The 2024 Subaru Legacy is expected to come with a lot of improvements, considering that Subaru has their extensive lineups of fun and joyful models. This Legacy sedan has quite good performance although not overly impressive. It makes people wonder whether Subaru has their own plans for the upcoming Legacy. And if the company does have the plan, what would it be?
The Updated Plan
Despite its performance, you have to admit that Subaru Legacy sedan isn’t exactly an aesthetic ride. In fact, Subaru is the name that is often related to functions and usages instead of style and aesthetic. The Legacy is basically the direct example of a no-nonsense ride that comes with standard looks and features. The LED lighting is responsive to steering movement, 17 inch (alloy) wheels in black, and one exhaust outlet. If you are willing to spend more, you can enjoy LED fog lights, stainless steel exhaust tip, 18 inch (alloy) wheels, and also sliding (or tilt) glass moonroof.
The Interior Goodness
The interior cabin of the Legacy has always been known to be practical, and it’s likely going to continue for the 2024 Subaru Legacy. High quality materials will stay, even improved, with the newer models. If you go with the higher trim levels, such as Touring or Limited variants, you can expect leather seats. The interior has this plush ambiance with plush surroundings that make the entire experience fun. The sedan offers roomy space that can accommodate 5 adult passengers comfortably. Expect more features and high end technologies with the new updates.
Powertrain and Performance
The standard powertrain would be the four cylinder unit with 2.5 liter capacity, delivering 182 hp. All Legacy trim levels are coming with CVT. There are 2 engine options, including turbocharged unit with 2.4 liter capacity within Touring XT and Limited XT trim levels. This turbocharged unit would be 260 hp and 277 Nm of torque.
This kind of arrangement may not be able to deliver the punchy or smooth performance, but it should be more than enough to help you get going on a daily basis. It may not be an excessively fun and lively vehicle to handle, but the Legacy has its own function and usages.
The Price Ranges
Because of the possibility of some changes, the price of Legacy will likely increase from the current model. But the increase won’t be happening to all trims. Some trim levels may experience an increase, while the others won’t. The starting price starts from $23,000 excluding the shipping fee ($960) and handling tax. The Premium would be $25,300 while the Sport would be $29,000. The Limited XT would be $35,000 while the Touring XT would be $36,200. For the Limited, you can get a turbocharged unit.
Q and A
