As long as we get the 300bhp engine

I can't see us getting the top spec one. If we do though I'll have on launch but they need to spill the beans quickly.

How big is the Levorg? Is it Legacy or Impreza size?

[Ved]

It's an Impreza estate.

Is the name really grovel backwards? Odd.

Thank - that is what I had thought, but saw somewhere recently someone say it was Legacy-sized. Let's hope a decent engine goes into it!

It's a new model that sits between the current Impreza and new Outback, and similar in size to the 2008 model year Legacy. 1.6 Turbo I'm told...



Looks nice.

Nit sure about it if we only get the 1.6.. Might be worth a look though - could replace the 3.0 Outback

[Ved]

So I've just been told that it'll be the 1.6T 170BHP engine and likely will only come in CVT form. No plans for any 2.0 DIT at all which is very disappointing considering it's already in the Forester and the fast estate market is taking off wildly.

I give up with Subaru, I really do.

Crazy. Give people a choice Subaru UK...

Icorrect. It is the low version of the new Outback that is coming in April. It is replacing the old Legacy. Why they are calling it the Levorg and not the legacy I have no idea.

New Outback


Levorg

That needs the STI treatment. If we don't get it officially I can see Litchfied bringing one or two over.

The Legacy is the not jacked up Outback, the Levorg is based on the Impreza and is smaller than the Legacy.
