Smoother performance. Greater efficiency. You can have both with
Lineartronic® CVT. This innovative transmission technology, now
available on the redesigned 2010 Outback and Legacy, has been engineered to
function perfectly with the SUBARU BOXER® engine and Subaru
Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive. What's more, its design is lightweight to help keep
the vehicle agile, and compact to make the interior more spacious.
The smooth-shifting 4-speed automatic transmission offers ease and
convenience, while providing reliable performance in varying conditions. And
with SPORTSHIFT® technology, you'll be able to take manual control of
the way the transmission shifts for times like when you're passing or climbing
hills, and you really need access to power.

SPORTSHIFT® technology gives you the power to get involved in action
whenever you need to by allowing you to manually control changes in
gears.
