2011 SUBARU LEGACY:

The redefinition of the family sedan
Last year, the Subaru Legacy sedan received significant
changes, so this year is definitely more about evolution than
revolution. The fifth-generation Legacy sedan created a big
impression when it debuted last year, earning accolades from
the critics and third-party organizations alike. The Legacy
earned 5-star ratings2 in all NHTSA crash tests – frontal impact,
driver side, rear passenger side and rollover – the best
possible score for a passenger vehicle, plus a Top Safety Pick1
rating from the IIHS. World of Wheels magazine awarded the
Subaru Legacy with an Editor’s Choice rating in the family car
category. Finally, this formidable family sedan was also named
the Best Midsize Car by the Automotive Lease Guide for
having the highest predicted residual value.
Three versions of the Legacy remain available – the Legacy
2.5i, 2.5GT and 3.6R – and there are upgrade packages
and multimedia options in the mix as well, including a new
Convenience Package model that’s available with special
smog-fighting PZEV equipment.
The value-packed entry model comes equipped with such
amenities as heated front seats and an ECO gauge to monitor
fuel efficiency on the fly. All models receive new heated,
foldable power side mirrors, while the Convenience Package
adds Bluetooth connectivity, a 10-way power driver’s seat and
16-inch aluminum alloy wheels.
In other news, the Legacy 2.5GT gains fog lights, aluminum
alloy pedals and carbon fibre-look trim for a distinctly
sportier appearance. This image is reinforced by a spirited
turbocharged engine, a slick 6-speed manual transmission
and 18-inch wheels. The Legacy 3.6R features an ultra-smooth
6-cylinder SUBARU BOXER, a power sunroof, twin exhaust
and a 5-speed automatic transmission with Manual Mode
and blipping control.
For a healthy dose of performance, combined with
surefooted handling, handsome styling and surprising fuel
efficiency, there’s a 2011 Subaru Legacy just for you.
