2027 Subaru Outback Colors: Full List & Guide – The 2027 Subaru Outback arrives as a near-carryover of the fully redesigned 2026 model, the seventh-generation vehicle that shifted the Outback toward a boxier, more traditional midsize SUV stance while retaining its legendary Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, ground clearance, and adventure-ready character. For U.S. buyers, exterior color choices remain a key decision point when ordering or shopping local inventory. Official sources and major automotive outlets confirm no major palette changes are expected for 2027, so the available paints mirror the 2026 lineup introduced with the redesign.
Overview of 2027 Subaru Outback Exterior Colors
Subaru offers nine exterior colors for the current-generation Outback. Two of these—Deep Emerald Green Pearl and River Rock Pearl—are premium finishes that carry an additional charge (typically $395 MSRP based on 2026 pricing). Availability varies by trim, with Geyser Blue reserved primarily for the off-road-focused Wilderness model. These colors complement the taller, more upright body, body cladding, roof rails, and distinctive lighting signature introduced for 2026.
Complete List of Available Exterior Colors
The full palette for the 2027 Subaru Outback (based on the confirmed 2026 offerings expected to carry over) includes:
- Crystal White Pearl — Clean, versatile, and popular for its bright, modern look.
- Ice Silver Metallic — Cool metallic silver that highlights the vehicle’s lines and cladding.
- Magnetite Gray Metallic — Sophisticated dark gray that pairs well with black accents.

Popular Color Choices and Buying Tips for U.S. Buyers
Crystal White Pearl, Crystal Black Silica, and Magnetite Gray Metallic remain strong volume sellers for their resale friendliness and everyday practicality. Deep Emerald Green Pearl has drawn particular attention for how well it suits the new generation’s more substantial, SUV-like proportions. Geyser Blue suits buyers prioritizing the Wilderness’s copper accents and off-road styling.
When shopping in the USA:
- Use the official Subaru Build & Price configurator for real-time availability and pricing.
- Check local dealer inventory early, as popular colors and the Wilderness can have longer wait times.
- Factor in the modest destination fee increase noted for 2027 models and any premium paint surcharge.
- View colors in person under different lighting—pearl and metallic finishes shift noticeably outdoors versus showroom conditions.
- Consider long-term ownership: neutral tones often hold value well, while distinctive greens and blues can appeal strongly in certain markets.
The 2027 Outback continues the momentum of the 2026 redesign with no significant exterior or color changes expected, according to sources including MotorTrend and dealer previews. This stability lets buyers focus on trim, powertrain (the 2.5-liter or available turbo 2.4-liter), and the exact shade that best matches their lifestyle—whether daily commuting, road trips, or light off-roading.
