2016 Subaru Legacy vs 2016 Honda Accord: Design
The Legacy and the Accord are both midsize sedans; however, the Legacy has a more distinctive style. It features a more dominant front fascia and sleek, aerodynamic body lines that don't negate the power. In addition, the Legacy is shorter than the Accord and not as wide; despite this, it actually offers more interior passenger volume than the Accord.

2016 Subaru Legacy vs 2016 Honda Accord: Performance
Here in Colorado, it's important that whatever vehicle you drive be ready for all kinds of weather and road conditions--and the Legacy fits the bill. Subaru symmetrical all-wheel drive is standard on the Legacy, giving you the control you need. The Accord, on the other hand, comes only with front-wheel drive. What's more, the horizontally opposed Subaru Boxer engine on the Legacy creates a low center of gravity, excellent balance, and a quieter ride with fewer vibrations.

2016 Subaru Legacy vs 2016 Honda Accord: Safety Features
Your safety is incredibly important, and both the Legacy and the Accord are remarkably safe. They've both received the rank of Top Safety Pick+ from IIHS, as well as five-star ratings on the NHTSA Front Driver Crash Test and the NHTSA Front Passenger Crash Test. Although the Accord has its own crash prevention system, only the Legacy has Subaru EyeSight, a driver assist system that combines adaptive cruise control, pre-collision braking, lane departure and sway warning, and lane keep assist functions.
