In the market for a new Subaru? Is a new Legacy possible? Then now might be the perfect time, because the automotive division of Fuji Heavy Industries has just announced how much it will cost to install a 2020 Legacy in your garage. Hint: not much. For starters, the Legacy will increase by just $200 by 2020. Considering the car comes standard these days, it's not that hard.

Subaru Legacy: all about the eyes

Every 2020 Subaru Legacy is equipped with the company's EyeSight Driver Assist technology and now features advanced adaptive cruise control with lane centering. On top of that, the EyeSight Assist monitor provides an on-screen display of all warnings and system statuses on the windshield. The headlights are now full LED and feature Subaru High Beam Assist. The Legacy comes in six models: Base, Premium, Sport, Limited, Limited XT and Touring XT.

The base tier starts at $22,745, which is quite reasonable. The base trim is equipped with a Starlink infotainment system with two chic 7-inch touchscreens (upper and lower) to control various vehicle functions. The multimedia system - that would be "radio" for high school folks - includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. SiriusXM and Travel Link subscriptions are also available. There are new Starlink apps and Clari-Fi music recovery.

Symmetrical all-wheel drive and torque vectoring

Naturally, even entry-level trim is standard with Subaru's symmetrical all-wheel drive and active torque vectoring systems. I find it funny to mention this. Doesn't every Subie come standard with all-wheel drive? I mean, that's why you buy a Subaru in the first place. Anyhoo Base trim gets a new version of the Boxer's 2.5-liter engine that cranks out 182 horsepower and 176 lb-ft. torque. The plant is connected to CVT Lineartronic while Auto Start-Stop helps improve fuel efficiency.
