Live from Detroit!: Subaru's Legacy continues

Did you know Subaru’s Legacy is celebrating its 20th birthday?

I didn’t. But it seems to be a good enough reason for the Japanese automaker to release a teaser for the production version of its midsize family sedan, and eventual wagon.

Underneath the pimp-my-ride styling of this Legacy (nudge-nudge, wink-wink) "concept," there are no surprises: Subaru’s Symmetrical All-Wheel drive system is mated to a horizontally opposed boxer six-cylinder engine.

Subaru says the new Legacy concept’s “four wheel arches emphasizes the reliability and dynamism of symmetrical AWD” and the grille incorporates a “wing motif” highlighting Subaru’s brand identity.

Expect a slightly toned down version to appear in Canadian Subaru showrooms later this year some time.
