The 2020 Legacy offers world-class safety thanks to its Subaru Global Platform underpinnings and is powered by the choice of new engines that offer varying levels of performance while placing an emphasis on efficiency. The first, a 2.5-litre SUBARU BOXER engine, has been virtually entirely overhauled with 90 per cent new parts, as well as direct injection and auto start/stop for efficient operation and reduced emissions. The new 2.5-litre engine produces 182 horsepower and 176 lb.-ft. of torque.

For those in need of additional performance, the 2020 Legacy also offers an available turbocharged 2.4-litre SUBARU BOXER that produces 260 horsepower and 277 lb.-ft. of torque.

Serious About Safety

For increased safety and peace of mind, Subaru’s EyeSight safety suite, which includes features like adaptive cruise control, lane departure and sway warning, lane-keep assist, lead vehicle start alert and more, is standard on all Legacy models.

This latest generation of EyeSight also introduces Lane Centring Assist — a new lane-centring function integrated into the car’s adaptive cruise control system and the DriverFocus Distraction Mitigation System. This award-winning system uses facial recognition software to identify signs of driver fatigue or driver distraction and works alongside Subaru’s EyeSight driver-assist suite to reduce the likelihood of a collision.

Subaru STARLINK Connected Services

Placing a further emphasis on safety and convenience is the introduction for the first time in Canada of Subaru STARLINK Connected Services. Integrated directly into the vehicle, the system uses voice-response technology with the addition of live assistance for features such as Advanced Automatic Collision Notification in the event of a collision, SOS Emergency Assistance, Enhanced Roadside Assistance and Concierge Service.
