Presently we are driving the Subaru Outback and Forester 2.0i CVT, and are again very impressed by its superb technology and road manners. The MY 2019 of the Levorg is therefore quite interesting.

It has been further optimized for our European markets, and besides a redesigned bonnet, the more important news is what lies under the hood: it has the latest development of the 2.0i atmospheric boxer engine, coupled to the Symmetrical AWD four-wheel drive and Lineartronic CVT transmission. We appreciated this drivetrain now in both test cars we are driving, and it is formidable indeed.

According to Subaru, the new Levorg has a new, softer suspension and steering response to deliver higher driving comfort and better driving dynamics.

The EyeSight Driver Assist technology of the 2019 Levorg has also been further improved with functions to detect pedestrians and cyclists moving in the same direction of travel of the vehicle faster, which means that the car will brake earlier in an emergency.

In our country, the Levorg 2.0i is available from June at dealers from € 29,995 for the GT Luxury Lineartronic CVT and from € 32,995 for the GT-S Premium Lineartonic CVT.

Good to know that the model name Levorg is based on three words: LEgacy, reVOlutionand touRinG…

Stay posted for our test reports, which will appear soon!
