ehsnils Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Bring in the VTD transmission for the CVT.Dual range on the CVT to allow for better maneuvering at low speeds (offroad and similar).Hybrid vehicles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesA Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Rehire Italian designers. Stop making the cars look like Transformer toys. Find someone else to give names to your cars (Levorg? Very strange...) Sell Legacy GT and WRX wagons with manual transmission option in the U.S. again. This time use the new gen direct injection engines for improved fuel economy.

laufu Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Bring in the VTD transmission for the CVT.Dual range on the CVT to allow for better maneuvering at low speeds (offroad and similar).Hybrid vehicles. 1. Yes, more VTD Subarus please. Are the WRX and the Levorg 2.0GT the only Subarus still using VTD? 2. I thought X-Mode was a cheap (for Subaru) replacement for the dual range. 3. Not sure how I feel about this. It would like to see an improved version of the hybrid system used in the XV. But all the Subaru hybrid concepts have shown an ICE powering the front wheels and electric motors for the rear. Would a hybrid with engine powering the front and electric motors powering the back be considered a real Subaru? Or skip the Hybrid and go straight to electric vehicles. 4. How about bringing back SI-Drive for more Subarus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEE-OTTO Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Manual transmission option for the Outback and Legacy (they make them for CAN may as well reserve a few for the US) Bump in hp for the DIT N/A cars If the EPA and USDOT gets dismantled (emissions provisions) as promised I would like to see if any of the Japanese auto-makers will enter back into some kinda of performance mid-tier shootout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spb Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Bring Legacy GT back. The Legacy pie has grown over last few years. The LGT slice has grown proportionately. I want an LGT and just hate that I have to look at 7+ year old cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opie Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Better front bumper paint Availability of manual transmission on all models, & trim levels. (I don't want a base model, I want a Limited or Touring with a MT!) Performance trim on all models Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neal Cassady Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 More unique styling, (GC8, Bugeye-Hawkeye etc) instead of looking like most other vehicles on the market. Though I realize this is driven by sales (what most people think they want) as well as aerodynamics/mpg. You could apply this to most manufacturers though. 2006 Legacy GT Wagon - Regamasters, Evo X Recaros, STI 6MT, Brembo 6-Pots (in progress) @regashiii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fedaykin Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Sunglass holder that doesn't rattle like a cheap, 20 year old car trim. Mount a spray nozzle that can wash the reverse camera lens whenever you wash the windscreen. Chevy Bolt has that haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLlegacy Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 What, you like drag races, but hate long twisty drives through a canyon or mountain road? Have you driven a tesla, low center of gravity and excellent road feel especially in the twisties. That low slung battery does wonders for handling.

That low slung battery does wonders for handling. Might be great for handling, but your power delivery is going to drop quickly. The batteries can't handle continuous load. Good for quick shots or lower load longer term. http://www.caranddriver.com/features/tesla-model-s-p85d-at-lightning-lap-2016-feature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
