Safety
Both Vehicles were named a Top Safety Pick+ by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety but thanks to the new EyeSight System on the Subaru Legacy it was rated as superior in front crash prevention.
Subaru Symmetrical AWD vs Honda FWD
Every Subaru Legacy comes standard with Symmetrical AWD. The Honda Accord on the other hand does not even have an AWD option. This may not seem like that big of a deal but here in the Midwest we tend to get quite of snow during the winter and the peace of mind that comes from owning an AWD car shouldn't be taken for granted.
The Video below shows how the Subaru Symmetrical AWD system compares to the 4WD and AWD systems of other car makers.
