Major changes included: The Outback has been upped in performance (horsepower ranges from 168-250) and added its Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, which is designed to optimize traction. Also, new safety technology has been added including standard front side impact air bags and side curtain air bags. The engine in the new Outback is now lower, which decreases the center of gravity allowing for a more comfortable ride and smooth, easy handling.
