Get one of the most sensible sedans for a very sensible monthly payment
The Subaru Legacy is reaching the end of the road as the brand will soon end production of the all-wheel drive sedan. The roomy and capable Legacy can be credited with pioneering the all-wheel drive sedan class, and it has spanned 35 years and seven generations, providing families with four-season traction, excellent safety ratings, and great value. The 2025 Legacy ($25,210) comes in five trims: Base, Premium, Limited, Sport, and Touring XT. The two engine choices include a 180-horsepower 2.5-liter naturally-aspirated four-cylinder and a 260-hp turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder, both mated to a CVT. This month, Subaru is offering the Legacy with a great lease deal that makes it even more affordable than its already remarkably low base price.Â

2025 Subaru Legacy feature highlights
The 180-horsepower base engine of the Legacy Base won’t tear up the asphalt, but the ride is smooth and comfortable for hours on end. It also manages pavement imperfections quite well. The 0-60 mph sprint takes about 8 seconds, which isn’t especially quick, nor is it tepid. On top of that, it nets 30 mpg in combined driving, which isn’t bad for a non-hybrid family sedan. The standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system is capable, continuously sending power to all four wheels for a consistent and predictable driving experience.
The Legacy’s cabin is roomy and well-executed, with 39.5 inches of rear legroom, more than many of its competitors. It also provides 37.2 inches of rear headroom and 57.4 inches of rear shoulder room, ample for tall passengers. Cargo space is 15.1 cubic feet, the same as the popular Toyota Camry.Â
Standard equipment on the Legacy Base includes 17-inch alloy wheels with machine finish, steering-responsive LED headlights, paddle shifters, automatic climate control, a 7-inch touchscreen, tire pressure monitoring, and keyless entry. It also comes standard with Subaru’s robust EyeSight driver assist technology, which provides automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning with lane-keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control with lane-centering. The vehicle also earned a 5-star safety rating from the NHTSA.Â
Final thoughtsÂ
The 2025 Subaru Legacy is a tried and true midsize family sedan that’s affordable, safe, and provides all-wheel drive assurance. It successfully carries the Subaru name by providing great standard safety features, ample space, and solid tech for its five occupants. Whether it’s for daily commuting or long road trips, the Legacy is more than capable of traversing roadways, dirt trails, and city streets smoothly and comfortably. Despite the lack of a hybrid variant, the Legacy is efficient. Before signing the lease agreement, be aware of taxes and registration fees, coupled with the total amount due. Read the lease agreement carefully and inquire about potential additional costs at the dealership.Â
