Subaru is best-known for its WRC-winning Impreza rally car, and its be-spoilered road-going counterparts, but the Legacy represents the other face of the brand.
Both engines are now mounted lower in the engine bay, making the drivetrain straighter and improving refinement, but also lowering the Legacy's centre of gravity to aid handling. Wider track (the distance between each pair of wheels) at both axles also helps cornering, reducing body roll and giving sharper turn-in.
