Which SUV Comes Out on Top?

When it comes to selecting a rugged, family-friendly SUV with all-weather capability and everyday comfort, two standout options include the 2025 Subaru Outback and the 2025 Mazda CX-50. Both bring premium styling, modern technology, and powerful performance to the table, but the 2025 Subaru Outback at Colonial Subaru of Feasterville takes a clear lead with its standard all-wheel drive, turbocharged engine availability, and off-road enhancements. At our Subaru dealership in Feasterville-Trevose, PA, we are proud to showcase the 2025 Subaru Outback as the ultimate adventure-ready SUV for Pennsylvania drivers.

Rugged Style Meets Versatility

The 2025 Subaru Outback blends rugged practicality with refined design. Visit our Subaru dealership near Philadelphia, PA, to see standard exterior features such as LED headlights, 17-inch wheels, and a raised roof rack for gear and bikes. Moving up the trim ladder, the 2025 Subaru Outback adds heated folding mirrors, a hands-free power liftgate, skid plates, and Wilderness-exclusive accents for trail-friendly style.

The 2025 Subaru Outback interior seats five with generous legroom, soft cloth or leather upholstery, and cargo-friendly features like 60/40 split-folding rear seats and underfloor storage. Dual-zone climate control, heated seats, and optional ventilated front seats offer extra comfort, while the available auto-dimming rearview mirror, power front seats, and heated steering wheel elevate every trip.

The 2025 Mazda CX-50 also boasts sleek lines and a bold stance with available 20-inch wheels and LED lighting. However, the interior focuses more on aesthetics than functionality. With a lower roofline and slightly tighter cargo space, the 2025 Mazda CX-50 may look the part, but it can’t match the everyday utility of the 2025 Subaru Outback or available Outback Wilderness trim built specifically for off-road performance.

Powerful Engine Options That Match Your Lifestyle

Drivers at Colonial Subaru of Feasterville love having options, and the 2025 Outback delivers with two capable engines. Standard trims come with a 2.5-liter BOXER® engine making 182 horsepower and 176 lb-ft of torque. For those craving more excitement, the available turbocharged 2.4-liter engine ramps up to 260 horsepower and 277 lb-ft of torque, along with 3,500 pounds of towing capacity—perfect for camping gear, trailers, or boats.

Every 2025 Subaru Outback configuration at our Subaru dealership near Southampton, PA, features Subaru standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and a Lineartronic® CVT for confident handling in all weather. X-MODE® and Hill Descent Control are also included on most trims to enhance traction on tough terrain.

The 2025 Mazda CX-50 also offers two engines, including a standard 2.5-liter four-cylinder with 187 horsepower and an optional turbocharged variant producing up to 256 horsepower. While impressive, the 6-speed automatic transmission of the 2025 Mazda CX-50 feels less refined than the Subaru CVT, and all-wheel drive is standard but lacks the proven symmetrical system of the 2025 Subaru Outback at our Subaru dealership in Feasterville-Trevose, PA.

Confidence Through Safety

The Subaru reputation for safety is well earned, and the 2025 Outback continues that legacy with the EyeSight® Driver Assist Technology suite. Standard safety features include forward collision warnings, automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control with lane centering, and lane departure mitigation. Premium trims add blind-spot detection, rear cross-traffic alerts, evasive steering assist, and a 180-degree front-view camera.

The 2025 Subaru Outback at our Subaru dealership in Feasterville-Trevose, PA, also offers reverse automatic braking and a Smart Rear View Mirror to boost visibility when trailering or driving in low light.

The 2025 Mazda CX-50 includes many similar safety features such as radar cruise control, lane keep assist and smart brake support. However, some of its advanced safety systems like parking sensors and a surround view monitor are reserved for top-tier trims. Subaru offers more features standard across more models, giving families better value and protection from the start.

Seamless Connectivity and Premium Features

Drivers enjoy intuitive tech features and available upgrades that enhance every ride within the 2025 Subaru Outback interior. Dual 7-inch touchscreens come standard, while higher trims feature an 11.6-inch high-resolution touchscreen with built-in navigation. Apple CarPlay® and Android™ Auto come standard—wirelessly on premium trims—along with USB ports, Bluetooth® and a push-button start.

Optional upgrades at our Subaru dealership near Philadelphia, PA, include a 12-speaker Harman Kardon® audio system, wireless charging, a WiFi hotspot, and remote engine start. The Subaru Starlink® system* also offers access to safety services, maintenance alerts, and remote vehicle controls through your smartphone.

The 2025 Mazda CX-50 interior is outfitted with a 10.25-inch display, Alexa Built-In and smartphone integration. However, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android™ Auto are only available on upper-level trims. In addition, the Mazda interface can feel more complex, relying on a rotary controller instead of a fully touch-based system, which some drivers may find less user-friendly.
