When you are in the market for a new vehicle, it can be tough to figure out which model is right for you when there are so many on the market today that appear so similar on the surface. That is why doing comparisons can be so helpful, because it allows you to put two of those models up side by side to look at the details and decide which one will provide more of the features and capabilities that you are looking for. This comparison looks at the base models of the 2018 Buick Regal TourX vs 2018 Subaru Outback.
While the Outback has a lower starting price point and higher fuel economy estimates, the Regal TourX offers more in terms of convenience features, power, and safety features, making it the better option for consumers overall. The Regal TourX has standard safety features like knee protection airbags for the driver and front passenger, a keyless access system, proximity key and front fog lights. The Outback doesn't offer any of these features standard, and only has the front fog lights available as an upgrade on its base trim. Let's take a closer look at some of the key differences between these two models!
