Used 2024 Subaru Outback for Sale nearOklahoma City, OK

How much does the 2024 Subaru Outback cost?

Prices have softened 5.93% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 6,521 listings available, which suggests you should have a solid range of choices.

Is the 2024 Subaru Outback a good car?

Yes — you’re looking at a 4.5/5 user-rated model with an expert rating of 7.83/10. The model scores 9/10 across Cost effectiveness and Safety.

The Outback’s appeal is strongest if you want a smaller vehicle that still gives you SUV-like ride height, visibility, and practicality. It also brings a spacious interior and a comfortable ride, while the broad trim spread lets you choose between a simpler, lower-cost version and a more upscale setup.

The main trade-offs are an underwhelming base engine and a dated infotainment system. Even so, the model’s 36.4% good-or-great deal share suggests there are still attractive opportunities in the market.

Is the 2024 Subaru Outback reliable?

Owners rate it 4.5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The Outback’s reliability case is helped by its standard all-wheel drive, strong safety ratings, and comfort-focused setup. Its powertrain lineup is straightforward, with a standard boxer engine and an available turbocharged version, which can make ownership feel familiar and predictable.

The model also benefits from a practical, proven formula rather than a highly complex one. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that a neglected example may show its age more quickly in the infotainment and base-engine experience than in core mechanical durability.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Subaru Outback?

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 91.1% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a vehicle history report and verify that the specific car’s equipment matches the trim you want. A pre-purchase inspection is especially useful if you’re considering a higher-mileage example or one with the turbo engine, since condition and maintenance history matter more than the badge alone.

Focus on how the cabin, infotainment, and drivetrain feel in real use, because those are the areas where the Outback’s strengths and weaknesses are easiest to notice.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: Base and Premium trims use cloth seats, while Onyx Edition and Wilderness get StarTex synthetic leather and Limited adds standard leather seating surfaces. Touring stands out with the most chrome exterior trim, a larger infotainment screen, and extra driver-focused equipment, while Wilderness gets unique exterior tweaks and a more rugged look.
• Powertrain: The standard 2.5-liter flat-four makes 182 horsepower and 176 lb-ft of torque, while XT models use a 2.4-liter turbocharged boxer four-cylinder with 260 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque. The turbo setup is the better fit if you want stronger acceleration and more confident towing.
• Safety package: EyeSight is standard and includes adaptive cruise control with lane-centering, automatic pre-collision braking, lane-keep assist, and automatic emergency steering. Blind-spot monitoring with lane-change assist and rear cross-traffic alert becomes standard on the Onyx Edition, and reverse automatic braking starts with the Onyx trim level.
• Infotainment: The base trim keeps the dual-7-inch-screen setup, while higher trims get the larger 11.6-inch portrait-oriented screen. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto start with Premium, and Wi-Fi capability comes on all but the base trim.
• Fuel efficiency: The base engine is EPA-rated at 26 mpg city, 32 highway, and 28 combined. The turbo engine is estimated at 22 mpg city, 29 highway, and 25 combined, while the Wilderness returns 21 city, 26 highway, and 23 combined.

Which 2024 Subaru Outback trim should I buy?

The 2024 Subaru Outback is offered in 6 trim levels: Base, Premium, Onyx Edition, Wilderness, Limited, and Touring.

Here's the short version:

• Base: This is the least expensive way into the Outback, but it’s also the most stripped-down, with cloth seats, the smaller dual-screen infotainment setup, USB-A only, and a four-speaker audio system. It makes sense if you want the Outback’s core ride height, standard all-wheel drive, and practicality at the lowest price.
• Premium: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Wi-Fi capability, USB-C connectivity, and a more modern-feeling tech setup without jumping too far up the price ladder. If you want the Outback’s everyday usability without the base trim’s compromises, this is the one to target.
• Onyx Edition: This is the first trim where the safety package meaningfully expands, since blind-spot monitoring with lane-change assist and rear cross-traffic alert become standard, and reverse automatic braking starts here too. It’s a smart pick if you want more confidence and a more distinctive look.
• Wilderness: This is the rugged choice, with the turbo engine standard, 9.2 inches of ground clearance, all-terrain tires, and dual-function X-Mode with Snow/Dirt and Deep Snow/Mud modes. Choose it if you want the most capability-oriented Outback.
• Limited: This trim adds a more upscale feel with standard leather seating surfaces and a more polished presentation. It’s a good fit if you want comfort and refinement without going all the way to the top.
• Touring: This is the most luxurious version, with the larger screen, the most chrome exterior trim, a CD player, a wide-angle camera, a digital rearview mirror, and a driver-attention monitor. Buy this if you want the most features and the most premium experience.

The safety package is standard across the lineup, but the Onyx Edition and Touring add meaningful extras that make them especially appealing.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Subaru Outback?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop patiently but still move quickly on the right listing.

• Deal availability: 36.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 6,521 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.93% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 91.1% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $28,470, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 Subaru Outback's resale value?

The current average of $28,857 sits slightly below last year's $30,676.

That softer pricing trend suggests the Outback is currently more buyer-friendly than it was a year ago. For a future seller, that means you may not see the same short-term appreciation that a tighter market can create, but you do benefit from a model that still has broad appeal.

Its practical shape, standard all-wheel drive, and strong safety reputation should help keep demand steady. Well-equipped trims with the turbo engine and stronger feature content are likely to hold interest better than a bare-bones example.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2024 Subaru Outback safe?

The 2024 Subaru Outback earned a Top Safety Pick award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gave it five stars overall.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

EyeSight is standard and includes adaptive cruise control with lane-centering, automatic pre-collision braking, lane-keep assist, and automatic emergency steering. Reverse automatic braking becomes standard starting with the Onyx trim level, and blind-spot monitoring with lane-change assist plus rear cross-traffic alert also become standard on the Onyx Edition.

Touring adds a wide-angle camera, a digital rearview mirror, and a driver-attention monitor. The main safety caveat is that the Outback’s IIHS result is Top Safety Pick rather than the higher Top Safety Pick+ designation it earned previously.

Should I buy a 2024 Subaru Outback or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 36.4% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 91.1% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.93% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It keeps the wagon-like shape, strong safety ratings, and broad trim spread.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $26,082, the 2023 costs less than the current year's $28,857 average.
• It offers a strong value proposition with standard all-wheel drive and useful updates.

Consider the 2025 if:

• At $32,099, the 2025 costs more than the current year's $28,857 average.
• It emphasizes the Outback’s distinctive wagon shape and practical, confidence-inspiring daily-driver strengths.

The bottom line: If you want the best balance of price, inventory, and feature content, the 2024 is the sweet spot. If your budget is tighter, the 2023 is the better value play, while the 2025 makes sense only if you specifically want the newer model-year pricing and are comfortable paying more.
