Performance

Under the hood, the new Legacy is powered by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 182 horsepower. It's mated to a continuously variable transmission (CVT), and all-wheel drive is standard. If you're looking for a Legacy that packs a little more punch, go for one of the XT trims. These models come equipped with a 260-horsepower, 2.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that provides plenty of get-up-and-go power, especially when you've got several people in the car.

Suspension tuning for the Legacy is geared more towards providing a comfortable ride rather than a jarring one. You'll find that it does exceptionally well over bumpy roads and pavement that aren't entirely even.

Standard features include LED headlights and taillights, and 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, the Legacy sedan has ample seating for up to five people. The driver has an unobstructed view in most directions, and the seats are comfortable for long periods.

Safety

Every model of the Subaru Legacy comes equipped with Subaru's EyeSight suite of active safety features, which includes lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, and more. Lane-keeping assist uses sensors to detect when the vehicle is veering out of its lane and will provide a corrective steering force to help keep the car in the lane.

Adaptive cruise control detects the speed and distance of the vehicle in front of you and automatically adjusts your speed to maintain a safe following distance. Last, the automatic emergency braking system senses objects in the car's path and automatically applies the brakes if a collision is imminent.

Optional safety features include blind spot detection, rear cross-traffic alert, driver attention monitoring, and reverse automatic emergency braking. With these safety features, the Legacy is undoubtedly one of the safest cars around Eau Claire, WI.
