re: Which car would you pick ?

2019 Subaru Legacy

It has 2.5L engine with major oil burning issues (shows up around 50,000 miles) and not enough power. It also has a CVT which can be annoying. If they let you get the 3.6L model, this could be an interesting option.

That thing has been beaten with an ugly stick. Why would you do this if your company is paying for the gas? Toyotas don’t have Apple Car Play but the Camry does have a comfortable interior. It’s just extremely ugly in a “design by focus group” kind of way.

2019 Ford Fusion

No CVT, comfortable on the highway. Older but attractive design. Decent Infotainment. Lots of standard features including CarPlay.

2019 Nissan Altima

New one looks nice and has a (very) comfortable interior, but still has CVT. And Nissan’s CVT are notoriously unreliable and tends to keep the engine at a droning, steady RPM, which can be annoying. Nissan used to make CarPlay as an option. Not sure if they still do.

Of these 4, I would go with the Fusion. If they are getting you a higher trim model, I might also consider the Nissan. I wouldn’t bother with the Subaru or Camry.
