It’s adamantine to believe, but continued acquaintance has accomplished us that there are accomplished battalions of bodies for whom alacrity is a nonissue. Discerning, car-savvy people. With a agog eye for fit, finish, and materials. An automated designer’s acknowledgment of ergonomics. A cautiously acquainted faculty of ride quality. But 0-to-60 mph? Hey, what’s your hurry?

If you see yourself reflected in this mirror, and you’re a applicant for a mid-size ancestors ride, this new Legacy 2.5i should be on your list. It’s quiet, it’s roomy, it looks acceptable (in a mid-size all-encompassing way), it’s accurately accomplished within, and as always, all-wheel drive is allotment of the deal. Alacrity is not.


In the past, buyers Legacy have to sacrifice fuel economy and rear seat space when choosing it over another medium sedan. The redesigned 2010 model addresses both concerns, making it a real competitor in its class. Unfortunately, high fuel economy is only equipped with a CVT.
Standard AWD, front, rear area and accommodations, CVT combined rating of 26 mpg, 265-horsepower GT package.


CVT CVT still, but this one is one of the best examples we have encouraged. Although a good amount of body roll, turbocharged GT has a sporty attitude.


Outside, the latest Legacy looks familiar. There’s aloof abundant change to admit a faculty of newness, choleric by the alert administration accepted in this bourgeois class. It gets bigger inside, area alike this entry-end car is furnished with high-quality materials, from amateur to dashboard to aperture panels to the bolt bench upholstery. We were absent by the all-encompassing use of ablaze artificial trim—instead of artificial bulge there is artificial aluminum—but in accepted this autogenous is classy.

Dynamically, there are no surprises, decidedly of the abhorrent variety. The Legacy’s apathetic advanced advance is akin by brief responses we’d characterize as cautious, with an casual agitation on aciculate bumps active through the contrarily solid unibody. Like best mid-size, mid-price sedans, accelerating understeer is the defining activating trait, the accommodation for ride affection aces of a Buick.
