All-weather poise in a midsize sedan
Drive a Legacy
The Subaru Legacy pairs midsize sedan comfort with standard all-wheel drive on every trim. It's a confident pick for trips where the forecast won't commit.
The Legacy is a midsize, five-seat sedan with standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and a smooth 2.5-liter Boxer engine. It's built for weekday commutes and long road trips alike, and it's a smart starting point for any Subaru car rental.
On Turo, you pick the model year and trim that fit your plans, book from a local vehicle owner, and arrange pickup or delivery. Listings span several model years — 2025 was the final one.

All-wheel drive, standard on every trim
Every Legacy comes with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive with Active Torque Vectoring, which sends power to all four wheels. You get steady footing on rain-slick highways, snow-dusted city streets, and paved routes to mountain-town weekends.
EyeSight Driver Assist on every trim
Every Legacy includes EyeSight Driver Assist as standard equipment — no trim upgrade required. Its Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Centering helps you hold a set speed and following distance. It also helps keep the sedan centered in its lane.
That's a welcome co-pilot on a long interstate stretch or a rainy commute home. After dark, LED Steering Responsive Headlights turn with your steering input, so more of the curve ahead stays lit. Because this safety tech comes on every trim, you can compare Legacy listings on year, trim, and price with confidence. Whichever one you book, the same core driver-assist features ride along with you.
11.6-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
Most Legacy trims put an 11.6-inch touchscreen at the center of the dash. It supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so your maps, playlists, and podcasts appear without a cable in sight.
The Base trim swaps in a pair of smaller seven-inch screens instead. Every other trim — Premium, Limited, Sport, and Touring XT — gets the larger display. If a big, phone-friendly screen matters for your trip, check the trim in the listing before you book. Then pair your phone once you're settled in the driver's seat, cue up your route, and keep your eyes on the road ahead.
Stand out with a Legacy
The Legacy blends sedan composure and strong fuel economy with all-weather traction — a mix made for unpredictable weather. It's a natural fit for winter-city getaways, business travel, and couples or small families on a road trip. Want to weigh your options first?

Top Legacy features
Turbocharged Sport and Touring XT trims
The Legacy's top features are its turbocharged trims, road-trip efficiency, and a quiet, roomy cabin.
The Sport and Touring XT trims trade the standard engine for a 2.4-liter turbocharged Boxer with 260 hp and 277 lb-ft of torque. That's a big jump from the 182 hp in the Base, Premium, and Limited trims, and you'll feel it on highway merges and uphill passes.
The Sport adds a sport-tuned suspension and 18-inch gray wheels for a sharper look and feel. The Touring XT leans into comfort with Nappa leather and heated and ventilated front seats. Both deliver extra punch without giving up the all-wheel drive that comes on every Legacy. If performance tops your wish list, filter your search for these two trims and confirm the engine in the listing.
Road-trip efficiency and 640-plus miles of highway range
The Legacy's 2.5-liter engine earns 27 mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway. Pair that with an 18.5-gallon tank, and you're looking at 640-plus miles of highway range on a full fill-up.
That means fewer gas station stops on a long drive and more time for the places you actually came to see. It runs on regular fuel, too — no premium required, which keeps fill-ups simple wherever your route takes you. For a weekend loop or a cross-state drive, the Legacy covers serious ground between stops. Plan your fuel breaks around meals instead of the gauge.
Quiet, roomy cabin
The Legacy's cabin gives five passengers room to settle in, with 39.5 inches of rear legroom. Out back, the 15.1-cubic-foot trunk holds luggage for a long weekend or a week away.
Premium and higher trims add heated front seats and a windshield wiper de-icer — small touches you'll appreciate on a frosty morning. On the Sport and Touring XT, a 12-speaker Harman Kardon audio system turns the daily drive into a listening session. The quiet ride makes conversation easy, whether you're catching up with a travel partner or taking a call between meetings. It's a calm, comfortable space for the long haul.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Legacy
Get to know your Legacy
Before you book, check the listing's model year, trim, and included distance. Those details shape everything from horsepower to screen size to how far you can roam.
The Legacy comes in five trims: Base, Premium, Limited, Sport, and Touring XT. Base, Premium, and Limited use the 182-hp engine, while Sport and Touring XT get the 260-hp turbo. Screen size varies, too — the Base trim has smaller dual screens, and the rest get the 11.6-inch touchscreen.

Fill up with regular unleaded at any gas station.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
