About this generation

The fourth generation Legacy gained acclaim for its sophisticated styling, refined chassis dynamics, and the inclusion of the EE20 boxer diesel engine.

Launched in May 2003, the fourth-generation Legacy (BL sedan, BP wagon) achieved the Japan Car of the Year title. Built on a lighter, stiffer chassis featuring aluminum body panels, it offered enhanced dynamics and safety credentials. Engine options encompassed 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter flat-fours (naturally aspirated and single-turbocharged), the 3.0-liter EZ30 flat-six (245 hp), and, starting in 2008, the world's first horizontally opposed 2.0-liter EE20 turbo-diesel engine. The engineering setup effectively combined the low center of gravity inherent to the horizontally-opposed engine layout with a rigid chassis frame, delivering precise handling and composure across dry pavement and slippery surfaces alike. Engine bay packaging ensured optimal front-to-rear axle weight distribution alongside efficient thermal cooling under sustained driving loads.

A 2006 facelift updated exterior lighting and introduced the SI-Drive powertrain control system permitting variable throttle and shift mapping. Performance Spec.B models received 6-speed manual gearboxes derived from the Impreza WRX STI. Fourth-generation Legacy production ran globally through 2009. Designers placed a strong emphasis on cabin ergonomics, occupant visibility, and long-distance driving comfort. Robust mechanical reliability across the drivetrain and suspension components helped establish this generation as a benchmark choice within its competitive market segment worldwide.
