Pour one out for the Subaru Legacy, as after 36 years in the company’s North American lineup, the sedan will cease production in the spring of 2025, marking the end of its run after that model year.<\/p>\n

Subaru cited “market shifts from passenger cars to SUVs and crossover,” as well as its own transition to electrified vehicles, as the reasons for its decision to discontinue the Legacy.<\/a> Indeed, sales of the sedan haven’t been great.<\/p>\n Read: 2025 Subaru Legacy And Outback Largely Hold The Line On Pricing<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Subaru of<\/a> America sold 4,398 Legacys in the first quarter of 2024, down 13.1 percent as compared to the same period a year earlier, and made it the third worst-selling vehicle in the lineup, behind the struggling Solterra and the niche BRZ.<\/p>\n window._taboola = window._taboola || []; window._taboola = window._taboola || []; As you may have surmised, that means that the supposedly mass-market, comfortable, practical mid-size sedan, was outsold by even the performance-focused, enthusiast-oriented WRX<\/a>, of which Subaru sold 4,404 in Q1.<\/p>\n That doesn’t mean that the Legacy won’t be missed, though. Since 1989, when the car was first introduced, Subaru has sold<\/a> more than 1.3 million examples. More than 94 percent of them are still on the road today, suggesting that the people who have them, really love them.<\/p>\n
