Subaru Of America Achieves Milestone With Three-Millionth Outback Sale
Subaru of America, Inc. has reached a significant milestone with the sale of its three-millionth Outback SUV in the U.S. The Outback, celebrated for its safety, reliability, and value, remains one of Subaru’s top-selling models. Introduced in 1995 as the "World’s First Sport Utility Wagon," it quickly became a favourite among outdoor enthusiasts.
The landmark sale occurred at Subaru of Jacksonville in Florida, where David Jett, a four-time Subaru owner, purchased the vehicle. Jett was welcomed by Phil Porter Jr., general manager of Subaru of Jacksonville, along with his staff and representatives from Subaru of America.
Phil Porter Jr. expressed his excitement: "We were honoured to sell the three-millionth Subaru Outback to our long-time customer, David Jett. It’s a testament to our customers’ brand loyalty and the enduring appeal of a vehicle that truly embodies adventure, reliability, and safety!"
The first-generation Outback stood out with its two-tone paint, white-letter tires, large fog-lights, and raised roof. Featuring a 2.5-litre BOXER engine and symmetrical all-wheel drive, it offered 7.5 inches of ground clearance, making it ideal for off-road adventures.
Over its 30-year production run, the Outback has garnered numerous awards. It has been an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) TOP SAFETY PICK for 16 consecutive years (2009-2024). Impressively, 97 percent of Outbacks sold in the last decade are still on the road today.
Troy Poston, Senior Vice President of Sales at Subaru of America, noted: "The Subaru Outback put Subaru on the map in the United States and continues to be a sales leader today. Led by the Outback as our top seller this month, we have achieved 22 consecutive months of yearly month-over-month sales growth in the United States."
