Less than 300 hp can be easily managed with FWD, more than that becomes harder to control and AWD comes into place. I knew the Accord would win, hands down. The Subaru Engine is strong, but the CVT kills the performance and the AWD loses power to the wheels in performance testing. However, this race is pointless because no Legacy owner would buy one to race, they are mature, family cars, soft, comfy, roomy, smooth, stable, built for safety. The Accord still has that racy Honda vibe, it's more childish and surprinsingly fast for it's looks, it depends on what you want.

I own a 2021 Leagcy GT and it's a great car. Yeah, the CVT dumbs down the performance and driving a bit but I'm a middle aged guy who isn't out looking to race Hondas, though I can't help but to think how great it would be if they put the Toyota AT that's in the the BRZ. I believe the CVT is a mainstay for Subaru because that transmission helps them get their MPG numbers for an AWD car.

I have a turbo Subaru with a CVT, and I find that it's a little faster when not simulating the shifts. Just let the revs sit at the peak power spot. For me, start in manual, first gear, once it gets to the top of the fake first gear drop it into drive and let the RPM sit at the peak. Not sure it would help in this situation though. Weight is clearly a huge factor in this outcome. Some models of CVT Subarus (or at least my Forester) have S and S# modes. In S#, it actually raises line pressure in the transmission considerably. It results in much quicker shifts and a much tighter feeling off the line.

Very nice comparison. It is not surprising because the Subaru only have 8 horse power more but it's a lot heavier and also the AWD will reduce some of the power going to the wheels. The Subaru needs 300 HP and a proper transmission and it will be an ideal everyday car in all weather conditions. They are genuinely built.

@ IKR? My dad just bought a ‘25 Accord Hybrid Touring. It’s so much different than my 2.0T. I will have to say that it is objectively better than mine in many areas but when it comes down to pure driving pleasure, mine is superior. I sold my ‘20 two years ago and picked up a ‘21 Accord Touring that only had 4k miles on it. After 2 years, I’m still smitten with it. Just drove his on a 3 hour trip and I will concede that his is quieter, smoother, more comfortable, has better technology and is super refined. It just doesn’t thrill. Two Accords with two different purposes. I love my ‘21 and he loves his ‘25.

I drive an Ascent and it share common characteristics as the Legacy GT. Slow and slumbering. No drive modes and the CVT with the fake shifts programmed into it just plain sucks. The last time I had fun driving a cvt was my 2017 Forester XT with SI-Drive.

@@phuzaxeman for it's category, the Ascent has more pep compared to its normally aspirated counterparts as it should because of the turbo.

Except for the WRX and WRX STI Subaru have been de-sportifying their Cars. They stopped making Turbo charged Legacies and then started back because of public outcry but made them less performance than the GT/GT Spec b models and the GT models from the 5th generation. Then they stopped making Turbo Forresters. So there is a general theme of making their cars less performance oriented. While other companies have been increasing their power output Subaru has maintained the power on the STI @ 305 HP for 10 years.

My 2018 Accord 1.5T just had a fuel injector fail at 58k error code P0172 (posted on my channel). Modern Honda look amazing but once the 3yr/36k warranty expires you're on your own and you have no idea how expensive modern Honda engines are to fix. Oil changed at 80%, Shell regular used 80% of the time, always did warm up the car in the winter. Dealer so out of touch they recommended brake fluid replacement at 30k. I've never seen this part fail in ANY of my past cars. When asked why the injector failed so early Dealer said they see them all the time and cost of replacement is $1600-$2500 (must replace all 4) and the new injectors warranty is only for 12k/12mos! I was in love and bought the 1st Accord on the lot with series ending in -0001 but when I made a case with Honda to see if it could be part of a bad batch all I got was the VM of the case manager for weeks on end. Fool me once shame on me, fool me twice...

You can't really brake torque that CVT. I have a 3.0r outback and I have the accord 2.0t until 45mph or so where he starts catching up again if I launch well. The legacy is bland. Also my outback has a horrible dead spot between 68mph and 80mph. It then hits harder and you can feel the timing change. But most cars with equal power catch up slightly around that speed and and then after 80mph it starts pulling again. Weird ass car. Might be something wrong with the VVT.

The Legacy CVT has a manual mode and paddle shifters. Why didn't you try them? I have a 2021 Legacy Touring XT (US trim name for the Canadian GT). It does make a difference.

Don't agree with the comments about a CVT not being a fun drive. I have legacy Dit and in sports sharp mode, the box auto shift and holds the revs high making for a very engaging drive. Handling is superb. The 2.0 GT dit is more powerful than model used in this video and is faster 0-60 than the accord

The legacy is an amazing package. The one thing that hurts it is the CVT. I owned a 20 GT and that’s its weakest link. Where it excels is a drag race if the road is even a little wet.
