The upcoming 2025 Subaru Legacy will be one of some sedan variants that may get a significant touch-up in the upcoming launch. The Legacy has existed for decades and has gained its own reputation as a reliable sedan with stylish look. Unfortunately, amongst the harsh competition of crossovers and SUVs (and also the fact that more people are in love with those models), the fact about Legacy’s realibility is somewhat forgotten. But it’s a good thing that the auto maker doesn’t let it slide and they decided to do something about it.
About the Legacy
Legacy is one of the most popular Subaru’s products, mostly because of its sedan styling. It was first introduced in 1990 and has been known as a vehicle that has some of the best combo: style, comfort, and reliability. The midsize sedan is believed to come at the right size. Plus, the stylish look and the super comfortable driving experience has made it a popular option among auto enthusiasts.
The current Legacy is the seventh gen, first launched in 2020. It has all the new features and design. In fact, it has all the right elements that even the American market welcomes it very dearly – and yet, they adore their crossovers, trucks, and SUVs so much! The sedan got new updates in 2023, again with new capabilities, features, and designs. That’s why the 2024 model Legacy was released as a carryover without any update or change.
The Updated Plan
However, rumor has it that Subaru is planning on making the eighth gen of Legacy, which would be the role of 2025 Subaru Legacy. If the rumor is true, then it’s highly likely that it will get major updates, especially in style and tech.
Some sources that the new Legacy will get newer aerodynamics and sleeker lines, which will look good when paired up with bold LED headlights and grille. As a result, the sedan will have a more aggressive look without compromising the modern flair. In the overall retrospect, expect the Legacy to have more significant front fascia with prominent (and exclusive) grille, along with redesigned fog lights and headlights, updated accents, and better stance.
The changes won’t be limited to the exterior area only as the inside cabin will also get some drastic upscaled touch-up. Aside from better and more premium materials, you can also expect more technologies and features. Legacy’s cabin has always been known for its plush and exclusive atmosphere, and it will remain the same. In fact, you can expect even more comfort and refined driving experience with the new Legacy.
Performance and Powertrain
Subaru has always been committed to engineering perfection and excellence, and the 2025 Subaru Legacy would be the perfect example to show it off. There is very limited information about the powertrain, but a new gas unit should be expected. Not only it’s expected to be punchier, but it can also deliver better fuel economy when compared to the previous models.
Rumor has it that Active Torque Vectoring and Symmetrical All Wheel Drive technology would be included as the standard features from the auto maker. Expect the new Legacy to have impressive performance and marvelous handling altogether.
Not to mention that there is always a possibility of hybrid unit, where Subaru may work together with Toyota for the new Legacy. Some sources also mention that Legacy may get inspiration from Crosstrek Hybrid unit, which affects not only the eco-friendly factor, but also the fuel efficiency of the sedan. If it’s true, this would be super exciting!
Release Date and Price
Again, information is very limited up to this point, but the price for the new Legacy is expected to start from around $25,000. The 2025 Subaru Legacy is probably scheduled for fall release in 2024, so stay tuned!
