Fine Balance Of Luxury And Performance

Following a complete redesign in 2010, the Subaru Legacy returns for 2011 with few changes. Biggest among them is that in the middle of the range, the 2.5GT Premium has been dropped. With a modest bump in price, that car has gained several standard features, such as a moonroof, fog lights, satellite radio and various interior appearance enhancements.

Subaru has long been known for standard all-wheel drive in all of its models. The Legacy brings Subaru's reputation for safety and reliability to a stylish mid-size sedan capable of surprising performance. MSRP starts at just under $20,000, and estimated mileage performance across all trims is 18 mpg city and 25 mpg highway.
