If you're looking for genuine all-weather abilities, tonnes of safety technology and lots of interior practicality, the Subaru Outback has plenty going for it. It's a sensible choice for private buyers thanks to its decent residual values and low insurance costs. It's not the most pleasant car to drive, though, and high emissions count against it as a company car choice.

The top-tier Touring is trimmed with fine nappa leather and has an 11-speaker Harman Kardon sound system.

This is the only engine option. It's a 167bhp 2.5-litre petrol which does the job, but there are much faster – and more economical – rivals out there.
