Chronology
Predecessor Subaru Legacy (sixth generation)

The Subaru Legacy (BT) is the seventh generation of the Legacy range of mid-size cars, with the station wagon version the Subaru Outback (BW) being the sixth generation of the Legacy-based Outback range. It made its debut at the 2019 Chicago Auto Show on February 7, 2019[4] and went on sale in the third quarter of 2019. Unlike the previous generations, the seventh gen Legacy will not be sold in Japan and Australia due to disappointing sales for its predecessor.

History

Series production of the seventh generation Legacy and sixth generation Outback started in July 2019.[5] The first of each model was driven off the SIA production line in Lafayette, Indiana on July 29.[6]

The seventh generation Legacy was not marketed in Japan. Orders for the sixth generation Legacy were accepted through June 22, 2020 and production was discontinued after that.[7]

Design

The 2020 model year Legacy was moved to the Subaru Global Platform (SGP), which is torsionally stiffer compared to the previous generation Legacy. Its exterior styling is similar to the previous generation model, but the headlights and the taillights are slightly restyled. The interior now features an 11.6 inch touchscreen on all trims except the base model, which has two 7 inch displays.[8] Those screens are manufactured by Denso and shared with the Toyota Prius Prime.[9][10] There are two separate Denso processors, one drives the infotainment system while the other operates critical vehicle functions.[11]

Notable mechanical changes include an updated base engine, the FB25 now featuring direct injection, and a turbocharged 2.4 liter FA24 flat four engine from the Ascent for higher trim levels which replaces the outgoing 3.6 liter EZ36 flat six engine. 90% of the components in the new FB25 are new compared to its predecessor.[8]

In terms of safety, there is a new optional facial recognition system which uses cameras to warn the driver if the system detects that they are distracted or fatigued.[8]
