Subaru of America Inc. has announced that production of the Legacy sedan will end next year at the conclusion of the 2025 model year. The 2025 Legacy will arrive at Subaru retailers this spring and start at $24,895.

When it debuted in 1989, the Legacy became the first Subaru manufactured in the U.S. at Subaru’s Indiana plant, Subaru of Indiana Automotive.

The first-generation Legacy began a new era for Subaru with a mid-sized sedan and wagon that featured sleek styling and technology, such as multi-point fuel injection, four-wheel disc brakes and fully independent suspension. Later, the Legacy Wagon became the foundation for the Subaru Outback.

In total, the six generations of the Subaru Legacy have racked up over 1.3 million sales in the U.S., according to Subaru. Though the Legacy is the longest-running Subaru model line, its discontinuation reflects market shifts from passenger cars to SUVs and crossovers and Subaru’s transition to electrified and fully electric vehicles.

Subaru Corp., the parent company of Subaru of America Inc., has announced that it would produce eight EV models by the 2028 calendar year, including the Solterra EV, which debuted in the 2023 model year.
