The figures, translated
No fuel-use rating is published for this model year, so we leave those figures out.
What to expect from the Legacy
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk.
Who the Legacy suits
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Try before you buy
If the Legacy is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Try the Legacy on your commute, then decide.
Running costs
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Choosing the right one
A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
