Subaru has announced that it will debut the 2018 Legacy sedan at the 2017 Chicago Auto Show on 9th February. The new Legacy features revised styling and significant upgrades to comfort, safety, and multimedia capability. In addition to major changes, a myriad of smaller engineering and design details throughout the 2018 Legacy enhance the driving experience. The 2018 Subaru Legacy will go on sale in the U.S.A this summer.
The 2018 Legacy, the roomiest sedan in the mid-sized segment, is available as a 2.5i model with an efficient and responsive 175bhp 2.5-litre four-cylinder Boxer engine or as the Legacy 3.6R with a 256bhp 3.6-litre six-cylinder Boxer engine. Both engines come teamed as standard with the Lineartronic CVT with manual mode and paddle shifters.
A retuned ECU for 2018 provides the CVT with more responsive and smoother acceleration. The 2.5i will be available in standard, Premium, and Sport trims; with a Limited offering a choice between the 2.5i and 3.6R engines. Subaru Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and Active Torque Vectoring are standard in all trims, making the Legacy the only mid-sized sedan to feature all-wheel drive as standard on all models.
