SUBARU S OUTBACK ONYX Review - NOT JUST A SMOKE AND MIRRORS MOOD CHANGER

The Subaru Outback Onyx Edition sport utility for 2020 has to be a blackout driver s dream. More than their preferred cruising at night with interior dash lights turned off so they don t contaminate the barely visible landscape outside, it announces its character at first glance.
Like the distinctive mineral rock that gives it its name, the Outback Onyx edition is a bit of an outsider. Consider the darkened feel – with strong touches of black cladding every visible element – from sultry dark shading on the 18 inch aluminum alloy wheels, mirrors in Crystal Black Silica, grille trim with a muscular black line differentiating it from run-of-the-mill everyone else s bright trim version, all on a Magnetite Gray Metallic body. This isn t a vehicle designed to fit in with the crowd. It s designed to make sure the crowd just gets out of its way without a word.
