The Subaru Legacy Has Reached the End of the Production Line

On September 12, 2025, the final Subaru Legacy sedan was driven off the line at the company’s factory in Lafayette, Indiana. The last example was pretty typical for the nameplate. Painted Magnetite Gray, it was equipped with a 182-hp 2.5-liter flat-four, all-wheel drive, a nice stereo, and leather seats.
The last Legacy isn’t exactly what you’d call exciting stuff, especially if you grew up with a poster of a bright blue WRX STI launching itself over a gravel hill on your wall and went on to name your children Colin and 22B. The Legacy hasn’t really been a Subaru enthusiast choice for many years, neither fitting in with would-be rally car drivers nor plaid-wearing outdoorsy types.

How Subaru’s EVs Stay True to the Brand With Toyota as a Partner

Developing a car is expensive, especially when it uses new technology like electric motors and a big battery pack. So it makes sense for automakers to team up on developing one or more vehicles. Subaru and Toyota are doing just that on a series of EVs that began with the Solterra and bZ4X duo, which arrived for the 2023 model year.

In the coming months, the two brands are expanding their EV lineups to three vehicles each. Subaru announced an updated 2026 Solterra and a larger 2026 Trailseeker in April at the New York Auto Show, and Toyota revealed a revised 2026 bZ (dropping the 4X from the name), a smaller 2026 C-HR and a larger bZ Woodland in May. Just this past week, Subaru revealed the C-HR’s sister vehicle, the new Uncharted compact crossover.

Edmunds was on hand at the Uncharted reveal, and we asked Subaru product planners how the brand makes sure its electric vehicles have a Subaru character given the Toyota relationship.

Subaru’s Approach To Autonomous Cars Requires New Roads

Whether they’re from Silicon Valley or the Motor City, companies around the world are trying to make truly autonomous cars a reality. Most of those companies are attempting this from the car side of things. The car handles everything: it has sensors to read the road, and on-board computers to process what’s happening and to control the vehicle as needed. The advantage of this technique is that the cars can,… Read More →

Subaru Teases New Performance Model, Possibly a Reborn WRX STI

The first Subaru WRX STI debuted in 1994 and took a full decade to reach audiences in the United States. The last STI bowed in 2021 but is still greatly missed. Subaru does build the WRX in its current 271-hp form, and there’s a tS model with big Brembo brakes and Recaro seats, but we’re still waiting for a proper STI variant. Now, some tantalizing news out of Japan suggests… Read More →

Here’s Why Subaru Still Uses Boxer Engines

Subaru is a brand that’s known to do things a bit differently than other mainstream car manufacturers. All but one of its cars come with standard all-wheel-drive, it has a historic commitment to occupant protection, and all of its internal combustion-engined cars feature a unique horizontally opposed engine layout. These horizontally opposed engines are called “boxer engines,” and they are oriented differently than every other engine configuration on the market.… Read More →
