Legacy through the years:

Introduced in 1990 as a small Japanese car, Legacy has grown in size and sophistication.  Through 2007, you could buy a Legacy sedan and a wagon, which got a little confusing since the more rugged Outback was also based on the Legacy platform.  (Making things even more confusing was the Outback Sedan, from 1997 through 2007).  Now, if you want a midsize sedan, you get the Legacy, and if you want a midsize wagon, you get the Outback. 

 
2023 Subaru Legacy Limited

2020 and newer
You would hardly know if from the sheetmetal, which bears similarities to the previous generation, but nearly every part on the car changed, including the chassis or "frame." Built on Subaru's Global Platform that now underpins most of its vehicles, this latest generation is much more crash-absortive and it rides like it's hewn from a single hunk of very strong metal. Infotainment screen goes big time and new features, such as Driver Focus, abound.
 

2023 Subaru Legacy Limited

2015 through 2019
Fifth generation increases slightly in size and now offers most room in its midsize sedan class.  Upscale interior abounds with technology and infotainment functions.  Airbag count rises to eight with the addition of seat cushion airbags that deploy from the flat part of the seat to hold front occupants in place during an accident.

2023 Subaru Legacy Limited

2010 through 2014

Sales skyrocketed with the introduction of a much larger Legacy, every bit as big as segment leaders Camry and Accord.  Continuously variable transmission debuts and fuel economy jumps.

  Eyesight appears in 2013. Optional six cylinder grows to 3.6 liters. 

2023 Subaru Legacy Limited

2005 through 2009

Subaru refines this generation further, with better fuel economy, smoother ride, six airbags (including side curtains) and optional goodies such as navigation and a race-me-chase-me turbocharged engine. The Legacy Wagon sings its swan song in 2007, and thereafter Legacy becomes synonymous only with "Sedan."


2023 Subaru Legacy Limited

2000 through 2004

Size remains the same, but Subaru irons out some goofy ergonomics from the last generation.  Larger 2.5 liter and side airbags become standard.  Styling and handling improve.


2023 Subaru Legacy Limited

1995 through 1999

The second generation arrived with more interior room, and a more appealing exterior.  All wheel drive became standard in 1996.


2023 Subaru Legacy Limited

1990 through 1994

Introduced with a small 2.2 liter

engine, you could order your Legacy in your choice of front wheel drive or all wheel drive, sedan or wagon.  But every one came with a boxy exterior and motorized seatbelts!

Will there be a 2023 Subaru Legacy?

The 2023 Subaru Legacy will offer mostly the same features as a 2022-model-year new Subaru Legacy for sale, but with plenty of upgrades. For example, the 2022 model came with available 10-way driver's seat power-adjustability; the 2023 model will provide an available 12-way driver's seat with four-way power lumbar.

Is Subaru Legacy Limited or premium better?

Our recommendation is to skip the $22,995 Legacy base model in favor of the Premium trim, which represents the best value. The Legacy is a 5-passenger sedan, riding on 17-inch steel wheels and powered by a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine delivering a just-adequate 182 horsepower.

Will the Subaru Legacy be discontinued?

While there were some questions and concerns over whether Subaru was discontinuing the Legacy, one of the most reliable midsize sedans, it's been fully confirmed that there will be a new model for next year. The 2023 Subaru Legacy receives a refresh after its full redesign for 2020.

Is it worth buying a Subaru Legacy?

Is the 2023 Subaru Legacy a Good Car? Yes, the 2023 Legacy is a fine option if you're shopping for a new midsize car. The Legacy has an airy and nicely trimmed interior, and it offers comfy seats, a decently sized trunk and loads of standard safety features, from adaptive headlights to adaptive cruise control.
