Why it stands out
The 2021 Subaru Legacy impresses with its unique offering of standard all-wheel drive (AWD), a feature that distinguishes it from its midsize sedan competitors. Known for its reliable fuel efficiency, the base engine achieves an EPA-estimated 27 mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway, while the optional turbocharged variant still provides commendable fuel economy. Inside, the Legacy is designed for comfort, with spacious seating and high-quality materials, although some users note that fit-and-finish could be improved. The vehicle also boasts an exemplary safety profile, having earned top scores from both the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Moreover, the inclusion of advanced safety technologies, such as Subaru's EyeSight system, is a considerable draw for buyers looking for peace of mind on the road. The 2021 Legacy, while perhaps lacking in style compared to competitors, provides a balanced mix of practicality, safety, and performance that makes it a strong contender in its class.

I love the car. It use rain sensing windshield wipers. There should also be a way to turn off the rear seat belt chime when you have your pet in the car, otherwise the vehicle is absolutely perfect

Its a great value considering all of the safety features along with all wheel drive. The Legacy models with the exception of the XT Limited and Touring need to have more horse power. The Forester which has the same engine has much more torque.
