Subaru Legacy 5 (BR)

Mid-Size Wagon

Product Gallery

Product Overview

Subaru Legacy 5 Station Wagon (chassis code BR) is a mid-size station wagon in production from 2009 to 2014. It was available with a range of flat-4 and flat-6 engines that displaced 2.0 to 2.5 liters.

Compared to the Gen5 Legacy Wagon, the BR model has an even cleaner design that from some angles remind us of the greats of the 1990s, though due to regulations the car is a "fatter" version of it.

More potent engines are used, including the 3.6L EZ36 flat-6 and the turbocharged 2.5L flat-4. Manual transmission remains available. Unfortunately, Subaru is stuck with an old 5-speed automatic, which is mated to the H6 engine. For the H4-powered cars, a CVT is used.
