The Subaru Legacy is a mid-size sedan that combines all-wheel-drive traction, comfortable refinement, and reliable performance in a versatile package. Its horizontally opposed “Boxer” engine layout and strong safety character distinguish it from typical family sedans. Because Subaru does not officially distribute the Legacy in Saudi Arabia, all examples in KSA enter via parallel imports. It appeals to buyers seeking comfort and capability without sacrificing year-round traction or ride stability.
Imported Legacy models in KSA include the Base, Premium, Limited, Sport, and Touring XT trims. The Base, Premium, Limited, and Sport trims are powered by a naturally aspirated 2.5‑litre Boxer four-cylinder engine producing approximately 167 horsepower and around 229 Nm of torque. These trims pair the engine with a Lineartronic CVT and standard symmetrical all-wheel drive.
Acceleration to 100 km/h takes around 9.2 seconds, and combined fuel consumption averages near 8.7 litres per 100 km. The Touring XT trim upgrades to a 3.6‑litre turbocharged Boxer engine generating roughly 260 horsepower and 350 Nm of torque. It uses a six-speed automatic transmission and an AWD system. Still, it delivers sharper performance with a 0–100 km/h time closer to 7.2 seconds while maintaining fuel economy of around 9.9 litres per 100 km.
The Base trim exhibits understated styling with body-colour bumpers, halogen headlights, and 17‑inch alloy wheels. The Premium adds LED headlights, a chrome grille insert, and fog lamps. Limited includes leather-trimmed mirrors, chrome accents around pulls and windows, and standard 18‑inch wheels.
The Sport trim builds upon Limited with blacked-out accents, red brake calipers, and a deeper front fascia for a more aggressive look. Touring XT enhances sport aesthetics with shark-fin antenna, sport bumpers, rear diffuser styling, and aero side skirts. All trims share a sedan silhouette with a sleek roofline and integrated rear spoiler on touring variants.
Inside, the Base trim offers cloth upholstery, a modest touchscreen media system, and analog gauges. Premium upgrades include dual-zone climate control, heated front seats, and steering-mounted audio controls. Limited adds leather seating, driver’s seat memory, power rear sunshade, and higher-quality trim materials.
The Sport variant combines leather with cloth inserts, blue contrast stitching, paddle shifters, and Sport mode dialogue on the instrument cluster. Touring XT builds on this with premium leather-faced sport seats, unique stitching, ambient lighting, a digital gauge cluster with turbo boost readout, and an upgraded multimedia screen with navigation and voice control. All trims offer generous rear seat space and a rear armrest with a pass-through.
All trims are equipped with Subaru’s Eyesight driver assist suite featuring adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, pre-collision braking, and throttle management. Stability and traction control, blind-spot detection (from Premium upward), rear cross-traffic alert, and rear parking sensors are included in higher trims. Touring XT adds high beam assist and rear-view camera as standard.
Infotainment systems support Apple CarPlay and Android Auto; Premium and above include steering-wheel controls and higher-spec audio. Safety ratings remain strong across all trims, and all models feature all-wheel-drive stability for various driving conditions.
Because Subaru does not officially operate in KSA, warranty and servicing depend entirely on import broker offerings. Typical coverage spans one to three years, but specifics vary. Owners should confirm access to service centres experienced with Subaru Boxer engines, CVT transmissions, and all-wheel drive systems. Parts support for turbo components in Touring XT and electronics diagnostics should be verified. Riyadh and Jeddah are most likely to provide workshops familiar with Subaru platforms and offer longer-term maintenance support.
In KSA’s parallel-import mid-size sedan segment, the Legacy competes against vehicles like the Toyota Camry, Kia K5 (Optima), and Honda Accord. Its advantage lies in standard all-wheel drive across the range and the availability of a turbocharged Touring XT model.
The Sport and Touring XT trims deliver sharper styling and performance than typical midsize sedans, while the Premium and Limited trims balance comfort, tech, and traction for family use. The Legacy’s AWD traction is particularly appealing in diverse driving conditions.
