Subaru has launched the production of the new 2020 Legacy and Outback models at its Indiana factory in the U.S. The production launch of the all-new 2020 Legacy and Outback models was accompanied by a ceremony for the factory employees.

Subaru’s new mid-size models benefit from the company’s latest global platform which gives them much better rigidity and refinement, as well as improved handling and safety. The new Legacy and the new Outback can be optioned with either a naturally aspirated 2.5-liter flat-four unit or a turbocharged 2.4-liter engine.


Base models come with 182 hp and 176 lb-ft of torque, while the turbo XT models offer 260 hp and 277 lb-ft of torque. In both cases, customers are stuck with a CVT transmission, which is the sole option, and of course the company’s trademark Symmetrical AWD system as standard.

Other new features of the 2020 Subaru Legacy and Outback include a wide range of driver assistance and connectivity systems and an optional tablet-style 11.6-inch infotainment system with both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

Subaru will launch the new 2020 Legacy and Outback in the U.S. market this fall.
