currently sitting on pillows both below and behind me so that I can travel in it. I touched base with the dealership today to either have them buy it back or buy different seats to install into it. I was debating about trading it in for a highlander depending on how the seats feel.
How about security ? Will it still be there in the morning ?.....J
I'm the outdoors type, So it's going to have to be the Scoobie!
The fact that the both cars have a prop rod and my 2020 Camry has hydraulic props confuses me
This would probably have been a better comparison between the Highlander and the Subaru Ascent.
Subaru Outback for sure!
Great comparison! I love the way you review cars. I can watch your channel all day. I'm gonna trade in my 18 xt forester for 2021 version. I totally convinced with forester. I love it But I'm considering hybrid highlander and I dislike a ton of things from highlander.
Very simple comparison, one is big and the other is small . Lol
Agree! LOL!
Bring you kid to work day... lovely!
You failed to mention the backseats in the outback recline
Subaru Ascent for the WiN !
I’d imagine the prop rod location is an engineering decision. The location is not good, if you open your hood with your right hand and use your left to pull the prop rod down and accidentally lose grip of the rod it’ll fall directly to the fender and hit it. Thankfully the bottom of the rod has plastic on it but I could see this denting a car.
With auto start/stop, when the vehicle is stopped, does the HVAC still work and for how long?
I have 2020 Outback and the HVAC still operates but does start to warm up. The climate control monitors the temperature and as it gets warmer the engine will restart. It depends on how warm the outside temperature is. If it's 90 degrees outside the engine should remain on. If it's 70 degrees outside the engine should stop for 15 to 30 seconds.
On my 2020 outback, the start stop button moved when the dealer did an update?
Your calves are ripped bro.
I purchased the 2020 Highlander... the car is like a wind tunnel when it comes to road noise, the worst car I have ever had! I regret buying it. I can actually see the flaws in the design causing the issue. Not an easy fix. Would not recommend it,
Has it noisy cabin? Which car do you compare?
point4894 I change cars every 2-3 years and I rent about 15 cars a year, so many cars. Including my last 2 Highlanders.
Everyman as the hood rod I don't know when but prefer the shock system raise the hood and it stays no rod help Isay the Toyota for looks and the Subaru for my needs never been much on 3 rows.
Outback better (su salyga ,kad as ne amerikons)
I like the Subaru Outback better
All Subaru outback has to do is get rid of the CVT engine
Do you mean the CVT transmission?
If so, agreed!
Highlander is simply better, more features, bigger more reliable engine, hence why it’s more expensive
Doesn't the Bonnet (hood) arm fit in two positions, low and high (upright) for engine maintenance?
Yes it does.
I’m looking for a dad car without having a dad car. I think the outback would be a good fit for me from my Jeep Wrangler 2 door 2013
Uuuhhmmm... these vehicles are $10,000 apart. Hardly a fair comparison, and also not withstanding that they are not even in the same category. A Subaru Ascent should be the comparison vehicle
If you can afford the Highlander, get the Highlander! I don't know how it compares to the Subaru Ascend though.
Wilberto Nunez The Highlander is best in class by far unless you go off road. If you off road get the 4Runner. I’d stay away from the Korean SUVs and Subaru if you are concerned about long term durability.
The Highlander is two row SUV with a fake seat in the third row. The Kia Telluride wins the 3rd seating contest, even over the Subaru Ascent.
The autback is a great car
So If I want to camp and sleep in back, I am 6'1". All I know is cubic feet and not the relevant number which is : what is the measurment in inches of the rear space from rear to front. Cubic feet is like purchasing shoes based on volume and not how long they are.
go Highlander, if you can then :-) I think it is longer then the OB and definitely wider.
I'm 6'2 and I camp in the back out of my
21 outback touringXT, it's great. Sorry for the late reply
@@TangoDeathClaw I'm also 6'1" and wondered if i would fit. Is that lying straight with the driver seat all the way forward and the 2nd row foot well (gap) filled up? I went to the UK Subaru dealers the other day and the 2021 Field model looked great (similar to the blacked out onyx US version) But i didn't want to climb in the back as the showroom model had been purchased.
@@JamesWilliam70 nope. I'm able to lay diagonally with my driver seat and front passenger seat up in their position they'd normally be in for driving conditions. I have yet to feel the need to move it up/bring it down. Again for reference for those reading, I'm 6'2
@@TangoDeathClaw Thanks, should be perfect on my own and ok with the lady with a few minor adjustments then.
I own a 3.6 Subaru outback and it’s awesome it is all the bells and whistles I also drove a Highlander on holiday down the south Island they are both beautiful cars as well but I like the all wheel drive the Subaru and so much more power not turbo not cvt it’s the last of the 2014 3.6 without CVT . You get a lot of features for money with the 3.6 outback
The Regal TourX offers more for less like 295 lb-ft of torque and torque vectoring AWD.
ayyeee, welcome back dave
I think this is not a proofreader comparison. To be compared with Subaru Ascent.
I just dont understand why anyone would choose a black interior when doing a video. You cant see anything
2:00 Don't know but I think it's stupid. For a car that asks for around $40K and they still give you a prop rod?!?
Especially when the last 2 generations had dual strut lifts for the hood. I think they just cheapened out. Not a dealer breaker by any means, just frustrating.
Toyota is the best car Brand in the world
I wish If they would kept v6 hybrid
Agreed. It would have been much better, but everyone is going after the very best gas mileage, and at the expense of other areas. In any case, just go with the V6 gas engine. It is way better anyway. With a gas price of about $2.75, you are going to pay about $7.50 more "per tank" (read: by refill rate), over the hybrid. The savings is nowhere near enough. The hybrid is way more expensive no matter the scenario. There just isn't a wide enough gap in gas efficiency to make the hybrid worthwhile, at least in the Highlander or "Hy-Hi" as it is also called.
Who uses a CD player anymore ? Someone who doesn't like compressed mp3 audio quality that society has now been conditioned to hear. Love my '16 Forester for that. and the '21 models still have them too.
Amen
Your calves wins the prize!
Now compare a Honda HRV to the Toyota Sequoia. Makes about as much sense as this. \/
Clayton Duguay obviously but I’m doing the best I can with what they give me and I explain that in the video.
Really? I guess he can do that for you if he had both at the same time.
😆😆😆😆😆😆
Highlander for me. I really hate the CVT
Toyota to expensive ?? Toyota is Not worth the 5 or 10 Thousand dollars difference !!! I'll keep the 10,000 dollars and get the SUBIE !!!
Sybary my pipe dream!
Seems like there’s no comparison- Outback.
