Should I Buy the 2022 Subaru Legacy?
Standard all-wheel drive is a signature Legacy feature, but it also boasts good ride quality and interior space. Cabin materials quality and child-seat accommodations are also good. The CVT is noisy, however, and acceleration is sluggish when starting off. The beeping sounds from the EyeSight active-safety system can be excessive, too.
