- The 2022 Subaru Legacy Limited XT is an affordable, yet practical sedan that rivals the Toyota Camry and Nissan Altima. Now on it's the 7th generation, the Subaru Legacy offers an alternative to crossover for buyers who aren't ready to give up a family sedan, and by opting for a Limited XT you're receiving a good amount of performance but also refinement for the interior. So let's see how the 2022 Subaru Legacy Limited XT compares to competitors.
Huge thank you to Subaru of Wakefield for letting me stop by to film this 2022 Subaru Legacy!

Just purchased this car. I like it so far. I see plenty reviews about the CVT. It’s fine for me. The Paddle shift I can do without. And far as price point. Try to find a Accord or Camry with Turbo and AWD. You won’t. Accord doesn’t have AWD and Camry it’s either AWD w/o Turbo or Turbo w/o AWD not both. I like both.
Thank you for the detailed and excellent review. I just traded my 2021 Legacy Premium for a 2023 Legacy 2023. Nice to know that the trade in price on a Subaru is excellent. I really do not think it is worth the expense to move to the turbo. The 2.5 gives you solid acceleration and merging on to highway is never an issue. I do not understand why every review complains about the Legacy being slow. However, you explained this perfectly. You do not buy a Legacy to burn out the tires upon acceleration. Pick up is fine and the ride is amazingly comfortable. You get a lot for your investment and you will not be disappointed. I think you captured the essence of the Legacy in the most objective manner.
Thanks Tony!
The desire for the turbo is primarily for safety in the western states. At sea level the 2.5 is plenty, but as you go up higher in elevation it looses a significant amount of power compared to the turbo. Merging to 70 in CO at 9,000 feet with 11,000 foot density altitude days is downright dangerous. But in general for a commuter or low lander the 2.5 is perfect in this car.
@@BostonAutoBlog i just learned something. Thank you for that information.
I had a 2019 crosstrek. Didn’t buy it after lease because of the crappy 2.0 engine. I love my 2022 2.4 Turbo. It’s quick!! For a couple hundred I added the rear spoiler. Looks great.
Very helpful review,thanks.
A good solid review! Tx.
Solid review. Thanks for this.
Great review!
It looks like a really great value and I'm thinking seriously about buying one or an Outback. Thanks for your thoroughness.
Great Review
I purchased a 22 XT earlier this year. Safest, most comfortable, and reliable AWD sedan you could ask for. When this gen debuted for the 2020 model year, I was definitely intrigued. The design was what I wanted. Understated lines that don’t follow some craze. The only other sedan I was truly contemplating was the 22 Accord, however, I’m just not a fan of its design. I don’t think it’ll age particularly well.
I'm thinking about getting this or an Outback, but I'm a little hesitant about CVTs. How is the one in Subarus?
@@AllStars2525 I’ve got about ~10k mi on the odometer now. This CVT is better than average honestly. From time to time it can get in the way of the XT motor, but otherwise it’s inoffensive.
Just purchase my wife this XT. She loves it. 😀👍
You can't attest to reliability unless you've had it at least 2 years
Seriously thinking of going into a SUBARU Legacy when lease is up on VW Tiguan……love this sedan, & I’ve looked at many🤩
I think it is the best choice in the mid size sedan. Subaru perfected the all wheel drive and you get a lot of features for the money. I have really enjoyed my 2021 and the ride is the best ever. And it has plenty of pick up without the turbo investment. The 0 to 60 timing is so dumb. I merge into highway traffic effortlessly. You will love the Legacy..
So far, I love it
Waiting to see the refresh. Subaru tends to make the refresh looks a little better, imo.
Refresh looks dumb! Does not look aggressive or like a luxury car
Nice review!
We like our 2022 Legacy Limited XT very much and considered an AWD Camry but to the best of my knowledge it doesn't come at any trim level anymore with seat memory and that is a deal-breaker for me. It used to. If anyone knows differently about the newer ones, please let me know!
Beautiful n nice car.
I like everything about this car except for the center stack. Unfortunately it is a deal breaker. This car is for a more mature audiences IMO. I only speak for myself but I would prefer a simpler infotainment.
Agreed
I felt the same way when we were shopping for our 2022 Legacy Limited XT, especially because my wife is kind of tech-averse and it's her daily driver not mine, but it's worked out fine. She's had no trouble with it, and I did the 2023 screen update, which improved the functionality a little bit. We also haven't experienced any of the screen lag issues that some people have talked about. All that said, I 100% would have preferred a simpler infotainment system and more physical climate controls!
Does it have a spare tire? Full size of temporary?
It does come with a spare and it's a compact wheel, no way you're driving on it for longer than you need to especially when the car weighs over 3800 lbs.
Omg I can’t wait to get my shit !!!
Am I crazy for wanting to trade in a alltrack for this?
Nope! Did you do it?
@@andyleotell no
They need to get rid of those chromes
Legacy or Camry? I'm debating what to get
@Operanix yes and camry has optional awd now
The Legacy is way better to drive, and the Camry is pretty generic. The Camry is more reliable, but that doesn't mean that the Legacy is far behind. They're very reliable too.
@@Tsuave30the camry awd sucks.
I've heard a lot of things about the CVT that make it sound bad, unideal, disappointing, etc. Did you ever have any of those thoughts while driving this?
They need fluid changes every 50k. Lifetime transmission fluid is a fairy tale.
Use synthetic oil and change the coolant early. I mean there's still a chance she'll milkshake on you but that's a subawew!
Besides that fluid change though, CVT's have become much more reliable and mature over the years. If you're after an automatic, it's alright. If you prefer manual, there's always the smaller Impreza or WRX, and those, are excellent.
@British Malaya Society not with a 5speed they ain't.....
@@alextube1101 Nothing wrong with a 5-speed. Very classic Subaru, the WRX should have that 6-speed option.
I have the '13 Impreza, and the CVT with paddle shifters is an excellent transmission. When shifted manually, it really takes off. One thing to keep in mind is that around 80k miles mine had the solenoid pack go out, a common wear item, which Subaru replaced under warranty. The car was driveable, but very sluggish. Took a few weeks to get it into service, but they do give you a loaner car. After 100,000 miles, you are on your own. But any automatic can fail with high mileage.
🙏
This car hauls ass this guy said “its not going to push you back in the seat”.. thats 100% wrong
I hate touch screen, it's dangerous when changing temperature, almost got into an accident.
Literally physical buttons on the side you goon
@@Yoursistersazz the system fan on/off, and supply duct choices are not , being touch screen. Turning off the A/C and outside air intake is touch screen . These actions should be executed either by the front passenger or when stopped. If I get in accident for inattentive driving because of the touchscreen controls I will be suing Subaru . I have the 2022 Legacy.
@@mikewallace8087 How is the car holding up? I want to buy a XT Touring
It looks so tall for a sedan
His voice so froggy n croaky.
🐸
What’s up Kermit? Actually, your voice is soothing…..
Cvt transmission = no sale
Idiot
D B , okay go buy something else .
