Update.... I know this car is out there as used cars, but I would like to warn anyone thinking about buying. Since I posted the original "it's an OK car." the electronics have been a major problem. I had to fight with the dealer to have them even take the time to look at the issue with the sound system and it it's mind of it's own where it will blare with no provocation (which is bad when you are starting the car at 4AM) and the display unit that is so slow, molasses flows faster than the response from hitting a selection. That's when the display even decides to acknowledge the car is running and should be responding. The dealer finally got approval from Subaru (or so they said they were waiting for Subaru) to do a warranty replacement for the computer brains, not the display unit. They did that and it didn't help the issue with slowness and the blaring. I took the car back and nobody acknowledged there was still an issue. So, I figured it is what it is and realizing Subaru is no longer the quality product they once were.

Subaru Legacy 2020 Keeps failing

2020 Subaru Legacy Premium 4dr Sedan AWD (2.5L 4cyl CVT)

My car is at 88000 miles now which means I drive a lot mostly in highway. I've driven cars in US for about 34 years now and never had this many issues for a new vehicle. 1. I had to replace Windshield 3 times so far which makes last windshield is 4th one. All 4 times it was a small pebble and I wouldn't worry about that but it cracks next day morning. It just cracks as temperature changes. By the way, I am living in San Jose, CA which is not cold at all! 2. Thermal control value failed at 70000 miles or so I had to replace it. 3. Transmission is starting to go out at 75000. I have to replace it now which make me getting mad. 4. Touch screen is not working once in a while until ignition has to be turned off first and restart the car.

Love my Legacy Sport

2020 Subaru Legacy Sport 4dr Sedan AWD (2.5L 4cyl CVT)

Smooth ride, handles well, and once I realized you push and not punch the pedal on a CVT performance was fine. i was coming out of a Charger w/ hemi and knew my drag racing days where over but I have no problem passing or cruising at 80mph on the highway. Contrary to some reviews I get a lot good comments about how good the blackout looks on the Sport. Was hard trading in my charger but i needed a good AWD and I am very happy with my Sport.

Significant Subaru Legacy Improvement

2020 Subaru Legacy Touring XT 4dr Sedan AWD (2.4L 4cyl Turbo CVT)

I traded in my 2018 Subaru Legacy Limited sedan for the 2020 Legacy Touring XT. For 2020 Subaru moved to a Global Platform for several models. This 2020 model is so much better than the 2018 model. The ride has been greatly improved. It has Nappa Leather with a pull out extension for the drivers seat giving additional support for the legs. The 2.4 liter Turbo provides 260 HP as compared to the 4 Cyl 2.5 litre 182 HP. They've added a front camera, and power folding mirrors, and wireless phone charging. The safety equipment is also improved. On the 2018 model it had lane centering assist, so if you wandered to the edge of your lane it would steer you back into the lane. The 2020 Legacy XT provides lane centering when using the Cruise control. So this model will keep you centered in your lane. It is amazing. The exterior lights are LED and the headlights that turn when you turn. The biggest change is the screen for Nav and other features. It looks like an iPad. It has a start/stop feature that is far from smooth. when you stop at a red light the engine will shut off and when you release the brakes the engine restarts and shakes. Not a great feature. You can press a button on the screen to turn it off but you have to do it every time you restart the car. The front doors have puddle lamps when opened. There are front and rear heated seats. The front seats are also ventilated. My real world MPG on the highway is between 30 - 33. In the city the mpg is around 20 - 24. I replaced the dome light and the trunk light with LED's. The map lights in front are led. The CVT transmission somehow feels like a regular transmission. It has noticeable shifting patterns and you can manually shift the car with the paddle shifters on the steering wheel. This car looks like a luxury car on the inside and it rides and handle like one as well. It is a significant improvement over my former 2018 Legacy. I've had the car for about a year. The car has WiFi, in fact Subaru downloaded new software a couple days ago. It was done overnight while the car was parked in my garage.
