This is the the end of the ’90s – a ride into a new century. Subaru understands the tough choices drivers have to make, and it’s made sure to add fun and versatility to smart vehicle purchases. The Subaru Outback offers better fuel economy than any leading midsize SUV. In 2002, Subaru put the new Baja on the road. All-Wheel Drive means all thrills are possible with the all new Baja which blends the ride, handling and amenities of a sports sedan with the ruggedness of a truck. 

Time moved into the unknown 2000s, outdoor fun was pushed to the limits. Subaru had just the car for this new era, the Outback – The World’s First Sport Utility Wagon. The Outback answered consumers’ calls for a “sport-ute” that could ride comfortably, too. While the industry averaged a 20-percent decrease in sales, Subaru sales shot up more than 20 percent.
