Subaru Legacy
With the midsize sedan segment crumbling, Subaru has decided to axe the more affordable Touring and Limited models as well as the naturally aspirated 2.5-litre engine from the Legacy lineup for 2024. All that’s left is the turbocharged GT with 260 horsepower and the same old CVT. While the Legacy used to stand out with standard all-wheel drive, many competitors offer that technology. For a more versatile alternative, consider the Outback crossover.
