After 35 years in showrooms, the Subaru Legacy has officially bowed out of production in the United States. While there’s no new generation on the horizon, one independent designer has reimagined the sedan as if it were stepping into the electric era.

The fictional 2027 Subaru Legacy comes from Digimods Design, who shared the concept on his YouTube channel. Up front, the design takes cues from Subaru’s recent EVs, including the new Uncharted, the refreshed Solterra, and the Trailsport / E-Outback. The look is defined by slim LED headlights, a narrow grille, and a sharply contoured bumper.

The greenhouse and the sheet metal on the profile are carried over from the outgoing seventh-generation Legacy that debuted in 2019 and received a facelift in 2023. However, the designer has added new alloy wheels and fresh color options.

The rear end of the midsize sedan adopts a more conventional approach. A pair of elongated LED taillights is combined with a modern tailgate and a sleeker bumper. The latter houses a split diffuser, proving that this Subaru doesn’t have a combustion engine up front.

The design study doesn’t include renderings of the interior, but it’s easy to imagine a high-tech digital cockpit similar to the other Toyota-based Subaru EVs.

The outgoing Legacy sat on the Subaru Global Platform, which wasn’t designed with electric powertrains in mind. In a more speculative scenario, however, this hypothetical EV could borrow the dual-motor setup from the Uncharted crossover, offering 338 hp (252 kW / 344 PS) and Subaru’s trademark all-wheel drive.

For now, Subaru has given no sign that a Legacy EV is in the works. The brand’s electric strategy is centered on crossovers and SUVs developed with Toyota, which leaves little space in the lineup for a sedan.
