The Outback 2.0D opens the range at a bargain-for-its-size-and-spec $35,470.

It comes with a 2.0-litre flat-four turbo diesel good for 110kW of power and 350Nm of torque, and is available with a six-speed manual gearbox or CVT automatic.

Standard spec includes 17-inch alloys, a six-speaker stereo with a 5.7-inch touchscreen, cloth trim, power windows and mirrors, dual-zone climate control, reversing camera, auto headlights and wipers, cruise control, daytime running lights, halogen headlights, cloth trim and full-size spare wheel.

Standard safety features include seven airbags (including driver's knee airbag), ABS, brake assist, stability and traction control, brake force distribution, three top-tether anchors and tow ISOFIX points. All this adds up to a maximum five star ANCAP safety rating.

Peter grew up in a house in Western Sydney where automotive passion extended to white Sigmas and Magnas. At school he discovered "those" magazines that weren't to be found in the house. Magazines that offered him the chance to sit in the driver's seat of cars he’d never even heard of let alone seen. His path to rebellion was set - he would love cars, know cars and want to write about cars, much to his family’s disgust. They wanted him to be a teacher. He bought a series of terrible cars and lusted after Ford Escort Cosworths, the Alfa Romeo 164 Q and occasionally kicked himself for selling his 1977 Alfa GTV. From 1.0-litre three cylinders to roaring V12s, Peter has driven them all and can't wait to tell you all about it.
