Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd released the 2015 Subaru WRX at the #LAAutoshow to a large crowd of interested press and brought the Legacy Concept with them as well. The popular pocket rocket which is renowned and loved around the world for it's ability to rally, drift and handle, has a new boxer 4 cylinder engine pumping out 268 hp from it's direct injected block and 258 ft lbs of torque. 80% of the bodywork on this vehicle is unique to the 2015 Subaru WRX which is on a new chassis and has a 1 incl longer wheel base. The WRX has symmetrical all wheel drive, a large boost gauge display screen, tidy interior and promises to be the best handling WRX ever. This is until they bring out the STI hot rod version at a later date.
The Legacy Concept is handsome and reminiscent of a GM design. The Legacy will also have symmetrical AWD and we hope to see this model on the showroom floor as a competitor to the Mazda 6 and mid size sedans asap.
