3.6-liter 6-cylinder
A wealth of ultra-smooth power at the ready. That’s the
hallmark of the 3.6-liter 6-cylinder—the largest SUBARU
BOXER
®
engine available. It produces 256 horsepower
and 247 lb-ft of torque, moving the Legacy 3.6R models
with effortless confidence over the road. This commanding
engine is matched with the ease of a 5-speed automatic
transmission, featuring SPORTSHIFT
®
technology and
paddle shifters, which allow you to easily control shifting
for more direct access to engine power.
Turbocharged 2.5GT
For those of you who desire the kind of lift in your day
that only high performance can provide, the all-new
Legacy 2.5GT is more ready than ever to oblige. It features
an intercooler that’s 25% larger than last year’s—increasing
the power this engine puts to the pavement. You’ll now feel
the turbocharged punch of 265 horsepower and 258 lb-ft
of torque. And it’s designed to respond to throttle input
better than ever. A 6-speed manual transmission with new,
performance-oriented gearing keeps you always in control
of the action.
2.5-liter SUBARU BOXER
The all-new 2.5i offers more value than ever. This
4-cylinder engine generates 170 horsepower and
170 lb-ft of torque. Ample power for confident
driving. Especially considering that, when paired with
Lineartronic
CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission),
you can get 30 miles to the gallon
1
. With the 18.5-gallon
tank, you’ll spend more time enjoying your getaways
and less time filling up. What’s more, every mile will be
quieter and smoother than any previous Legacy.
Lineartronic
CVT
Experience smooth performance and save money
at the same time. Lineartronic
CVT is an innovative
technology that can reduce the amount you spend on
fuel. Now available on Legacy 2.5i models, it eliminates
the need to shift, thereby preserving momentum. And
your engine always stays in its optimal rev range for
maximum efficiency. In automatic mode, it infinitely
adjusts the transmission to match your needs. Or use
the paddle shifters and 6-speed manual mode for quick
access to power and torque on the fly.
