What Makes the 2023 Subaru Outback Onyx XT Special

Why Choose the Outback Onyx XT Edition

The new year calls for fresh beginnings, and the 2023 Subaru Outback is no exception. The Outback received an updated, bold look with the Onyx XT Edition. If you’re on the fence about the Outback’s trim levels, we’re here to share why the Onyx XT deserves special attention. 

Turbocharged Engine

The Onyx XT is one of two trim levels that holds a 2.4-liter turbocharged SUBARU BOXER® 4-cylinder with 260 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque. While the Wilderness and Onyx XT can pull up to 3,500 pounds, the XT can pull the weight while receiving better gas mileage at 30/23 (hwy/city) mpg and 26 combined mpg. 

Interior and Exterior Upgrades

Only the Onyx and the Onyx XT Editions received a gloss black 18-inch aluminum-alloy wheel, gracing the vehicle with a sophisticated style. Once inside, you’ll find water-repellent StarTex upholstery to protect your seats from spills and rain. Onyx owners can adjust the front seats in ten different ways, and the power sliding moonroof provides up to 95 percent UV light protection. 

Convenient Amenities

Before entering the SUV, customers can turn on the Onyx XT at the push of a button. And when your hands are juggling grocery bags, use the Hands-free Power Rear Gate to open, close, and lock your vehicle by simply touching a button. 

Optimized All-Wheel Drive

The standard dual-function X-MODE feature allows you to switch between snow and mud mode, holding traction and control of your SUV on slippery roads. The X-MODE also comes with Hill Descent Control to ensure the vehicle maintains a slower speed as you descend steep hills. Plus, the Onyx XT has a 9.5-inch ground clearance, giving you extra confidence as you travel off the path.
