New 2026 Subaru Legacy Premium MSRP, Interior, Dimensions 

New 2026 Subaru Legacy Premium MSRP, Interior, Dimensions    – Much of what distinguishes a current Subaru from a modern Subaru is absent from the 2026 Legacy Premium, with the exception of the all-wheel drive system that comes standard. It is not possible to discover a boosted suspension on the family sedan that belonged to the brand. There will also be no wheel-well covering made of black plastic that you will notice. We would like to draw your attention to the Outback station wagon and the Forester SUV for those of you who are seeking for those particular attributes.

Individuals who favor the on-road appearance and have a fondness for the conventional sedan body design are the target audience for the Legacy Premium. In addition to its traditional design, the Legacy Premium includes a roomy cabin that is equipped with a multitude of safety and driver-assistance systems, as well as a wide range of connection options. Despite the fact that its practicality is not quite on par with that of its boxier brothers, it is comparable with other popular sedans such as the Honda Accord, the Hyundai Sonata, and the Toyota Camry.

New 2026 Subaru Legacy Premium Redesign and Update Plan

Exterior and Interior

Though the measurements may not show it, the Legacy Premium’s cabin feels much bigger than the last generation’s, particularly in the back. While its design is still on the dowdy side, the Legacy Premium’s interior is functional, with well-chosen materials throughout. Cloth upholstery is standard, but the high-end Limited and Touring models have leather. The front seats are well sculpted and comfortable, and the upper trims feature a manual thigh extension for the driver’s seat, a boon to long-legged buyers. The trunk is generously sized and held eight carry-on suitcases in our testing, one more than the Accord and two more than the Camry.

New 2026 Subaru Legacy Premium Specs

Base models use a version of Subaru’s Starlink infotainment system that features dual 7.0-inch displays. The one-rung-up Premium model has the company’s latest 11.6-inch vertically oriented infotainment display that looks as if it had been borrowed from a Volvo. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration come standard. And while in-dash navigation is only standard on the Limited XT and Touring XT models, it’s optional on all but the base Legacy Premium. A four-speaker stereo is standard, Premium and Sport models come with a six-speaker setup, and anything above that gets a 12-speaker Harman/Kardon audio system.  New 2026 Subaru Legacy Premium MSRP

Engine and Performance

A 2.5-liter horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine is standard and makes 182 horsepower. Limited XT and Touring XT models come with a 260-hp turbocharged 2.4-liter engine. All Legacy Premium models have all-wheel drive and a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). We’ve tested both engines now, and what a difference a turbo makes. The Touring XT managed to hit 60 mph in just 6.1 seconds while the non-turbo Sport required a lackluster 8.0 seconds. Regardless of which engine is under the hood, the new Legacy Premium boasts slightly improved handling dynamics over the last generation and a similarly compliant ride.

The non-turbo cars achieve higher fuel-economy estimates from the EPA—27 mpg city, 35 mpg highway, and 30 mpg combined—but the turbocharged models aren’t far behind at 24 mpg city, 32 mpg highway, and 27 mpg combined. In our real-world 200-mile highway fuel-economy tests, both powertrains delivered 34 mpg, 1 mpg short of the Accord 2.0T’s result. That said, the Subaru and Honda pale in comparison with the 2.5-liter-equipped Camry SE, which delivered an impressive 45 mpg.

The price of the 2026 Subaru Legacy Premium starts at $24,490 and goes up to $37,690 depending on the trim and options.
