The 2021 Chrysler 300 Touring AWD and 2021 Subaru Legacy Touring are 4x4 sedans that provide all-season capabilities to Alberta drivers. When it comes to what’s under the hood, however, one stands far above the other.Here is a closer look at the Chrysler 300 and Subaru Legacy.Â
Chrysler 300 Touring AWD
Engine: 3.6L Pentastar V6
Transmission: TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic
Drivetrain: All-Wheel Drive
Horsepower: 292
Torque: 260 lb-ft
Subaru Legacy Touring
Engine: 2.5L Boxer I-4
Transmission: CVT
Drivetrain: All-Wheel Drive
Horsepower: 182
Torque: 176 lb-ft
The 3.6L V6 makes the Chrysler 300 Touring AWD the clear winner in this comparison. The more powerful sedan is even capable of pulling trailers up to 454 kg. Additionally, its TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic transmission provides smoother shifts, better reliability, and more satisfying acceleration than the Subaru’s CVT.
These two sedans offer four-wheel drive, but the Chrysler 300 has an axle disconnect system. It can seamlessly switch from RWD to AWD and back again. This increases efficiency and provides drivers with all-season performance when they need it and sporty handling if conditions are fair.Â
