What is it? The Legacy Concept hints at the styling of the next-generation Subaru Legacy. This concept has a silhouette that is similar to the current-generation model but with a few changes, some that will make production and some that wont. The greenhouse appears taller than the current model and much larger than many current family sedans. The interior has a dash and door panels that look almost ready to be produced, though the center stack is more show car than production car. This center display features a full-color touch screen that controls all of the navigation, climate, and radio interfaces. The rear-seat passengers have a similar display to handle the climate system for the second-row.

What's new or notable? While the video camera rear-view mirrors, deep chin spoiler, and LED headlights may not make production, the overall shape of the concept gives a good indication of the future Subaru Legacy.
