The Legacy line gains additional safety features for 2018. A new system automatically locks the doors at 12.5mph and unlocks when the vehicle is placed in park and driver’s door is opened. As an added measure, the system will unlock the doors in the event of airbag deployment. The cabin is now quieter and includes upgrades such as acoustic insulated side glass in front doors and insulated rear wheel well liners. A tire pressure monitoring system that displays individual wheel pressure is also standard.

The 2018 Legacy 2.5i Premium begins at $24,295 with upgrades including new 17-inch alloy wheels, 8.0 inch Multimedia Plus System as well as STARLINK Connected Services.
