2020 Subaru Liberty Final Edition introduced

KUALA LUMPUR: Subaru Australia introduced the Liberty sedan in its lineup 31 years ago, in 1989. But now, the automaker is all ready to bid farewell to the sedan that is more commonly known as the Legacy.

Why? Well, because of the sedan's low demand and depleting sales figure (2,441 units sold in the past two years). Overall, the Subaru Liberty spanned over six generations and the company sold a total of 153,700 units.

To commemorate the occasion, the automaker is rolling down the Liberty Final Edition which as per CarAdvice is priced at AUD 39,930 (approx. RM 120,039). Thus making the Liberty Final Edition AUD 1,990 (RM 5,982) pricer than the ongoing 2.5i Premium AWD variant on which the special edition is based. As per Subaru Australia, customers will be getting extra equipment worth AUD 6,400 (RM 19,240).

Subaru Liberty Final Edition equipment list includes -

• Front grille with new mesh pattern
• 18-inch STI alloy wheels
• Black exterior headlights
• Front lip spoiler
• Rear boot lid spoiler
• Harman Kardon sound system
• Several Final Edition badges all over
• Ultrasuede trim inserts
• Blue and black stitching with black accents

Subaru Liberty Final Edition exterior colour choices -

• Magnetite Grey with black wheels (offered in 15 cars)
• Crystal Black with silver wheels (offered in 10 cars)
• Crystal White with gunmetal wheels (offered in 6 cars)

Powering the Liberty Final Editions is the same 175 PS/235 Nm 2.5-litre four-cylinder boxer mill that is found under the standard model. Likewise, the power plant is coupled to a Lineartronic CVT and Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive System.
