Subaru Just Made the Legacy More Affordable This September


The Subaru Legacy is perhaps the most underappreciated executive sedan in the market today. Packing a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder Boxer engine (a 3.6-liter 6-cylinder is available) and standard all-wheel drive, it’s big, safe, and plush. It’s also quite spirited if you desire to push it to its limits. Well, now there’s another great reason to consider the Legacy and that has to do with savings. Lots of savings.

Review: 2015 Subaru Legacy 2.5i-S

Photos by Ulysses Ang
The removal of the turbo engine caused a collective gasp among Subaru Legacy enthusiasts and would-be buyers all over the country. That, along with Subaru’s decision to offer it solely as a sedan had everyone saying that they’d rather keep their BM9/BR9 (2009-2014) cars over the all-new BN9/BS9. But is all this commotion actually worthy fussing over? Has it really lost the edge?

First Drive: 2015 Subaru Legacy 2.5i-S and Outback 2.5i-S


No turbo? That’s inevitably the first question asked by everyone during the launch of the all-new 2015 Subaru Legacy and Outback in Bangkok. It’s also the one question that Mr. Masayuki Uchida, Senior Project General Manager for both products could easily answer. His response: a turbocharged engine is not in line with the Legacy or Outback’s character. He’s aiming for an executive sedan with a smooth, comfortable, confident, and above all, linear driving experience; a turbocharged engine simply cannot deliver the refinement he wants. Mr. Uchida should know what he’s talking about: the vastly experienced 55-year old has worked on the Legacy since the first-generation model in 1981. This effectively means he’s worked on Subaru’s flagship offering for about half his life.
