Exhilaration at every turn.
SUBARU DYNAMIC CHASSIS CONTROL CONCEPT
Legacy elevates the inherent advantages of its signature Subaru layout — balance,
composure and response — with the Subaru Dynamic Chassis Control Concept
(DC 3). The body uses high-tensile steel in critical areas to achieve high strength
and light weight. A highly rigid Cradle Mount front-end structure delivers an
accurate, natural steering feel while allowing the engine and suspension to be
effectively isolated from the cabin for a smoother, quieter ride. The result is
everything that makes driving a pleasure: confidence with comfort, sportiness
with safety, and elegance with efficiency — all in perfect balance.
FRONT SUSPENSION
Legacy’s strut type front suspension features a highly rigid Cradle Mount System,
a wide tread and long wheel travel. Together they deliver flatter cornering as well
as a quieter, more comfortable ride over a variety of road surfaces.
REAR SUSPENSION
Expertly balancing sporty handling with refinement, Legacy’s double wishbone
rear suspension handles rough roads and sharp corners with poise and precision.
To maximize stability and provide increased responsiveness, the suspension
features pillow ball bushings in the lower control arms. Tire contact is improved
while keeping unwanted vibration away from the passenger compartment.
