This is where wood-free composite earns its keep. A turbocharged Outback is rated to tow up to about 3,500 pounds, and LiV's lightest floorplans — shown above — come in under that, so you can tow a genuine hard-sided travel trailer with a comfortable bed and a real bathroom behind a crossover.

Note that the base four-cylinder Outback is rated lower (around 2,700 lbs), so check which engine you have and its exact rating. As always, factor in passengers, gear, and the trailer's loaded weight, not just its dry weight.

Questions

Good to know

Can a Subaru Outback tow a camper?

Yes — a turbo Outback is rated to tow up to about 3,500 lbs (the base engine is closer to 2,700). LiV's ultralight wood-free floorplans fit within that, so you can tow a real hard-sided travel trailer, not just a teardrop.

What's the lightest LiV travel trailer?

Our lightest floorplans start under 1,900 lbs dry, with a GVWR low enough to tow behind a crossover like the Outback. Each model card above lists its exact weights.
