Rugged and Athletic Exterior Styling
The Trailseeker stands tall and proud, channeling the beloved long-roof proportions of the iconic Outback while introducing bold EV design touches. Black lower-body cladding guards against flying gravel on unpaved roads, while integrated headlight and camera washers help keep your vision clear through mud and snow.
Functional aerodynamically sculpted body lines flow smoothly into a rear roof spoiler to maximize efficiency on open highways. Standard heavy-duty ladder-type roof rails allow you to mount bike racks, kayaks, or cargo boxes effortlessly, making weekend getaways effortless.
