Selecting the ideal vehicle for your North Texas lifestyle requires a balance of capability, comfort, and reliability. At Sewell Subaru of Dallas, we understand that we are in the customer service business, and we simply happen to sell vehicles. Our goal is to provide you with the information necessary to choose the Subaru that best serves your needs, whether you are navigating the Dallas North Tollway or embarking on a weekend retreat.
The 2026 Subaru Outback and the 2026 Subaru Crosstrek represent two of the most versatile options in our new Subaru inventory. While both models feature standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and the latest safety technology, they cater to different preferences regarding interior volume and performance.

Both vehicles utilize the legendary SUBARU BOXER® engine, which sits lower in the chassis to provide a more stable and responsive driving experience. The 2026 Outback is an excellent selection for those who desire more power, as it offers an available 260-horsepower turbocharged engine. This added strength is particularly beneficial if you intend to utilize the 3,500-pound maximum towing capacity for trailers or outdoor equipment.
The 2026 Crosstrek is favored by many Dallas drivers for its agility. It is easy to maneuver through the Park Cities and offers a new hybrid powertrain for those who prioritize fuel efficiency. While the Crosstrek is more compact, it maintains 8.7 inches of ground clearance, ensuring it is just as capable as the Outback when the pavement ends.
Space is often the deciding factor for our customers. The Subaru Outback provides a more expansive cabin with 80.5 cubic feet of maximum cargo space. It is a sophisticated choice for families who require additional rear-seat legroom and a larger trunk for groceries, sports gear, or luggage.
The Subaru Crosstrek offers 54.7 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats lowered. While it is smaller than the Outback, its dimensions are perfectly suited for urban environments where parking may be limited. Inside, you will find a cabin designed for durability, featuring high-quality materials that withstand the demands of an active lifestyle.
Your peace of mind is our priority. Every 2026 Outback and Crosstrek comes standard with Subaru EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology. This suite of safety features monitors traffic movement, optimizes cruise control, and warns you when you sway outside your lane.
Regarding connectivity, the Outback features a standard 12.1-inch touchscreen on all trims, providing seamless access to navigation and media. The Crosstrek offers a similar 11.6-inch interface on its higher trim levels, ensuring you remain connected while driving through University Park or Preston Hollow.
Selecting your next vehicle is a significant decision, and at Sewell Subaru of Dallas, we believe the experience should be as rewarding as the drive itself. Since 1911, our family-owned business has operated under a simple philosophy: we are in the customer service business, and we just happen to sell vehicles. When you choose our store on Lemmon Avenue, you become a Sewell customer for life. This commitment includes an array of complimentary benefits designed for your convenience, such as professional car washes for the duration of your ownership and the use of a loan car during service reservations. Furthermore, every new vehicle purchase includes the “Maintain the Love” complimentary maintenance program for your first year of ownership. We invite you to visit our meticulously designed showroom to speak with a dedicated associate and discover why generations of Texans have trusted Sewell to provide an unrivaled automotive experience.
Maximum 3,500-lb towing capacity applies only to Outback models with the 2.4L turbocharged engine and requires proper equipment. Subaru EyeSight® is a driver assist system, not a substitute for safe driving; effectiveness varies by conditions. Complimentary loaner vehicles and car washes are subject to availability. The ‘Maintain the Love’ program covers factory-scheduled maintenance for a limited time/mileage; exclusions apply. All vehicle specifications, features, and availability are subject to change without notice. Consult Sewell Subaru of Dallas and your owner’s manual for complete details.
