Replying to: xwesx (Jan 29, 2009 10:22 am) They need to move the rear seat back 3" or so, then box off the rear so no cargo space is lost. It worked for the Forester. January sales were DOUBLE vs. 2008 in the middle of the 2nd Great Depression. I don't think the Exiga will be our Outback because it's too narrow. It's basically a stretched Forester, so it would be forced to compete with the Mazda5 and Kia Rondo in a lower price class. The Outback should be Tribeca sized. Then make the Tribeca about the size of a Pilot or Outlook.

for the Outback to remain a wagon - a segment where it has little competition, and basically NONE in its price range - than puff up and become just one more among hundreds of midsize crossovers on the market, with nothing to distinguish most of them. Just one opinion. Being a wagon is what has always made it unique.

Many others might do the same. While I don't need anything larger than the Forester, OTOH those with several children may require more room for car seats that fit in the middle of the back seat, toys and dogs.

the new legacy will be wider and have the seats up off the floor and the firewall further away from the front passengers... oh and have more interior lighting and small storage area... should I stop now or keep going? It doesn't need to be bigger (just a couple inches wider)... just have better interior layout. I also have a 2000 Volvo that is virtually the same size as my 2005 OB, but way ahead in terms of passenger space / comfort. Hopefully Subaru has hired some experts in this area instead of using the same people who design the engines to design the passenger compartment. |
