We Help Nederland Drivers Decide between the Subaru Outback and Ford Edge
Here at JK Subaru, we know that Nederland drivers are hardly bereft of options when shopping for a safe, dependable, and family-focused crossover. However, your search for the best crossover will inevitably conclude with the Subaru Outback!
Whatever you're seeking from your next crossover, chances are you'll find that and more in the Outback. After all, the Outback possesses a spotless safety record, long-lasting dependability, and standard all-wheel drive, to name a few of its appealing qualities. The Outback also features a versatile, modern interior that's home to a bevy of the latest safety and connectivity features to better serve your driving needs. When matched with competitors like the Ford Edge, it's abundantly clear that the Outback is simply a better crossover from top to bottom, inside and out!
Power and Performance
Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive
Another of the Outback's many strong points is Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, a standard feature. Along with 8.3 inches of ground clearance, the AWD Outback displays deft handling and confidence-inspiring performance in all driving conditions. With AWD, the Outback is ready for anything, whether you're chasing off-road adventure or driving in adverse road conditions. Unfortunately, you'll have to pay considerably more money to equip the Ford Edge with all-wheel drive! Even with its system in place, the Ford Edge still won't offer the same off-road surefootedness that you'll enjoy at the wheel of the Outback.
Luckily for you, the Outback doesn't ask you to surrender fuel economy for the sake of power or all-wheel drive. With Subaru's Lineartronic CVT, the Outback achieves up to 33/26 mpg hwy/city, making it a Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle (PZEV). On the contrary, the front-wheel drive Edge can only muster 29/21 mpg hwy/city.
Advanced Safety Features
The Outback continues Subaru's tradition of providing vehicles that focus on your safety. As with every Subaru, the Outback is available with leading-edge safety features like Eyesight® Driver Assist Technology, reverse automatic braking, and blind-spot monitoring.
When so equipped, the Outback engages lane departure warning and forward collision warning to prevent collisions and assure your safety behind the wheel. The Subaru Outback earned an IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+ and a Superior rating in front crash prevention. On the other hand, the Ford Edge failed to achieve the same safety grade as the Outback. If safety is of utmost importance to you, then the Outback is a better choice than the Ford Edge.
Exterior and Interior
Despite its lower pricing, the Outback is comparably equipped to the Edge. The Outback now comes standard with integrated roof rails that make it easy for you to transport luggage, bikes, camping gear, and everything in-between. That comes in addition to the Outback's class-leading amount of cargo space. No similar feature is standard in the Edge.
The Outback also keeps you connected with the STARLINK® media hub that provides touchscreen access to your smartphone. Additional features include a Harman Kardon sound system, power rear liftgate, and Siri Eyes Free for iPhone users. The Outback also can equip an 11.6-inch touchscreen on its higher trim levels, a screen size that the Edge has no answer for!
Why Choose the Subaru Outback?
When it comes to off-road prowess, efficiency, top-of-the-line safety features, and an exterior and interior built for comfort and convenience, no model does it quite like the Subaru Outback. The Edge holds a slight lead with engine performance, but in every other aspect of car ownership, it takes second place to the Subaru Outback. From the standard all-wheel drive to the seamlessly integrated interior, the Subaru Outback was made to accommodate every walk of life!
